I hate that the actually very good notion that we should show trans people the basic respect everyone deserves and not let them be discriminated against has just completely snowballed into pretending that men can be women and that straight people can be gay
Trans people deserve the same healthcare as everyone else and the autonomy to choose cosmetic surgery/hrt on top of that with informed consent if they are in a position to be able to receive informed consent. Trans people deserve to be treated humanely in day to day life and not be constantly asked invasive questions by strangers. Trans people deserve to be able to play sports, albeit not on teams specifically designed for the sex they do not belong to. They are people. And none of that changes the fact that you cannot change your sex which is the basis of people's sexuality. I wish more people understood that all of the above beliefs can and do and should coexist.
