I think the very fine menu likely helped, and also that everyone knew they would be breaking bread with people who had drastically different viewpoints. I'm an independent and the parent of a 16 year old gender dysphoric teen who discovered this identity mid-pandemic. Personally, it is very hard for me to be around people who are responsible for harming my child. Anyone supporting the public school's position supports sexualizing children and ignorance is not an excuse. How many children are they willing to sacrifice? Or maybe it's all okay as long as it's not their child. At such a dinner I suppose if everyone just talked about light hearted issues it would be possible to enjoy each other's company. But it would be really hard. It's hard to sit with people who don't care about harming children and disrespecting women's boundaries.

I totally get that. I definitely won't be inviting any gender surgeons over.
