The transgender issue is not a problem with a bunch of mentally ill people running around demanding everyone call them the wrong pronouns.
The transgender issue is a problem with a bunch of mentally ill people running around feeling a compulsion to seek out minority people and say things to intentionally make those minority people’s lives worse.
In an average year, I might encounter what, I’m going to say maybe about three people who I think might be transgender. Maybe I’m bad at noticing. Let’s be generous and say twelve. One per month. When I read a person complaining about “so many transgender people”, my first thought isn’t “Oh my God the transgenders are coming to get us all!” My first thought is “What is it about this person that makes them so laser-focused on seeking out and harassing these people that I almost never see anywhere?”
