I hadn’t been to the USA in quite a few years and assumed that transpeople in America were largely limited to loud voices on social media. Then I went and spent three weeks in the USA last year and repeatedly met transpeople, whether the cashiers at a CVS or fast food, or other cyclists I met on a popular bikepacking route I followed. Regardless of what controversy still exists, I concluded that this had already evolved from a counterculture into the general culture.
