Don't get it twisted this attack on trans people in Kansas (how did they identify the people they sent those letters to? They have a list, the monsters.) is a trial, a test. Let them get away with it they will move on to the next smallest group they feel they could target without public backlash.

That is how this works.

Are you an "LGB" person ?
Are you enjoying an upstanding gay marriage with a white picket fence?
Are you a black American (oh wow) but not (oh no no) an immigrant ?

Are you reading the room ?

We're next! We are next.

It's kind of obvious that what the Republican Kansas legislator would like to do is make being LGBT illegal. I find it somewhat promising that they have done something technical, creepy, and obnoxious instead. But they are pushing that boundary in the most obvious ways.

They are still too scared to do what they really want. The public ought to be disgusted.

I am.

I'm also very curious if any cis people got the letter by mistake. It seems likely.

Nearly all of the people who have been harassed in public over restrooms rules tend to be cis women who look a little butch or like a bowtie or something.

This isn't a flaw it's a feature. Because part of the purpose is to make a gender dress and behavior code for adults.

No men shall wear pink or nail polish. No women shall have whiskers on their chin or leave the house without a layer of foundation.

@futurebird my best guess, the list is compiled from historical records of which Kansas residents have gotten the gender marker changed on their ID.

Monstrous regardless.

@bruceiv @futurebird

There are people who are cis who have had the gender marker changed on their IDs to correct administrative errors.

They have gotten caught up in the current anti-trans moral panic too.
