The politics of a person doesn't change his or her gender, neither does surgery at best it masks the birth gender. Some people accept the change as real, and others pretend to probably to maintain friendships. That hints to the entire problem with woke, DEI etc, everyone doesn't believe in it, follow it or care what others think. Pride months, parades, flags all of those things and more do not promote diversity, equity or inclusion they simply divide and build walls between people.
