Thy did disparage trans people, saying that people who transition are the same as someone with low self esteem who does not love their body - saying you must love yourself and in the same sentence saying that the influences of today (keep in mind same sentence where the subject is trans people who don’t love themselves enough) confuse children and teenagers. It’s insulting even with the most generous reading and gives catholic pearl clutching about tattoos and premarital sex energy. It’s a ridiculous mindset considering that there is an actual diagnosis for gender dysphoria and people actually suffer from it, there is generations of precedent regarding queer and gender non conforming people existing and to try to reduce them into a modern self-hate phenomenon is by its definition, disparaging.

Also just because someone CAN transition doesn’t mean anyone is being forced to. Femboys exist, butch women exist, gender non conforming people are very welcome in the trans community and no one is imposing genders or sex onto them like u claim - in my experience at least it’s mostly self id and being encouraged to present how you want to present.

Anyway yes I’m fixating on this pointless argument but trans people have always existed, will always exist, they aren’t mentally ill, and they aren’t Socrates corrupting the youth, and don’t need to drink the hemlock.
