It is so backwards, for sure. The good news is that the pendelum has swung so far, that it is bound to swing back towards decency...especially with so many in the world praying and awake to all the harms being inflicted by our governments.
I do worry about the collateral damage in the meantime. The transitioning kids become very depressed, and the hormones they take screw up their health and personalities. The school system is victimizing these impressionable kids.
My 9 year old asks me how to talk to her friends who say they think it would be cool to transition. I told her to say she will care about them either way, but that she is worried they will get very depressed and unhappy because the hormone chemicals and surgery are very damaging and can't be undone if they change their minds when they are older. I told her to say that almost everyone who transitions becomes miserable, depressed, and angry, so it makes her sad that they are thinking about doing it.
"Cool to transition?" They obviously haven't actually talked to anyone about it, and even if they do, whoever they talk to will lie about it, especially "doctors" of every stripe.

Incredibly sad what the schools are doing to these kids...making them feel special for considering transitioning.
It's mutilation if they go all the way.
