Gotten your information from “terfs” or “transphobic doctors”. If they even somewhat recognize a “terf argument” or something that trans ideology has “debunked” to them, they’ll get defensive. This is why showing your kid stuff seldom works or even makes her more upset.

You have to understand that this is a really emotional state of thinking, there is not a lot of logic behind the trans ideology in teens, the younger the worse, and anything that threatens it and can’t be argued with regurgitated arguments from tumblr will be met with a wall

When talking to The Woke (incl friends w supposedly trans kids) I rely on laid back, non-confrontational Socratic questioning using "I" statements & trans terminology. So what really is gender? I think I might be agender, what's it like to feel like a woman? It's not just/

/stereotypes right? I like my body but don't ID w womanhood at all & wd rather occupy a male space in world, am I cis? Does a lesbian need to say she's bi if a partner starts IDing as M but is otherwise indistinguishable from a butch F? Are there any situations where sex matters?
