Why is it when a patent comes in claiming their toddler is trans no psychiatrist thinks it's the parent who needs treatment?

Don't forget a healthy dose of "feminism to me means I get my way all the time" leading to them thinking "but I wanted to have a pretty little girl who'd grow up to be my best friend, and it's so UNFAIR I had to give birth to a yucky boy with boy germs...well, that's an easy fix..."

who'd grow up to be my best friend

Or just as likely "who'd grow up to be the beautiful, popular, alpha bitch/queen bee that I always wanted to be but never was."

Por que no los dos? The real answer is "the pretty daughter grows up to be your best friend AND the beautiful, popular, alpha bitch/queen bee that they always wanted to be, which means they drag their best friend mommy to get to be the "cool mom" who gets to hang out with the cool girl clique in high school, get them beer and pot to be part of the gang, let them party at her house so she's invited and gets that high school quarterback dick in its prime instead of 20 years from now when the guy's pathetic." It's all connected!
