Weird. It’s almost as if the less we emphasize gender roles, the less people feel obligated to clarify their gender.

I'm an old dude, and I'm physically intersexed. My father wanted to murder me because I was soft and girly, and thus obviously homosexual. I'm not and have never been gay. All this social confusion is liberating to me. At 61, I can finally breathe...

Wait. Are you saying there is a bunch of teenagers that are unsure where they fit in and what society is asking of them? Shocking!

I'm a straight guy in my 30s and starkly remember multiple times as a child and teen where i felt extremely weird not by my hobbies of sewing, cooking, gardening, etc... along with normal "dude activities" like high contact sports, cars, and video games... but rather that society shoved how many things I enjoyed were "gay" or "girly."
Maybe if we stopped being dicks and trying to assign different sex or gender to activities kids wouldn't feel so confused or weird.
In my late teens I had a conversation with a uncle who made a comment of a similar vein amd I responded "how many chefs are men??? How many fashion designers are men??? Don't men do most of the landscaping and farming??? Wtf are you on about?" And it finally clicked to him there's nothing weird at all about it.

This is an extract of one of the best interview about the subject, they talk about transition as well as detransition with no judgement on both end, the confusion that kids have around gender identity and how this child psychologist deal with each case and the many exceptions that there are.
It's refreshing to see the medical and healthcare side of the story without the political talking points. 10/10 would recommend it to anyone

We have produced so much media about how gender norms are silly and benefit no one and yet here we still are as a society, somehow, still making kids miserable for not comforming

I like how he's not beind disrespectful about either type of transgender children. It's kind of rare, actually.

The commenters who say this doctor is influencing kids need to watch the whole interview, he goes into lots of detail about how he explicitly explains to kids that just because they enjoy activities associated with another gender doesn’t mean they are trans. There are lots of policies in place to really try and ensure kids aren’t “confused”

Expressing yourself, rebelling, finding an identity, raging against the machine-
It’s what kids do
It’s what they’ve ALWAYS done

I am gender apathetic, I wear whatever I find comfortable and do whatever I want. Most of the time that leads me to present male, but I do have plenty of clothing that would be called girly or feminine. Also I genuinely have no preferred pronouns, refer to me however the hell you want.

We really need to be more open about this stuff and just let kids express themselves however they want. Let's not treat it as something wrong or shameful

In the early 1900’s hardly anybody was left handed. After we stopped beating left handed people the rate of left-handedness increased sharply. Crazy how that works huh?

I never felt like I fit in with society's expectations. I was a very outdoorsy girl who did not have domestic interests. They used to call that a tomboy. As I went through puberty I knew I was heterosexual but several times in my life had women question my sexuality due to my physical appearance (muscular and strong) and interests in things traditionally associated with men.

Another side note is that trauma can cause gender dysphoria, and it's a valid reason to transition. For example, I've had horrible trauma with me getting taken advantage of, groomed, and my parents shielding me from older men simply because i was a young girl. All my childhood all i heard was "don't wear that, you'll attract attention to yourself" (and then it was like a t shirt or something..), "hide your hair, it's shameful to proudly show it", "no, you can't have make-up/you can't dye your hair.. you'll attract unwanted attention from men." And then when i did get hurt by those same men since i was too young to fully understand, they blamed me for it, so i grew up hating the fact that i was a girl. I hated my body with a passion, and got so depressed and so stressed that i started S/h and had an ED for the longest time, i hated my thighs for how big they were, my chest for how visible it was, my height for how short i was and more.. so i was very, VERY uncomfortable as a female. And then i found out about transgenderism, and heard from people who transitioned, and those who haven't already.. and even those who did and regretted it. And i wondered if I'd be happier as a boy. The answer was simple, yes. I would. I know boys have it tough as well, but i didn't care, i just wanted to finally feel comfortable in my skin cause therapy wasn't doing much. I told my therapist this and we started talking more about transgenderism, transitioning and such. And now, I couldn't be happier as a man. I still have that younger self with me, slowly working on healing my inner child for me and for her. And i hope that she's proud of where I've come now. Thank you for reading this.
Edit: what I'm tryna say is that as long as you're happy and you're not hurting anybody or yourself.. knock yourself out.

I’m in the category of having pretty evident dysphoria but being too depressed, broke, and self conscious to attempt physical transition

I think the biggest problem with why kids are so confused nowadays is because of how strict society is on certain things, like colors and toys and clothing. None of those things have genders, a little girl liking trucks doesn’t mean she’s actually a boy it just means that she likes trucks. Same thing with if a little boy likes pink. I think we need to take the socially decided gender out of objects and such, it would be so much better.

I'm happy as a woman who has some masculine interests, though when i was younger i really wished i was a boy because i'd be stronger and more accepted. Girls didnt like me and boys didnt like hanging out with a gjrl.
I think it'd also be nice to have more parents and society be more accepting of boys being emotionally vulnerable and girls being tougher or with non-stereotypical interests. Because lets be real, school is a wild and vicious jungle we all have to go survive through.

If a nonbinary person doesn't want gender-affirming surgery, it's because they're nonbinary
They're somewhere in between, so sometimes their current body isn't any worse then transitioning.
I'm genderfluid, and I don't plan on transitioning because I know I'll have the same amount of gender dysphoria if I do so.
Some people consider nonbinary to be under the trans umbrella, which is why not all of your clients who identify as trans want to transition. It's a labels game.
My gender has nothing to do with "societal expectations". I didn't choose to identify as something other than binary because I felt like it. I did it because I'm not binary.

That’s me! I identify as agender, but I’m still completely fine with presenting very masculine, the way I was born. I love being feminine, androgynous, and masculine, and I’m very glad I live in a day and age where that is more accepted. I personally don’t feel like any gender, whether it’s binary or not. In my mind, I fit into nothing, so I am just agender.

In the 1950's and 60's I was a tomboy and no one cared at all. Puberty was hard on me, but I got through it. And even now at age 73, I still am a bit of a tomboy. My grandchildren like that.
