I'm really disappointed by this comment. Why not believe what parents say? Adult trans people know about their lives, not our kids.

"Sudden onset" ..."implies a legitimate trans identity." Why on earth do you feel a need to make this assertion/disclaimer? Based on what?

You wrote that in reply to an MTF trans activist w/ ZERO personal knowledge of this. Yet you ignore tweet from a parent who is living this.

Think I'm gonna keep learning a/b this stuff and reporting and maybe arguing over the specific wording of individual tweets doesn't help

It's not just older trans PEOPLE. It's that experience of dysphoric girls is not the same as male-born ppl, & they are the loudest on this.

There's been a massive shift to girls transitioning. This needs exploring and I hope you will spend time on it in your reporting.pic.twitter.com/ljT0dSvI9P

Teenage girls are especially susceptible to social contagion, although it can happen with anyone.

The pressures on teenage girls (dysphoric or not) are different from boys. It's under-reported and deserves more coverage in the press.
