It was very a terribly immature, insensitive and exclusionary reaction to treat Nikki Hirtz in this way. Booing as if it were all their own definition of what gender is about. This also shows that Oregon is not an accepting place as some people who haven't been there can really be such a backwards state. Oregon was not much different that a southern state before the Civil War that made it illegal for POC to live there. Bigotry and hatred gor total stangers exists in Oregon right now. This has showed the entire shared world that Oregon is not as open minded as it is promoted to appear to be. Equity, equality and diversity have a long way to go not only in Oregon, but also in most every state and country in the world. It was a very disappointing and disgraceful act. There should be international rules against booing and yelling slurs of hate at participants of public events.
