My take was that big pharma wanted life long patients. Once you start messing with the natural hormones you’re screwed for life. I kind of thought they might be the money behind it. I have a few gay/lesbian friends that are horrified by the movement.
Very well written! I grew up in the 70s-80s with the notion and encouragement that I could do whatever I wanted outside of gender norms. As such I had a very successful career that was primarily carried out by the opposite sex. I saw those walls dissolve, along with many other gender stereotypes. Suddenly the stereotype defines women and men? It did happen so quickly.
I think you make one absolutely incontestable point: "Being trans is difficult"
Everything else we think we "know" is hypothesis, theory and conjecture.
One of my own theories is that reaching deeper understanding is made nearly impossible by the trend of self-conception aligned with copulative preference and technique.
Then again, friends think me hopelessly old-fashioned for considering "sexual identity" a meaningless and counterproductive designation. It's terribly passe to consider a brilliant woodcarver and talented pianist a craftsman and musician, rather than "gay."
I also find the designation "dysphoria"unconvincing when applied to most, when dysmorphia is readily verifiable and elided in favor of the unwholesome emphasis on secondary sexual characteristics.
Being raised in a (mostly) Liberal milieu, There appears to me, to be a (possibly spurious) correlation with the "we gotta do something" mentality that leads to counterproductive activism.
It leaves me interested in ways to help people manage their pain without indulging in self-harm. Life is indeed "solitary, nasty, brutish and short." We're not here for very long, and it's worthwhile to make an effort to alleviate such misery as we can.
The death, forty years ago, of the craftsman-musician I referred to above, has affected my thinking with regard to these matters. His romantic proclivities were entirely irrelevant to the wide circle of friends he had, but not to their wives and girlfriends that castigated them for befriending a man with AIDS. It was instructive to observe.
It seems to me that redefining terms such as "gender" has led to something akin to the biblical Tower Of Babel; no one understands what anyone else is trying to say to them.
As far as the pharma theory goes, it has merit, but in business, it's rather difficult to separate opportunism from structured outcomes.
It's due to inflammation in the brain I think. It is inflammation during pregnancy (see Kathryn Lenz experiments where allergic reactions caused LGBT offspring), inflammation after adrenarche (6 years old) in the hypothalamus-adrenal-thyroid-gonads axis (PCOS, thyroiditis, adrenal hyperplasia disrupt sexual hormones and stress response), inflammation in the brain (in depression, OCD, encephalitis). The inflammation is from pesticides, heavy metals, electromagnetic fields, artificial light (less melatonin), noises (less sleep), antibiotics (damaged mitochondria, less microbes), hygiene (less helminths, biting insects, microbes), vaccines; high sugar, high fat, low nutrient, high allergen diets. The interactions with other individuals suffering from mental health issues due to the same factors (families, schools, cultures) compounds the effect.
Toby, you can be rest assured that Pharma and chemical industrial complex companies have access to all the studies on every side effect of their products. Why do you think all the marketing efforts put forth by such groups go to such great extremes to ensure the truth is never found. The reality is if they wanted their products to truly be safe and effective, they would make them as such but the cost of doing so might require that they pull their products from the market, and that is not going to please shareholders, ever. We live in interesting times where corporatism, seemingly rules right along with the billionaires. How might things change??
Once we hit rates similar to autism, families will rise up and get angry, organize and put pressure on government to address the issues as the costs to society will become overwhelming, like they are starting to with the autism epidemic.
https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2019/04/11/lyme-disease-neurological-changes-in-children/ Just one more sad piece of the puzzle, but the real goal is to undo the Law of God. God is a scientist, not a magician. We exist at the smallest particle because matter submits to His order. To usurp Gods' order is to unseat Him from His throne as other secular kingdoms. In the end however His faithful servants of land, sea and sky will turn on His enemies to destroy them. We are, once again, in the days of Noah and the days of Sodom.

Caitlyn Jenner, Rachel Levine, Jennifer Pritzker, and Chelsea Manning et al also could have been paid to do this. The influence of the media and it's arguments from 'authority' are legion.

Why do 'common sense' anti-trans laws - predominantly in 'patriotic red' states - praise and promote forced, permanent surgical procedures done on children born intersex (with sexual characteristics of both genders) as young as literal babies? And forced HRT without consent on intersex people? My little cousin had his private part's skin mutilated for religious reasons (shortly after birth) and nobody batted an eye about it. I do not care what gender/race/religion you are.
And Matt Walsh is a terroristic, sad man. Making b--mb threats, regardless of who/where it's directed at, is a serious crime in itself.
The whole "contagion theory" by Abigail Shrier has been continuously scientifically discredited, as autistics are less likely to follow or care about social norms (such as groups, group talk, street drugs or smoking) and more likely to be into less popular things/not as socially aware as non-autistics about societal norms. "Contagion Theory" is a new version of the "bad parenting theory" used by the extreme right to describe autistics and autistic behaviors. This cannot be "a social contagion" but neurobiological and epigenetic/genetic modification, not socially-driven.
Our own humanity is only about 224-324 years old (look up "cabbage clones" and watch the YouTube channel "Divergent" for more info about this) and we are all genetic experiments to an extent, some more than others. So called "social contagion" actually appears to be (decades before 2020) CRISPR-induced X/Y chromosome editing/genetic mosaicism technology. Countries (such as Chile) have amended their constitution to protect basic rights of genetically modified humans (mutants, in their official papers) such as from workplace discrimination or being denied the right to work, etc. A small number of 'confused' (use whatever language you'd like) people 'detrans' themselves, but the 'detrans' process itself has major health risks as well to research. There is (in most cases) no actual cure for truly 'confused' people, as they are irreversibly genetically modified, neurologically modified humans from infancy, and their brain chemistry, brain structure is permanently different from ordinary males/females (see 'trans brains vs cis brains' brain scans), and forcing hormones that basically 'shut down' their brain (and do not match their physical needs and neurology, such as forcing estrogens/progestins into transgender males, with estrogen overload from severe/morbid obesity), has major health risks, physical and mental, that make the entire 'detrans' process also very concerning to me and others in biology/health studies, especially when it's forced or if the patient is obese/has other hormone-sensitive health issues.
As a gay person I have been looking for someone to help me understand what is going on. Thank you. Many in health freedom decry the “lgbtq agenda” whatever that is, while in left-leaning groups it’s impossible to question anything without being silenced. Finding folks who can do a rational deep dive is a rare experience. But you just did it. Well done.

Hi Toby, one of my kind subscribers directed me to this post.
I am looking at a number of chemical insults to the foetus that affect adult sexual orientation.
Started with Fluoride, latest is Endotoxin.

This is off: "1 part per billion = one drop of water in an Olympic-size swimming pool." A ppt (trillion) is a drop in 20 Olympic pools.
