This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Courtesy is sex offense? I can only imagine they seek to cheapen the term so that it means nothing, so that their legitimate offenses seem not as bad?

It’s disgusting and heartbreaking to know they don’t care about the mental health of the people they claim to be “saving”

A 2018 study (one of the most recent in this field of research) found that trans youth who were able to use their correct names (those that align with their gender identity) in multiple contexts had a lower risk of depression and suicide, according to the Suicide Prevention Resource Center.

“We showed that the more contexts or settings where they were able to use their preferred name, the stronger their mental health was,” the author of the study, Stephen T. Russell, University of Texas at Austin professor and chair of human development and family science, said.

What if I call Billy “Barbera” and continue to reference him as a “she”, not in support of him but to mock him? Wouldn’t that just make me your average middle-school gym teacher?

Traditional gender roles are so sacred that these crazy hillbillies make anything outside of that illegal. If someone proposed a bill like this where I live it would be the end of their career.
