The Same Toxic Christian Right Theology Supports Both the Online Bullying I Experienced and the Cruel Anti-Trans Policy in TX — And it’s Not Remotely Fringe

…-transition pictures are often used, and the tweets may feature derogatory commentary that of course includes, but also goes beyond, misgendering.
