Gahey, humans.

Welcome to the safe space for dangerous ideas,

and this is a doozy of a dangerous conversation.

I'm going to get a lot of hate for even talking to someone like this,

because their stories aren't supposed to be heard.

But I do think it's important just to hear the actual experiences of people who are collateral

damage in our big, fancy, beautiful, fabulous culture wars.

And in a week like this, when, if you live in Sydney,

you're only just coming down from a two or three week extravaganza of pride in everything

that the LGBTIQIA plus community has achieved,

there has been not a whisper of dissent from just the sheer relentless fabulousness of it all,

the sequins, the feather bowers, the waxed, oiled chests and pectoral muscles of drag queens, sitting astride, gigantic, inflatable penises.

It's been marvellous, I got to tell you.

And I kicked the whole extravaganza off on ABC, the national broadcaster, three weekends ago, at Fair Day, which is the family-friendly LGBTQIA plus event.

Come one, come all.

Grandma and the kids hear about how fantastic it is to be trans.

I interviewed several trans people on the air live, and they were fabulous people.

And God bless them.

And I have since hung out with several of my trans friends.

Some of those people are binary.

Some of those people are non-binary.

I'm very much, I think I've earned my bona fides in the trans space in terms of making it clear that I have absolutely no problem with transgender people.
