People are ignorant on this issue and they are absolutely desperate not to be late to the liberation party of a new group. They are scared that they are oppressing trans people like gay people were, and they know it was wrong to oppress gay people. At least this has certainly been by experience.

There really is no simpler explanation for this phenomenon of so many ordinary people buying into this charade so quickly and thoughtlessly. They believe they are helping by affirming anyone's gender identity without question, but instead they are hurting by delegitimizing the biological sexes and the associated and dependent sexual orientations. The heart without the mind is like driving while blind. Emotionally manipulative TRA rhetoric is the blindfold. The power of the majority is the vehicle itself.
