Is transgenderism a fad that's going to die down?

I've watched a lot of videos of detransitioners, and I think it's horrendous that they allow children to stunt and even mutilate their bodies because they "feel different". I'm not anti trans, and I fully support grown adults doing whatever they want with themselves. Not children though, no fucking way. Those situations need to be handled differently- without puberty blockers and god forbid surgery for fucks sake- until they are 18, 100%.

In the name of making it acceptable, I do think it's been pushed harder upon society than it's genuine prevalence might require.

I think it's often the wrong fix, and people only find that out afterwards. We need to get better at finding the correct issues, and then leave this as an option where it really is the problem.

I'm fine with trans too, but it's such a big and visible change, that people need to be as best informed as they can be before taking the step, rather than it being the fashionable PC solution of the day.

I'm not writing these thoughts well, but I hope my point comes across OK.

@NudasPriest came across perfect...it's a sensitive subject and I think people are head shy at times of talking about it...but I think you and I basically agree. I was not as graceful but yeah 👍
