It’s true, though. Dumb people are biased to treat doing nothing preferentially. That’s why there are some people who won’t pull the lever in the trolley problem, it’s why the bystander effect exists.
Dumb people treat letting puberty happen to innocent children preferentially to giving trans kids HRT, even though they’re the exact same thing. Puberty blockers should be available to all kids. When you go to your yearly checkup at age 10, your doctor should ask if you’re ready for puberty, and if so, which one. Parent and kid both need to fill out a consent form if yes. If no, then the kid gets a blood test each year and free government funded puberty blockers when the levels start to increase.
Being cis isn’t “doing nothing”. If you think this is “true”, that means you think being trans is also a choice, which I’m guessing you don’t. You certainly shouldn’t.
About 9.3% of the US populate said they were lgbtq in 2022. May have been higher, depends on how the poll was structured. It had been under 5% for decades before this, which makes me think that the number is definitely higher and people are still wary about telling strangers this information.
Weird shit can set people off sometimes. I was probably born left handed, but my grandmothers wanted no part of that and forced me to use my right hand. About 13% of the US population is left handed, but, how meaningful is the number really?
Congrats on understanding the clear intent of the media! I both want to be astounded that you would think you’re the only one and also am sad that so many people probably don’t get it, either, because media literacy is dying painfully.
I took this as sarcasm to prove how weird it sounds when people say the same thing about trans…am I the only one?
No, you’re right, it’s definitely meant satirically.
