It was you who brought in trucks and pink clothing. The differences in emotion expression between very young boys & girls is an observed fact, not a gender stereotype.

"Significant . . gender differences were found overall, with girls showing more positive emotions (g = −.08) and internalizing emotions (e.g., sadness, anxiety, sympathy; g = −.10) than boys, and boys showing more externalizing emotions (e.g., anger; g = .09) than girls."

1/ You realize there is such a thing as gender atypicality? That traits, even if some are biologically influenced, occur along a bell curve, & some people are on the "tail" of the curve? Gender-atypical tots are more likely to grow up to be homosexual. Buthttps://4thwavenow.com/2018/08/07/research-evidence-gender-atypical-tots-likely-to-become-gay-or-lesbian-not-trans/ …

2/ Like so many ppl who justify id'ing young kids as "trans," you ignore this well known fact & thereby contribute to (& reveal) the profound (even if unintended) homophobia implicit in believing a toddler w/gender-atypical traits is not really their biological sex.

@Quibilah1 3/ The second tweet by "trans mum" in this thread (that 30-40% of lesbians may "really" be trans) reveals (more boldly) the same implicit attitude that ppl who are atypical for their sex are somehow NOT their sex. This is the illogical heart of trans ideology.1 reply 4 retweets 13 likes -
4/ Pure social constructionists will argue that every gendered trait shown by a young child is learned. Plenty of research (like the Li and Hines study cited above) indicates there's a bio component to behaviors (such as emotion expression). But it does NOT follow that...

5/ Children who demonstrate atypical gender traits are therefore in the wrong body. Norms, means, and averages say NOTHING about an individual child. Traits/personality/behaviors are properties of the brain, and a brain is an integral whole with the rest of the body.

6/ Some affirmative gender therapists have done a disservice to parents, by encouraging them to monitor their very young child for atypical behaviors that might mean they are "trans." It's the very opposite of accepting the child for "who they are"

7/ And it increases likelihood a child will enter the "gender care" system & be identified as "trans" when they would be far more likely to grow up to be LGB w/no need of drastic med interventions if left alone. THIS is why more & more LG adults are alarmed by transgenderism.

8/ Many gender-atypical lesbian & gay adults KNOW how they struggled when young w/unaccepting parents. Some struggled w/"gender issues" in adolescence. But unlike now, they were not channeled into a "gender clinic" & resolved their discomfort and are the stronger for it.

9/ That so many trans activists deny the negative impact of social (and then medical) transition on children who are likely (based on decades of research) pre-homosexual reveals (at best) indifference to the de facto, proactive conversion therapy this represents.

No gender clinics in the UK are rushing kids into transition. There are long waiting lists.
