Self-evidently a 'she'.

'I only realized I was a guy a few days ago and now I have to endure people using the same name and pronouns I was fine with yesterday, and no one realizes how hurtful that is. I'm scared of being thrown out of the house by people I'm now accusing of transphobia and abuse.'

If Abigail Shrier's book were a documentary, this would be one of the scenes. Textbook ROGD, complete with blatant peer influence. Notice the older woman standing on the sidelines of the group, looking perplexed?

"I'm scared of being thrown out of the house by the people I'm now accusing of transphobia and abuse"

When I was a kid - 10, 12, something like that - my mom grounded me for some preteen infraction - talking back, not cleaning my room, failing to complete some chore - that escapes my memory. I threw a fit, as kids that age are wont to do, and accused my mother of child abuse. I remember this because my mother, bless her, handed me a piece of paper with the phone number of a child abuse hotline and told me to call them and report her. Of course, I never did, because even at the time I knew I wasn't being abused.

It terrifies me to know I were a few decades younger, and my mom's "abuse" consisted of not calling me by the name I'd chosen for myself five minutes earlier, I might have been emboldened to call the child hotline and give a truthful account of my situation, knowing that there was a decent chance they'd take me completely seriously.

Lol when are they going to realize this doesn't make them any more interesting?

When they find the self-esteem to live life without ersatz "truths" spoon-fed to them by the academic media.

Saw this the other day. Really nothing funny about it, though of course most of Twitter was either crying tears of joy or mocking relentlessly.

This poor girl is going to destroy her body and regret it so terribly.
