Some people will have severe gender dysphoria from when they were toddlers but I don't understand how people can say that this isn't contagious in some cases. I was reading on a forum about a teacher who had 8 transmen (around 14 year olds) in her year group at school and how, after a few months of home schooling and being away from that social group... 7 of them had decided that they weren't trans after all.

How do you go from prancing around in school going "Ummm.... It's Aiden okay?? Dead naming me literally kills me. And my pronouns are he/him and I insist on using the boy's toilet/locker room or else you're twansphobic uwu!" to "WHoops! Never mind! False alarm!"

I really wonder how many of these girls are too ashamed to desist?

I think they are just not very bright and blindly following the leader. The same thread talked about how one of them declared themselves to be a gay trans man but refused to date another gay trans man because that would make her a lesbian, failing to see the hypocrisy.

Deep down inside, she knows the truth. Though I'd love to see the other "trans men" rip her a new fronthole for the twansphobic thought crime she just accidentally confessed to.

Was that the poster who while simultaneously claiming to be a gay trans man said “no, ew” to dating another trans man because they would have the “same parts” as her? Like wtf do they think gay is? That is like the essence of being gay ffs, not whatever “I’m attracted to the opposite sex but that attraction always felt queer” BS.
