We as a nation are thought to be bonded and supportive towards each other, but our beliefs have separated us into thinking that only one way is the correct way to be accepted within society. Religion that has been taught to many across the state bash the thoughts and hopes of others. Being born a certain gender does not define who a person truly are on the inside.
