      I’m just trying to be a little bit more optimistic about things, I feel like we’ve had some real progression in the last decade. My workplace has tampons in the men’s toilets which would have seemed inconceivable ten years ago. Everyone I know has been accepting of my friends that transitioned, even ones that vote Tory. I guess people on the internet just really want to be pessimistic and cry about how bad everything is. I’ll stop arguing here, feel free to continue the doom and gloom.
