So they're revoking their driver's licenses!

So just totally dropping the pretense that this isn't about cruelty for cruelty's sake, huh? I mean that excuse is just nonsense; that man who looks like a King of the Hill extra with a better beard (why do so many trans guys gravitate to this look anyway?) is not going to be more recognizable because there's an "F" next to the color picture of his face.

Also beside the point but wow does Florida have nice looking licenses.

Yeah it's pretty unsubtle. Hope the courts overturn it. I'm worried because one of my trans online friends lives in Florida.

Wish I had MAJOR cash to burn. I'd rent some buses and give folks a ride out of the state, preferable giving them enough cash to get properly relocated. A fellow can daydream.

Yes, if they leave the state then they might escape the gas chambers they're setting up.

Half-kidding.

I think it's because they can. Before they couldn't grow a beard short of hormonal issues.

Perhaps it also could cover up any remaining feminine features, which could make them look less like a man and more like a boy.

Just a theory.

But you are right you will have a hard time identifying a transman short of a cheat card. Like being forced to have your ID say you are female.
I got nothing to say here.
