I find central Florida (Orlando, Kissimmee, etc) to be a surprisingly LGBTQ+ friendly place. Shockingly so. Support is everywhere and in everything. Even in their professional football (soccer) teams.

Hello fellow, Orlandoan!

Very true, but here in Orlando I've also run into plenty of people who will not hesitate to be openly transphobic. But luckily those shit heads definitely seem to be in the minority around here.

I can't tell you how many times in my life I have heard people call transfolx "it" when their brain breaks and they have no idea how to talk like a civilized individual.
