For my part, the term I would prefer to "contagion" is "education" or "awareness" If you think that terminology is biased ("More kids are transitioning due to greater awareness") but the "contagion" phrasing isn't, well, ask yourself why

Wait, if I become aware of something because a friend told me about it rather than getting it from an officially sanctioned curriculum then I can't use the term "awareness" for it? This is news to me

Yeah no The sentence "More kids are transitioning than ever due to increased awareness" is a perfectly understandable sentence
