QuoteHe...or she... is transgender.

The first thing I wanted to do was to stand up and walk out of the room.
This issue is too ...
I don't know. Too creepy. Too scary.
I felt like I wanted to throw up.
I can't.
I can't put up with this.
I just can't stand listening or understanding to these people.
It is too unnatural. I always think of these people as sicks.
they had emotional problems or biological problems with their hormones.
They are sick. They are ill-minded.
And that was what I thought.

But I could not leave. I was in the auditorium; I had to listen.

It was a really lovely piece. That child is remarkable in his/her ability to reflect within her/his self. Thanks, Karen.

Your reply was a good one as well.
