Last week, the Kansas Republican Party approved a resolution that opposes “all efforts to validate transgender identity.”
Trans people simply do not exist, I guess, in Kansas, at least in the minds of Republicans.
Now, to be fair, the Kansas GOP’s new Hate Resolution stated that the party “recognizes the dignity of every human being, including those who identify as LGBT,” but affirmed “God's design for gender as determined by biological sex and not by self-perception” and opposed “all efforts to validate transgender identity.”
You know, God says so, though I missed the part in the Bible where God looked at a trans person and was like, “Oh hell no. I didn’t approve that.”
And, of course, the GOP in Kansas aligned itself with one of those oxy-moronically named groups, the Family Policy Alliance of Kansas, who backed the resolution out of, what the groups asshat, er, president, no asshat, Eric Teetsel, right, said was “motivated by love”,
Love, in the minds of people like Republicans in Kansas and people like bigot and transphobe Eric Teetsel, means that you can just say, “Sorry, trans people, I don’t see you.”
Look, asshats, trans Americans are not unicorns or leprechauns; they actually exist. And just because you choose to pass a resolution stating that you’re burying your head in the sand, won’t change that.
Trans Americans deserve all the same rights and respect as anyone, and if you think God hates trans people, you don’t know God.
She is Love.

ReplyDeleteNot tapping my shoes and going to Kansas!
ReplyDeleteI thought you knew, everything they do is motivated by love... love of hate, love of bigotry, love of discrimination... in fact, their self esteem will only let them out of the crack in the sidewalk if they use the word 'love.'
ReplyDeleteI have family there. I don't go visit.
ReplyDeleteI was born there, but I have stopped claiming it - - just embarrassing
ReplyDeleteThis doing it 'out of love' argument is every bit as specious as claiming that anti-gay legislation is being enacted to 'protect' LGTB 'victims' - precisely the claim that the Nazi's initially used to justify anti-Jewish laws before going publicly, viciously and openly anti. Not just similar, it's the very same.
ReplyDeleteThe ignorant asshats have left me (and themselves) confused again. Which is it? Do they recognize "the dignity of every human being, including those who identify as LGBT,” or do they oppose “all efforts to validate transgender identity.” I'm just asking -- "out of love."
ReplyDeleteLove is accepting people as they need to be, not forcing your ideals and beliefs on them.
ReplyDeleteAnother state not to visit.
