Research has shown that even if you raise a cis kid as trans, it doesn't work. They end up just as depressed as transfolk. Take your bigotry somewhere else.

So, that's perfect -- stop trying to then. Stop trying to introduce it everywhere. It's a statistical outlier, and we shouldn't be propagandizing the youth with it. This is just religion in a different coat. Christians make up a majority of the people in America, as well as Europe (so, most English speaking TV) and you don't see the cross being tossed into every childrens show in order to push it. So if we don't do it with that religion, we should stop doing it with this whole trans religion. Because that's what it's become at this point -- a religion.

When you believe that showing children that something exists is equivalent to propaganda, you are part of the problem.

God forbid someone have to tell their kids "sometimes men love other men", or "sometimes, people are born with a body and mind that don't agree with each other".

You are using the exact same arguments people have used to keep gay people, black people, and anyone else they hate from being represented in media forever

You don't see the cross being tossed into every children's show

This is a ridiculously inaccurate statement. Characters have been going to church, or reading the Bible, or wearing a cross necklace, or any of a hundred other forms of displaying Christian identity in television, movies, and ALL other media since the rise of Christianity.

I'm not sure whether you're being intentionally misleading or just are blind to the reality you've been living in, but it's seriously worrying.

Seriously, reflect on yourself a bit. You sound really ignorant and hateful

Trying to talk sense to bigots is nearly always pointless – the majority of them are fundamentally shitty people and will never change.
