TBF most people don’t have any problem with “I take my medication in private.” Some people do, but most people don’t.
It’s the
“and you have to pay for it when I’m in prison.”
And
“You have to let me play sports against biological girls. You can’t make me play sports against boys - it has to be girls”.
And
Trans women that demand to use the women’s restrooms before they are effectively transitioned.
Those things effect such a vanishingly small number of people, but they are perfect wedge issues. The LGBT+ community has spent its entire political capital on those three issues. They have failed to make a cogent argument that convinces people outside of the community that these are necessary things.
The damage has been profound.
