Uh we’re already well aware transphobia exists. What kind of stupid freeze peach take is this?
I don't understand how it's transphobia. When you're trans you're just changing from one gender to the other M->F or F->M, right? How does this conflict with thta notion?
There are non-binary people too. Being bigoted towards them is generally called transphobia, though maybe nb-phobia would be more accurate.
Edit: also this is usually trying to claim that sex = gender so is transphobic from that perspective as well.
It marked transgender as mental disorder
And transition is the medically supported TREATMENT, not the disorder.
Yes and no, respectively.
Ideally, sure, but that's not always possible and telling people that they're not allowed to be trans doesn't stop them from being trans, it only alienates them.
Those procedures ARE psychologically beneficial care and are mostly NOT dangerous, unlike whatever torturous conversion therapy equivalent you seem to have in mind.
Yeah, spreading medical misinformation rooted in bigotry and ignorance tends to have negative consequences when amongst people who know better. Funny how that works.
No is forcing this on them.
The kids just know it exists and that some adults are fucking mean about it.
Got proof?
