That seems unlikely. Across the board, they hate trans people more than homosexuals. It's more likely that homosexuality becomes a crime, then trans people just get shot on sight.

Loopholes are always accidental by definition. Besides, I took inspiration from a Canadian news article reporting that some gender-affirming therapy centers actually used to be gay conversion therapy centers. They had to adapt once gay conversion therapy was banned. The reasoning behind it is that if gays become women and lesbians become men, they are no longer homosexuals. In other words, a loophole allows them to basically continue converting people to heterosexuality. I wish I could post a link to the article, but I unfortunately can't find it anymore.

I also like to think that it may also be a form of eugenics. Gender-affirming surgery renders patients sterile, which means they're removing homosexuals from the gene pool. This is at least what I came up with while trying to understand why religious zealots would do that.

Red states are passing all kinds of shit that is blatantly unconstitutional, because their activist judges on the supreme court will uphold them. Sometime this decade we are going to see a supreme court case so disastrous, it will be our generation's Dred Scott decision and tear the country in half. It's inevitable at this point.

I wonder if I can predict the case you're referring to. Below are some of my guesses.

• It becomes legal for children to purchase, possess and carry firearms so that "they can be protected in case of a school shootout".
• Homosexuality becomes a crime again, but a loophole allows gays and lesbians to exist if they become transgender.
• Public schools now include mandatory Christian studies and baptism, and confirmation is required to graduate from high school.
• Land owners are now required to pay taxes to a Christian Church of their choice.
• Extramarital sex is now a crime, but a loophole allows rape victims to marry their rapists to avoid prosecution.
• All hate crime laws are now abolished.
• Marital rape is no longer a crime again, and domestic violence becomes justified in cases where the wives refuse to obey their husbands.

I'm too young for the first 3 so I went with the Ouya, the interviews with its spokeswoman where she clearly knew nothing about the console still astounds me. I don't understand how anyone bought into it.

Can you share links? I'm curious.

You can't even spell porn correctly.
