Highly presumptuous of you.

Forcing people to use preferred gender pronouns does not create respect for transgender people. Use of force does not create respect for anything other than the force itself. Generally, that is called fear though, not respect.

That’s not science, that’s language.
I don’t need to fight you. The majority of the mental health profession agrees with me.

My preferred pronoun is Bill with capital B.
Who do I sue if the state lumps me in as a “he/him” or “they/them”?
If you say that is crazy, consider the long list of pronouns that already exist:
That’s not what that says.

Nope. Its easy to presume that the child did not demand that everyone treat them as a transgender. Heck, without input from their parents or some meddling teacher or such telling them they are transgender, it highly unlikely that an elementary aged kid would even know what one was.

Is this another right wing conspiracy theory? Parents are lying and brain washing their children? Are transgender people the new lizard people?

Never claimed otherwise.
Just making sure that you understood that respect can only be earned, not forced.

Okay.
No … it’s not okay, but that’s how it is.
Does a kindergartner even understand the nuances of gender identity? Or is simply a phase based on outside pressure?
If it’s a teenager, that makes sense. By that point, you’re starting to understand who you really are.
But an elementary school kid?

the take is that psychoanalyst determines dysphoria which opens up pronoun use to match supposed “gender”

No it’s not a conspiracy and the parents aren’t lying … they actually believe that crap. What it is though, is a fact of our modern left-wing, politically correctness, social justice, polluted urban society. Get 30-40 miles from the Freeways and you will find a different world.

Yes, but the question that must be asked, is where did the teenager get the idea?
I expect that years from now professionals who have been pushing surgery may have to pay damages. Psychiatry has a history of fads in both diagnosis and treatment.
Campaigner Charlie Evans (pictured), 28, from Newcastle, was born female but identified as male for almost ten years before deciding to be known as a woman again.
