Wait until they learn that basically no one fits into the neat little gender boxes and that everyone is "gender-diverse." When everyone is special no one will be.

That's the thing, and it's the reason that transgender-identification ideology is so immensely harmful and hurtful. Every person is different, and people know this to the extent that it goes without saying. Of course not everyone follows the same sex roles. To imply that cisgender-identified individuals fit perfectly into these totalitarian, patriarchal boxes is to imply that the boxes possess, to one degree or another, some naturalistic basis, that they follow performativity on the basis of DNA. This is entirely incorrect. Gender has no science. Science knows no such thing as 'gender.' What exists, instead, is the reality that women and men, girls and boys, behave as they do because society forces them to do so, that they're not permitted to express their true selves.

But, in rejecting social constructs, an example being femininity, femaleness and maleness are not lost, but rather identified. To be female means to belong to the female sex, and the same for males. Whether TRAs realise it or otherwise, every single act of freedom is a rejection, a condemnation, of gender ideology, of the gendered process.

By the standards of gender ideologues, women and girls didn't exist until only a few thousand years ago, since femininity had yet been invented. 'Female clothing' didn't even exist. All these products, constructs, are extremely recent in the grand scheme of human history.

Gender diversity refers to people whose gender identities or gender expressions differ from the sexes they were assigned at birth,

That statement makes no sense. Their sex was not assigned, but observed. We all know that. One's sex does not have a gender expression. All they are saying is that many females don't do stereotypically girly things, and likewise for males. Life has always been that way and it does not mean you are the opposite sex.

This is such brainwashing. "How many of you AMAB here like to cook? How many of you AFAB don't wear nail polish? You're all transgender!" BULL. SHIT. They've poisoned so many young minds.

It's gonna take decades to reserve the damage this ideology has done. Teaching teens they are not a man or a woman because they like wearing make up AND playing sports smh... Get me off this planet.
