@eth Hi with your statement
“I wish people would realise that sexuality choices are not the same as gender identity realities.”
I would politely disagree that sexuality is a choice at all I believe that both gender identity and sexual orientation are not choices rather just parts of who we are. But please let me know if I have misunderstood your statement.

Honesty, kindness, respect, a willingness to listen, a minimum of criticism.
Thank you @Daisydreamer for running this week-long topic!

I totally agree with you @Eden1919 My choice of words was a bit slack, I understand and live the reality myself and agree that it's not a 'choice' as such.
