Hey, thanks for your comment and link. I respect that it must be incredibly hard having to suffer so much because of personal experience, and to then be expected to debate about it. I totally get that.

As the article says, there is a lot of misinformation around this, a lot of ignorance, and I do believe that an open debate about this (or anything in general really) is truly important. Way i see it, you've got bad actors on one side (opposing trans in this case) who will use anything to further their agenda. And they have an advantage: they can oversimplify a complex process. It's really easy to shout "They want all your children to be trans!", and quite a bit harder to explain the reality. That's what the trans community is up against. It will take a lot of patience and time, decades, to educate the masses unfortunately, and any excesses, like online vitriol, trolling, will be used against you. I'm sorry to say this, but you're an easy target.

Again, not expecting anyone to debate who doesn't want to. But I hope that the people who do enter the public debate can be as composed as the author of the article you shared. I believe that's the only road to acceptance.

I wish you all the best, and hope you can find peace. From the little information I have I can tell, you are beautiful.
