As evolutionary biologist Colin Wrights explains:

>>We should treat children who are different with compassion and acceptance. Transgender ideology does the opposite. When children say they’re transgender, that frequently prompts a visit to a gender clinic where a “gender-affirming” therapist may prescribe puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and even surgery to “fix” this perceived misalignment between “gender identity” (i.e., social roles and stereotypes) and the child’s biological sex.
As an ideological matter alone, this is regressive in the extreme. It repudiates decades of work by women’s-rights activists who rightfully gauged such notions as sexist and oppressive and fought to free nonconformists from social stigma. Subjecting children to body-altering surgery and drugs is a medical scandal of horrifying proportions.<<

21./ What's also become clear is the vast majority of teens referred to gender clinics are gay. It's easy to forget when the Protocol was developed in the 90s homophobia was rife. 'Stranger in My Own Body' treats homosexuality as problematic and related to being trans.👇 pic.twitter.com/aQPh2w2ghm

Recognition of “male-to-eunuch” as a “gender identity” may be shocking to some — it may even be shocking to some who fervently believe that children have the agency to use chemical castration drugs to stop their own development at puberty https://t.co/Mu35rdu2kH

LGBTQ activists who support puberty blockers followed by surgery for gender-nonconforming kids ignore the consequences of what they advocate.
