It's philosophically related. Very much related and of much more interest these days. Specially since transgender people have such high risk of mental illness and suicide, they and close ones need to be made aware and informed about theoretical issues regarding their beliefs. If they are served only the one-sided ideological views so not to hurt them emotionally, they are not really protected, but only encouraged to risk their lives in the hope the world will change by force and not by argument and debate.

Do you think that any trans person can reach adulthood or even puberty without being aware of the "theoretical issues" that the rest of the world thinks about the issue? Being a minority as they are?

Do you really think they are the ones trying to change the world by force, rather than the other way round? Traditionally quite a lot of force, including murder, has been levelled against trans people.

And what does any of this have to do with bees?
