While Governor Greg Abbott was speaking on TV, something else was happening. A group supporting LGBTQ rights showed some ads on TV. These ads had three transgender people being themselves.

    The ads were made by GLAAD and Ground Media. These guys wanted to show people that being transgender is not a political thing. What are you thinking?

    The ads showed a bit of their life. Like, Ashton loves hiking. How cool is that? Another guy, Gio, loves football and sneakers. He is just like us!

    GLAAD and Ground Media are groups that help tell the stories of LGBTQ people. The ads were shown on TV stations all over Texas. And they were shown when the governor’s speech was playing.  They aired in 15 different cities. That is a lot of people watching!

    People are just people. You do not need to make a big deal. The people who made the ads want everyone to think like this.

    "How do you do define regular dude? Like you can define being masculine or anything else that goes with it.

    It's also "who is regularly" intelligent person and goes to good schools. What can I do?

    So, Changing Human Anatomy is not an issue, because it is not political. We should think about the regular people and the regular things. Is there anything else this could be related to?

    How can Texas and other states like it be better for its transgender people? Who else is going to do something about it?
