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.

Dee is also only speaking from his own experience of childhood. You can see how he got to the conclusion and reasoning that he did. Knowing that, one should be able to explain how that is not the case.

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

He didn't have to double down though. For someone that's supported the LGBTQ+ community for so long, wish he was more charitable towards understanding the anger. In a time where the trans community is constantly being attacked and constantly having their rights stripped, it is completely understandable for them to be very sensitive.

His responding statement makes it seem like the trans activists are being unreasonable when he doesn't seem to understand that that rhetoric is what's fueling all these awful legislations that are trying to wipe their existence. He's probably still an ally, but by doubling down he created this situation where now you have people shitting on trans people for reacting and talking about purity tests knowingly or unknowingly giving fuel to the anti-trans crowd.
