You joke but there are trans people in conservative states, and in the south those people are more likely to be people of color and/or people without means to leave.
I understand you likely didn’t mean it that way, but often we get dismissive of the south as a hellhole (which it is) without taking into account the people who actually live there who are disenfranchised and victimized by their own states.
When I was in kindergarten I wanted to be a teacher because I was convinced I coul do a better job being in charge than my teachers did lol Now I’m working on becoming self employed so I can be in charge of my work. It’s funny how that stayed with me.
