This question has been surfacing in my head, in nearly all countries there is a left vs right divide, with the right being mostly anti lgbt(you can claim there are some gay people that are rightists but they tend to be anti trans) so now i was thinking about it, in the most optimistic future, did you really believe:
A. That people on the right would accept lgbtq
B. That the right wing would be less popular
Because i see no other option, what is the use in making pro trans laws if only a portion of the population is pro trans?

We make the pro LGBTQ laws, and everyone will get used to it and start complaining about the next thing.
The right as a whole also used to be against women’s suffrage – now it’s pretty fringe. Eventually, with progress, we can normalize things until they stop being actively opposed.
>what is the use in making pro trans laws if only a portion of the population is pro trans?
Isn’t this true for a lot of things? Laws that only a portion of the population is “pro” while a portion is against?
The “use” in making pro trans laws is partly to protect people from being harmed physically, economically, or socially from those who are “anti”. You can’t force everyone to agree, but you can reduce the harm that’s done for no other reason than personal judgement.
