And would you stop being so dramatic with those "it can get people killed" comments?! Let's not forget that Zeke is already known as a gay man (so is Jeff, let's not forget that), which could already make him a target for hatred by homophobes. And you don't even have to be LGBT to be in danger. There was an incident in Israel a few years back, for instance, when a homophobe killed a young girl who attended a pride parade. She was not gay, she was merely there to support the LGBT community. Homophobes do not differentiate between gay and trans people, and can even hurt supporters of LGBT rights, who are not LGBT themselves. I mean, they would even want to hurt Sarah for her support for Zeke.

The problem in this situation is that Zeke wanted to just be known as gay, and was not ready to reveal he was trans (something I am sure he would do sooner or later, I mean, he did tell Varner and the show's production), and Varner did it when Zeke was not ready. This is the problem here, do not take it out of context.
