>>12 I pretty much have the mindset of the previous generation (i.e., such as my parents' generation), so I tend to hold unpopular beliefs and opinions regarding LGBT+ (well I assume that
>>8 >>10 and mine are unpopular or at least controversial).
I just find it sad that people aren't happy the way they are born -- grateful and thankful they are born healthy without defects or diseases -- or happy with the name they were given. Or, in this boy's case, happy his parents actually love him unlike other unfortunate people in the world.
>>13 And yes, my problem is, with children 5-6 years old, or even in their early teens, is that they still don't know what they want. This short documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIuxIq9UH4c shows how undeveloped children's thinking is, that their decisions "now" may not be thought out well, and that they may possibly change their minds in the future. (Of course, we only see so much as the documentary shows us, so we draw our conclusions from possibly incomplete or even biased evidence.)
I think the only way they could possibly even learn about gender segregation is through their parents, society, things they see and learn from school, TV, etc. A child as young as 4 would have
no idea what it even means to be transgender, and in fact, I doubt would even have gender dysphoria. In my opinion, it's the environment that promotes development of gender dysphoria, what the children are exposed to.
And I love having interesting and intelligent discussions like this, yes to real conversation!
