Know something first

-

I think before passing laws that affect someone’s personal life, perhaps you should know something about them. I haven’t heard of any conference­s inviting trans people to share their life stories, hardships, discrimina­tion and life-affirming changes that transition­ing brings. How can arrogant, ignorant and dismissive people make laws about a segment of our population without really knowing anything about them?
