20% Under 40 Identify as LGBTQ

The point is that just because there are organizations that say something doesn't mean that it happens to people often.

No, it doesn't happen to people often because not many people are transgendered who have their own pronoun preferences. Nobody was claiming it is a large number of people but how the movement has become silly when you have to be careful of your pronouns and unfair when males who identify as females are defeating women in track meets.

So there's nothing to worry about then.
 
A fellow world traveler. I like that. Nice to know I am speaking to someone that has been outside the U.S. for something other than a vacation at some resort. I honestly feel most of the worlds prejudices would be non existent if everyone visited other countries and got to know the worlds peoples and cultures. All of my travel is maritime work related or when I served.

Likewise. Americans are notoriously isolated and notoriously uncurious about the world. I really think that every person should live abroad for an extended period of time in a place that is culturally dissimilar to the one they're from. I agree with you that it would revolutionize tolerance, understanding, linguistics, cuisine, etc.

You are a smart person. Pleasure to know you. Hope we can keep politics from getting in the way of what I expect to be interesting conversations.

Agreed with APL's point. Furthermore, it's not the first time a relatively small group has over-inflated their numbers and their problems in order to attract national interest.

As pointed out earlier, the anti-gun movement inflated their numbers by 300% to add drama to their cause. The RWNJs inflated a few incidents of voter fraud into a national crisis and Voter ID. The facts make it clear that the LGBTQ has done the same with their numbers.

A liar is a liar regardless of their cause.
 
Riddle me this: if female athletes complain about "male" athletes competing with them, then why did they participate? :thinking:
 
No. Smart ass. You trying to goad me? Hmmm?

It's my pleasure. We can disagree about politics and still have interesting conversations. I look forward to more of them.
