I have seven nieces. That has always been my defense when they knock on the door or hit me up
outside the supermarket for cookies, "I have seven nieces." Their mothers always understand. Now I will proudly say "I HAVE SEVEN NIECES!!" as I place a huge order.
None of them are in Scouts anymore but the excuse still works when I want it to. And while none of them are transgendered, none of them would have made such a hateful video and any of them would have welcomed the new member with open arms.
