She's both smart and entertaining! I became aware of the bias against females ages ago. I was a psych major and remember hearing that women weren't included in most medical studies. And the ignorance regarding black people truly boggles the mind! So it certainly figures that LGBT people would confront the same issues as well. And yet this is still happening in the 21st century!
