and even let her ride in the front.

That's what my mother did right after she moved
to Dallas with my dad, and the people on the bus
told her not to do that.

She was floored. She wasn't used to that kind of
racism in Los Angeles.

Nothing scares a MAGA worse than being in a room with a gay man, or someone who has transitioned to a woman, or a man who dresses like a woman, or a virile black or brown man, or somebody whose sex they can't identify, or a woman acting outside of her submissive "gender role", or a woman who controls her body.

Dig into any of their social issues deep enough, and you will find a sexual hang-up in play at the root of it.
