A reporter asked the governor about the hypocrisy of his stance against gender-identity and access to gender-affirming care when he chooses to present himself as taller than he is.
That might have been the original point. Men wear lifts to feel more “manly”, reaffirming their perceived gender. Trans people undergo gender affirming care to feel more like their own perceived gender. The difference is just that other people may not perceive the trans person’s gender the same as they do.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks.
