"outdated views of transgender people"

Then I must be real outdated... I still believe they should be put out of our misery.
If nothing else, at least ship them to their own island.

“Outdated” is a rhetorical flourish meant to sneer you out of existence without addressing the issue.

Really?

My middle child was diagnosed by two different teams of Endocrinologists with an incurable endocrine defect. Her body was slowly masculinizing naturally after she hit puberty and the adrenal receptors in her brain were recognizing free-floating androgens as testosterone. She is one of the unlucky .001% of the population born with this particular variant disorder.

God made her this way.

She is incredibly smart (scored in the top 1% of standardized tests across the state), funny, kind, loving, hardworking, and lives a clean life (doesn’t drink, smoke, do drugs, or mess around). She was raised in a loving, intact Christian household.

But go ahead, lump her in with the degenerates that grab headlines today if it makes you feel better. Just recognize that not everyone chose to be trans.
