This person appears to think families claiming 2-5 trans kids is simply a function of trans people feeling more confident. Thoughts? https://twitter.com/eatenbyawhale/status/1203676091581435904 …

I wouldn’t ever claim that trans people have done anything other than ask for acceptance. Families of trans kids have sought treatment, and those who object to their treatment have made them a point of debate.

The result.. trans people rightly get behind their right to rational measured care based in their individual needs.

Vast majority of ppl worried about the increase in "trans kids" are live-and-let-live moderates & liberals, not "anti-trans." But activists chose to feature (often proto-gay) kids in their campaigns, vs. building their own movement to secure employment and housing rights.
-
Activists also could have built a movement for recognition as a unique group: trans sports leagues, prison wards and refuges, one-user private change rooms/lockerrooms, etc. Instead, the demand for access to any/all women's spaces has met with a backlash that will not end.

Think about this all of us trans adults now that are going and transitioning; COULDN'T do that when we were kids for many various reasons: time period being one of them. It’s the same with LGBTQ adults who are out and proud now but had to hide in the closet as kids/teens.
-
Kids & teens in this new generation are the ones that have power to come out & be themselves cause the world at least is now aware of and accepting being transgender(and lgbtq as a whole). Us adults WISH we had that power then but the kids need uplifting cause they are our future
