Challenging those "Norms"?...where did those "Norms" come from?
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27....so they are really challenging God...Architect of the Norms.
"A transgender who is running to be prime minister of Thailand has said she is ready to take the role – but wonders if the people are ready to accept a transgender candidate.
Pauline Ngarmpring transitioned at the age of 49, and has said she is “comfortable” and has “nothing to hide” ahead of the general election on March 24.
The trans Thai candidate said that—while she is ready for the race—she is accepting that she will likely not become prime minister on this occasion.
Ngarmpring - who goes by her preferred name Pauline - is one of three candidates for prime minister from the Mahachon Party, and is not considered a front-runner.
But Thailand’s LGBT+ community is hopeful that she - and the nearly 20 other LGBT+ candidates for parliament that the Mahachon Party is backing - will help focus attention on their challenges and their abilities, an activist said.
“Her candidacy is significant because she is challenging the traditional norms of gender and sexuality,” said Anjana Suvarnanda of the Anjaree Group."
