Openmindedness

I have decided that I love people. I'm watching a show on TLC about a transgendered couple who are having a baby. This by itself made me a very happy panda. The fact that a big television company would document something that is as controversial this this subject is is truly inspiring. On top of that, this couple has a midwife that is between 40 and 50. She was interviewed by herself and she just treated the whole thing as though it was no big deal. However, she did mention that this was the first time that she'd ever helped a man have a baby. She even referred to him as a man. Then they interviewed the wife's mother and she said that she used to have a beautiful son, and now she had an even more beautiful daughter. It was so amazing to hear that people are becoming so accepting of people that they know and love or of people that they hardly know. It gives me great hope for our society and for where we are going with our respect for other human beings on this earth.
