>>> How many here have ever met a trans?

I had a patient, for about 15 years or so, starting about 30 years or so - a woman who transitioned into a man. Like you said, that was long before it became cool - and it was the outcome of a long personal struggle. He married a lady who had kids from a problematic previous marriage, and they were happy together. The kids loved him.

Imo it’s just a look over here issue. Iran & China + the green new $1.9 trillion deal should be the headline.

I had a litigation around 2000 in a dispute involving two optometrists. My client, one of the two, insisted he’d gone to school with the woman on the other side (who was trying to screw him out of his practice). My client claimed the Opposing party had been a man before, in optometry school. I didn’t believe it until I took her deposition. Big hands and a prominent Adam’s apple were the giveaways.

I do not believe I have. It would have freaked me out if one came in my office for tax work years ago.

Today, it is just meh.

I really try not to judge any of the "Alphabet People". But it is like brain surgery to me. There is not one thing I understand about it.

I have a number of gay friends on Facebook and I don't think they like me very much.
