When I was a GM and Owner we hired these types and gave them a little poorly ventilated room in the back with no windows, but plenty of RF, and a soldering iron (with real lead solder). After a few years back there, some of them started getting a little whacky.
That's how you people control intelligent people. You are just like Biff in "Back To The Future", the bully who controlled George McFly.
Actually, 70 years ago, many Christians shunned these bright people. 100 years ago, they locked them in mental institutions. Today we better understand that they are wonderful people, but just operate slightly differently than the average Joe. The scientific community has even developed a spectrum to help lay people understand their gifts and deficits.
But like 70 years ago, today's Christians are prosecuting people for being on a gender spectrum that is slightly different than the average Joe. 100 years ago, they would be imprisoned. Today most people have recognized that there is also a gender spectrum and the gifts they offer the world.
When you criticize people who are different than you (in their gender expression), you fail to recognize the hurt you may have faced in your life still exists for others.
That's why I may beat you up for your stupid ideas, but I would never make fun of where you fit in the world.
