      1/ THREAD: Families with multiple trans kids. New leaked post (dated 4 days ago) from the affirming-parent Facebook group. Contrary to the original poster's conjecture ("rare breed"), a whole slew have 2, 3 or more trans kids. What are the odds?pic.twitter.com/NXuuF84WLy

      2/ Every permutation seems to exist..."1 trans, 1 NB, 1 cis." "Me too! I collected the whole set!" "Our of 4 kids, 2 are trans."pic.twitter.com/HDVuiuPKXR

      3/ "A trans panssexual son, a bi cis daughter, an asexual non-binary daughter, & a cis straight son. I joke that by the time it came to choose all that was left was cis & straight so he had to be the boring one." One mom has 8 kids--not a boring cis straight one in the bunch!pic.twitter.com/wJdfohNPwF

      5/ Large families and adoptees are well represented. One with 3/6 trans kids kids, including two adopted. The 2.5-year-old "came out first after being placed with us." Another with 3/4 trans kids, including a "transfeminine demigirl."pic.twitter.com/kASt17pz2B

      6/ Lots of "two for twos." "They’re 2.5 years apart. The first one transitioned at age 7, and then i transitioned with my youngest when she transitioned at 8."pic.twitter.com/KHv9S6LiHU

      7/ There are over 100 replies, far too many to post. And these families are likely just the tip of the iceberg. Several mention a whole separate group for parents of multiple trans kids. Until very recently, transsexual people were a tiny, rare minority of adults. Discuss.pic.twitter.com/WqRh6qlGBX

      How big is the facebook group it was posted in? This is critically important context.

          Mmm, assuming some standard moderate heritability (say 50%) of transition liability, is 100/8000 really that high? I haven't run the numbers, but just in terms of rough estimates, it seems plausible without any extra assumptions about contagion.

          Why assume the 100 repliers in the thread are the only ones w/ multiple trans kids? Most people on Facebook (and on the Internet in general) are lurkers who never post anything (there's data on that). And as stated above, there are other groups that cater to that population too.
