1. The Trans movement will die because of feminism/social justice. I believe that we are moving towards a society where there will be no stigma towards sexuality, fashion, presentation, or any other expression relative to gender/sex. Once any gender can present any way freely, and not be 'emasculated' or 'defeminated' based on expression, I do not see how dysphoria would exist.

2. Abortion is murder and but that doesn't mean it it should be made illegal. The government sanctions killing of others through acts of war, self defense, use of deadly force. The historical precedent of the economic, public health and social impact of banning abortion make banning abortion against the function of most governments. The government should not be morality police, but a hockey-style referee for economics and public safety.

I got tired of explaining my stance on the second issue to the point to where I just say that citizenship is issued on birth in USA therefore fetuses aren't citizens and prioritizing the fetus over the mother is a homeland security issue.
