I agree with what the tc seems to be getting at. That has nothing to do with trans peoples validity. Of course trans people are valid. At the same time, I always felt like growing up we were told to be ourselves and that gender norms were restrictive and outdated. Telling people they have to stick to a gender norm or they aren't a boy or aren't a girl is not progress, and it's a harmful message for kids to be getting. It is healthy and normal for boys to cry, and that should be the message, not that if you cry you must be non binary or a girl.
