The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Now here's the test. What if the EMT is gay? What if they are trans? Jewish? Atheist? Pick your least favorite marginalized group. Now...they're still the crack EMT that saved lives in battle. But their identity is something that people with way too much fucking time on their hands harp about when their bigot mask slips.

You can be whoever one wants to be, I don’t give a rats behind.
I DON’T want a trans, who is actually a man sharing the bathroom with me.

I was born and raised in NYC, trust me, I’ve seen it all growing up in Manhattan, you just don’t
pay attention to it or as kids we laugh and giggle with my best girlfriend as we roamed Central Park or riding the subways.
Tourists and visitors see the sights, the empire state building, times square etc. They don’t see
what goes on in the inner city, they are in protected areas.

As a mam you want to dress as a woman? Fine, I don’t care, just stay out of the ladies room when I am in there.

Being gay or whatever, I don’t care. If you can help me in a time of need, I welcome your help.

If you’re a trans female, I don’t care, if my next door neighbor is a trans, I don’t care, s/he
just might help me with my garden work and we share a cola while out in the back yard.

While I am in a public bathroom and you’re a trans..stay the hell out till I am done and left the bathroom. Do I make myself clear?
