Neither you nor the child have any choice in whether they are trans or not. It's a medical condition characterised by a disorder of brain development. Same as sexuality. You don't get to choose whether you are hetero, L, B, G, or whatever.
Bigotry often stems from ignorance. Innocent ignorance I can possibly forgive. Wilful ignorance, absolutely not.
Evelyn, I know that. That's why I dismissed him with a one-off. You will not convince these people with science. It's a waste of time.
Listen, we are allowed to argue publicly about this issue. We are NOT allowed to argue about Israel.
This issue is EXACTLY what Caitlin is talking about. This is a manufactured distraction. Of course real people are going to get hurt, but both parties feel trans people are useful, in the same way Roe was. Or 'Super Predators' were during the drug war. Or 'Welfare Queens' were during the Reagan era. You manufacture fear of an other, and 'the adults' laugh their asses alll the way to the bank.
I can promise our leaders do not actually give a fuck about this except as it serves as a wedge.
You do realise you are making the exact same argument that anti-abortionists made for overturning reproductive rights? “You need to sit down and speak to the young women who regretted their abortion.” - Yes, some women regretted it. So, my rights are stripped from me? Because you love women? Get outta here.
How do you feel about the war in Ukraine, the slashing of the social safety net, the rise of global totalitarianism? See, that’s a REAL issue.
You’re such a propagandist, it’s fucking ridiculous. The fact people are even talking to you about this non-issue, shows just how stupid people are. Villainizing trans people is part of the fascist game plan. People trying to incite hate towards anyone but the true evil.
They got their orders from their "Lord and Savior" Trump and his minions to hate, demonize, and dehumanize transgender people, who happen to be Red MAGA's target de jour.
If you don’t want a trans kid, don’t have one.

Sorry - I must've misread. Or replied to the wrong person.
And I agree with you, completely.
I'm not sure but I think it was meant ironically? Which can sometimes be misinterpreted - I should know - get misinterpreted on X all the time!
Anyway - now let's blame Boomers (and Bitterns why not?)

Wrong on every account. You’re the only one preaching the narrative of the mass media. Indoctrinated fool!
