When I was a young girl, I totally thought anything “girly” was lame (still do for the most part) and I also hated my body (I’m happy with my body now.). I also thought being child free would be wonderful so if someone told me that being g sterile was a risk from puberty blockers, that would have been just fine with me. I fear I would have totally been taken in by this trans movement had I been born today and that would have been a shame. I’m happily married with two wonderful kids and I love being a woman.
Those who opine that Abigail Shrier's analysis is "hate speech" my retort is: "Truth sounds like hate only to those who hate truth."
I personally think that it's almost comical to say that kids need to wait until they are 18 in order to get a tattoo because it is a permit change to their bodies but then allow for transgender surgeries on the same individuals under 18 years of age. Where did logic go to die in American society?
Transgenderism remains an incoherent and inconsistent worldview. Every time I ask a trans person or trans advocate how they "know" they're the opposite gender, they inevitably confuse the inclination/disinclination to adhere to gender roles and norms with gender itself. That, or they say something like "I just feel like a woman". But this is incoherent also, since none of us have a basis for comparison. We've all only been just the one gender, so we'd have no way of knowing the difference between "feeling like" a man vs. "feeling like" a woman. Indeed, that's if such a feeling even exists at all. And it's also an inconsistent worldview, as none of these people would be willing to call a white man black if he identified as such. Even though that's literally the only thing supposedly obligating me to call a man a woman.
