Tangent, I'm afraid. First of all I confess some indifference to these "trans" issues, given that over half the world's wildlife has disappeared since 1970, we are at the befinning og the greatest mass extinction since the Cretaceous collision, democracy in the USA is coming to an end, the world is entering a period of instability and violence that will likely dwarf the Second World War, and on and on and on ,,,

... yet the hot subject of debate is what a writer of children's books thinks about trans people.

Priorities, please.

I don't care what she thinks or says. I've known many transgendered people, dated a few of them, care about them (can't say the same for the "nonbinary" crowd), and if anyone wants to raise my taxes to help them, it is with my blessing.

It's not that we can't care about more than one issue at a time. But ... who gets to use which bathrooms? A lot of countries don't even gender-segregate them.
