I question whether this situation would ever arise without the intervention of crazy adults. It is natural - practically inevitable - for children to cross over arbitrary social "gender" lines. It is also natural for young children to be somewhat confused about biological sex.
It is only the response of adults that can turn children's natural behavior into an identity crisis requiring the overthrow of all previous societal norms.
If you see your daughter playing with a truck, do you think that's normal, or do you decide she is crying out to be a boy, and go from there?
Why is any of that “natural” or “inevitable”? As a kid, I’ve never done any of that nor had any urge to. Certainly not as an adult.
Seems like every darned agitprop transgender sympathy article reveals a blatantly dysfunctional back story about the family dynamics. They don't necessarily involve sexual abuse/perversion. A common thread is that the parents of the confused children have no ability or interest in handling the demands and tantrums of small children, so the little ones end up wearing the pants in the family, when all they want/need is to have the parents in control. As in having normal parents who parent instead of these kooky dipsh!ts who dump inappropriate decision-making upon innocent children.
Another example is when parents project their desire for a boy/girl upon the poor kid wasn't the sex they wanted. With enough money anything can be redefined as "normal".
One story involved a mother who forced her daughters (starting with the older one) to dress very girly, so much so that there were constant control battles and crying and screaming. The younger daughter observed that her brother was not terrorized in this manner, so lo and behold, she kept insisting that she was a boy. Gee I can't imagine why. /s Of course the wacko mother didn't recognize the problem in the mirror, but choose to embrace/defend/advocate for her daughter's "choice".
Sodom fried for less.
