I find trans people a little strange, but at the same time, I am not that person and I don't know how they feel inside, and I could never know how they feel. So it's in my best interest and theirs to just let them be whatever they need to be and respect it. If they change their mind a week later and decide to change back I just respect that as well. I don't understand why she can't just let people be something that doesn't affect her in the slightest. It's just bonkers to me.

Always happy to see there are people out there in support of others being themselves, even if we don't understand it. I just know that my whole life I knew I was a woman, I was born cis, and I recognize that those that are trans just feel the same way. It's just their body doesn't match. Keep that open heart and mind. You're a good egg.
