I will never for the life of me understand why society continues to cater to the whims of trans people and encourage all of their absurd navel-gazing. I’m sure people with body dysmorphic disorder or an eating disorder would feel triggered by full length mirrors or having to wear tight swimsuits in public or similar issues to the ones addressed in this article. Why are all of them supposed to just suffer through and toughen up? I’d suspect nearly every person on the planet feels uncomfortable to varying degrees in locker rooms, all for their own reasons – why aren’t their “needs” addressed? Why do so many people and groups coddle trans people beyond any and all reasonable measures? It seems like anything that makes any trans person even slightly uncomfortable is immediately made into a human rights issue. Why the fuck are the rest of us expected to grin and bear it, but not them?

Came here to say this. I wanted to add something but you hit the nail on the head. It's the narcissism. They don't understand that the majority of the world has the same struggles they do, but they think they're special, they think their struggles are the only ones that matter. And now that companies + big pharma has realized trans pandering is a great way to get fake woke points and make money, their narcissism is being rewarded. It's insane.
