i mean texas texas, the lone star state. and by the way, my city coahuila, was part of texas, but sadly they broke up, that's why coahuila is very american
If you're in a city in Texas, you'll easily find people to connect with and will have little/no issues. In rural areas, you're likely to find people who are less accepting of different lifestyles.
there are also small towns here in mexico, and yes, they are accepting
Texas is politically and socially against LGBT rights. Maybe not as bad as Mexico, but you are likely to get hatecrimed in Texas if you are nonbinary.
not as bad as mexico?? here lgbt is accepted and all states are pro gay marriage, and also trans rights are nice and there are a lot of nonbinary people in government positions, and they are respected
I'd be a lot more concerned in north or east Texas than south, central, or west Texas, which are all the parts closest to Mexico. Despite what you hear on the news, there are a lot of gender diverse people here and plenty allies
As a Texan, I feel the divide is more rural vs urban north vs south.
