Except that's not how it works at all. The kids that transition go through a rigorous process and have many discussions/evaluations with their doctors and parents.

The problem with this clever rhetoric is that it makes the "issue" seem way bigger than it is when actually it only happens to less than 1% of the trans youth and ignores the bigger population that go on to live a happy life. It also disregards the long process these kids go through before transitioning and acts as though its a rash decision. Gender affirming care is fucking life saving care for a lot of these kids.

Of course that's not the full story of how it works, but instead of attacking someone for not knowing, you can show them why their concerns are misplaced.

I liked that part of a post that said he doesn't seem to be transphobic, he's just being a boomer.
