I saw this and had exactly the same thought. Phillippa Perry is married to part-time cross dresser Grayson so I expect she has thoughts on trans ideology. Iirc Grayson has openly admitted to the..?..frisson he gets from his frocks.

He has, which is pretty ick, although honest as to what it actually is, I suppose.And he does seem to recognises his fetish as primarily a male thing (although it's obviously insulting to women) But he's generally not been at all pro the trans thing in its current form. He says it being transvestism and a fetish is the point and it's wrong to claim you are actually a woman. So not doing an Izzard. His wife also doesn't appear to be on the trans train and has been accused of being transphobic before for something she wrote in one of her columns, I think, but they mainly stay out of the main debate, afaik.

Thirty-fucking-four. A grown adult who doesn't feel profound relief at not being a teenager any more is verifiably insane.

In my far from humble and undoubtedly correct opinion.

My sympathy for her parents is limited. They should have pushed her over the rim of the nest long ago, with the choice of flying or going splat. Splat would be better than what is described here.

Good grief. Sadly there seem to be a significant number of adults in this state - I've one in my extended family. I like Philippa's distinction between “rescuing” and “supporting”. Parents do no favours for young people by repeatedly "rescuing them" rather than supporting them to tackle challenges themselves and to develop independent lives. Also worth noting that she identifies online as the major factor in enabling "distorted referencing" that's keeping this young woman in a childlike state.

It appears that there are increasing numbers of younger people like this.
