What can we do to get Crossdressing accepted as a social Norm?

[Leslie Langford]

Even if they did, Mirya, there aren't enough crossdressers. Women during the suffrage movement? Fifty percent of the population stood to benefit. The civil rights movement? A whopping twelve percent of the US population is black. Both these groups are not only visible, they cross our paths every day...

Yes, a very logical, rational explanation to this fundamentally vexing question. Unfortunately, logic and reason often don't enter into the equation.

Funny, when it comes to "religious freedom" to justify discriminating against us or curtailing our rights - or even the current frenzy around the various already enacted and pending "Bathroom Bills" in the U.S. - our miniscule numbers and the unlikely odds of the average "muggle" ever encountering one of us in the wild seem to carry no weight.

To hear the politicians and their rabid adherents who champion these bills tell it, we are literally the "Barbarians at the Gate", Western civilization as we know it is in peril, and the Apocalypse is sure to follow if TG people are allowed to use the washrooms that conform to their true gender identity.
