Taking things to the mainstream

There are a few other reasons why this is happening on the scale that it is, if you ask me:

A. Liberal feminism has pushed tolerance to the point of eating itself. This is why we're seeing hundreds of new gender identities and sexualities, with more being invented every day. It's not a slippery slope argument at this point... their philosophy is that anything goes, no evidence needed. It only needs to be their reality in order for it to become the world's reality. You can see this in gender/sexuality circles already - trans was normalized, then came nonbinary, genderfluid, two-spirit, etc. The list of gender options on different websites is getting longer and longer.

B. While I dislike the "virtue signaling" argument that conservatives use, there are people who use tolerance as a way to brag about themselves, and they latch onto whichever group they can use for that.

C. The number of people under the trans umbrella is genuinely increasing. Keep in mind that they're pushing this narrative - that too, to children - that if they differ from gender norms at all, they're nonbinary, genderqueer, or some other identity. Nearly everyone feels "different" from these norms, especially as a child.

The sad thing is, there are reasons for us to be scared. TRAs do try to ruin lives and careers if they can. But the more we give now, the less room we'll have in the future. I don't think people aren't critical - I think it's that TRAs are systematically deplatforming and threatening the people who could provide counterarguments, leaving people with only pro-trans evidence to go off of. In the past, I've had an extremely hard time finding basic trans research because it was so well-covered up. I know many doctors who would disagree with a lot of these claims, but how many are going to say something? I'll tell you - none. And they're the doctors.

I'm not much of a social media person either, but remember that Reddit is very useful for these things. We can talk anonymously and don't need a following for our posts to become popular. I've been trying to remember to post on other subreddits for this reason, though I'm noticing
