Be aware that AGP rewrite their history.

One symptom of agp is having no real history of gender non conforming behaviour at all yet still coming out with one or two stories where they wanted girls things or dressed as a girl. In truely gnc people their whole childhoods are gnc not just one playtime.

Most kids have the experience of wanting something and not getting it. Most people would be able to find one similar experience to these in their pasts if they thought about it hard enough. This is pretty normal stuff forced to have deeper meaning by men trying to prove they are something they are not.

Was gonna say, some of the stories posted seem at odds. I was poking around on r/AskAGP and a bunch of trans AGP were openly admitting to making stuff up.

Yep, from what I’ve seen, AGP guys lie constantly anyway. Probably has a lot to do with the comorbidity of narcissistic traits, exhibitionism, and attention seeking. A lot of their “validation” tales are very much “everyone clapped” fodder.

I do believe that parents who enforce strict gender roles and shame their children for being different are causing long lasting psychological harm and that TRAs capitalize on that with the “egg” thing and how they target minors to recruit.

If the only toys they’re saying “no” to are “gendered” ones, it certainly leaves the child with a lasting message that their interests or personalities are wrong. I have seen parents shame little boys for wanting to play with dolls and tell them “no” and it wasn’t just the normal “no” for when parents are setting boundaries on number/expense of toys. I was met with shock and confusion and told I was being weird when I went to pick out some train toys for a 3 year old girl who explicitly asked FOR trains, and this was just a few years ago! What century are we in again? These people are still out there.

The “trans trending” which I think is different from AGP, might fall into this category of young people being utterly confused by all the mixed messages they are receiving. I very much believe AGP would lie or prey on young people who feel out of place in terms of gender roles, and spin tales to pull them in to the idea of transitioning. This black and white thinking they engage in just reinforces the same notion over and over.

And thinking about how you pointed out it’s not just ONE playtime or a couple toys, this guy said “I was not a warlock or wizard. I was a witch.” He was allegedly THREE. Kids of that age have no full understanding of sex or gender anyway. Lots of kids will have role play of the opposite sex. It means nothing in particular. Even if he wanted to grow breasts at ten, he realized he couldn’t....at least he kind of recognized bio. reality better at ten than he does as an adult (if this is even a true story). These therapists backing this up are lying and discouraging self-acceptance and reality. 🤦‍♀️
