"Forgive me if I fail to be convinced that the spate of anti-trans bills is motivated by conservatives' sincere concern for women's athletics, a subtle understanding of endocrinology or even the well-being of the children themselves. Instead, these bills are a way for conservatives to perform their scorn for people who are different from themselves.

"This kind of performance doesn't make transgender people disappear, of course. All it does, in the end, is demonstrate a lack of generosity and imagination to understand a soul different from your own."
