In a roundabout way, I almost... appreciate transgenderism. I don't appreciate trannies or what they do or how they try to convert troubled kids into being trans. But I've come to appreciate that if a grown adult self-describes as trans, there is a 99% chance they have unmanaged autism, porn addiction, inability to treat women like normal people, or some other trait that makes them think "demanding everyone else pretends I'm a different sex than I observably I am? sounds feasible and like the answer to my problems!" It's like having the phrase "I AM BAD NEWS" tattooed on their forehead in neon pink and blue, so I know to avoid them. I shouldn't phrase it like I've always been too smart to interact with trannies, because I haven't. And I would like to be fair to detrans/desisted people who dealt with their problems and got out of that crab bucket. Caveats aside, the movement is like a scupper that collects insufferable people and asks them to wave its banner, and that's not all bad.
