Why does this creep me out?

I think it's the fact that I agree the children are just fine as they are, but ultimately the transgender community will guide them towards hormones and surgery, which is damaging to their health.

FFS! That is a creepy load of old bollocks, but not surprising that it’s published in the Grubian. Recruit them young and you have them for life.

They are perfect, just as they are. Perfect in every way.
Dress how you want, play how you want, look how you want, dance how you want, gender is whatever you want it to be.

Save decisions on your biological sex until you've grown up. Really grown up.

But anyway, the guardian's totally transphobic so 🤷‍♀️

It’s an invitation to join a cult.

Assurance there’s nothing wrong with you though if you follow us, you might need extensive medical and surgical intervention, but that’s so normal we won’t even mention it. You’re just like all of us!!!

Come over here. Here you’ll be accepted and you can stop questioning yourself about anything. Everyone here loves you and will love you forever. Come on in. The water’s warm ing up up towards boiling point.

It’s so sad that they are telling teenagers that if they feel non binary, queer, whatever, that this is how they will feel for life. When I was a teenager I had times of trying things, feeling different ways but there was never this pressure to accept how you feel as permanent and start designing your whole adult life down this path. If they say that adult brains aren’t fully formed until age 23 why all this teaching that your feelings about sexuality and identity are fixed in the storm of your teenage years.
Does this mean the same thing for gay people who might have heterosexual feelings in their teenage years...you’re accepted into the loving kind heterosexual community and that’s it, no changing your mind, no questioning other ways of life.
I thought we were trying to get away from all this. It seems so oppressive.
