There's this bit of misinformation—repeated recently by @SalmanRushdie—that goes: "Transgender activists think that boys who play with dolls should undergo gender reassignment surgery."

Gender non-conformity is not gender dysphoria. It doesn't mean you're trans. Liking dolls doesn't mean you want bottom surgery. BEING A TRANS WOMAN doesn't even mean you necessarily want bottom surgery.

Furthermore, gender confirmation surgery is not performed on minors in any country on Earth. This is a panic generated by fear-mongers, equivalent to the conflation of homosexuality and pedophilia.

I played with dolls all through my childhood, I was the most effeminate boy you'd ever meet, but never once did I have dysphoria.

Imo if someone isnt aware that children of any gender can play with dolls, its transphobic cis people, not us

Yeah I understand, but that nonsense shouldn't be coming from "intellectuals" who should understand that gender has nothing to do with toys.
