8. Not to mention every possible mix of enjoyments of sex.

Those bouncing off the ceilings about homosexuality etc NEVER mention the far greater numbers who are fine with mixing it up even if they have a preference.

As Pfitz said, I'm sure. They keep issues simple to not introduce confusion into opposition and the targets clearly defined and small enough to appear weak and defeatable. Such as not weakening their simplistic rhetoric with intersex realities.

Btw, the few laws I've actually read do keep medically necessary surgery legal. Vague, but I assume corrective surgeries for gender anomalies at birth would tend to fall under that. An intersex population wouldn't serve their black-or-white reactionary "ideology."
