Transgender question?

A genuine question I have...

I have seen some transgender people arguing against gender stereotypes such as pink is for girls, blue is for boys etc. which is understandable but usually when they speak about their gender dysphoria and how they knew they were a different gender when they were younger they say things like 'I was playing with barbies when my friends were playing with cars. That's when I knew I was a woman' or something along those lines.

So how can you argue against the gender stereotypes but then use them to justify your reason for wanting to be a different gender?

This isn't a hate post towards transgender people, I'm just hoping to be enlightened.

OP, you can’t expect logic from an ideology that denies science and basic biology.
There are only two sexes. If you believe that you’re the “wrong one”, the only way to “perform” the other sex is to resort to dated behavioural stereotypes, then hormone manipulation and mutilating surgery.
It’s such a shame.
40 years ago, when I was young (sigh!) men could have long hair, wear make up, behave in feminine ways, but still happily be men and have girlfriends. There were thousands of happy, well adjusted hippies. They stretched the bandwidth of acceptable masculinity, instead of trying to claim to be a sex they weren’t.
I think the modern trans activists are harmful to young gay and autistic kids, by trying to insist on rigid stereotypes and push them down the pathway of dangerous puberty blockers and surgery.

Mmm good question, Be interesting to see if you get any answers that don't involve stereotypes.

It's all about stereotypes.

You can't. It's nonsense.
