a friend of mine is a truck driver and today he was training a new hire, who he described as "an old redneck dude". he said it was going alright until the old dude said "you know about them transgender folks?"

... uh oh

"yeah I'm thinking if them transgender folks can get such nice beards with testosterone maybe i should see if i can get it too, maybe finally get a nice beard growing in here..."

everything turned out better than expected!

gender affirming care for everyone!

@tarajdactyl DYKES TO WATCH OUT FOR had a perfect gag where, in the background of one panel you see a TV interviewer soliciting the most country lookin' old white guy's opinion on gay issues, and then, either in that strip or a later one, you get his extremely thoughtful and nuanced reply.
