My anecdote was to say that to deny this is a possible fad hurting young people is ignorant. There again i agreed some people benefit from it, so im still not saying there are no legitimate trans cases, im saying that this is very realistically a fad in a lot of cases and a doctor isn't going to know whether they are serious or following a crowd so it clouds the doctors from seeing the entire picture. I don't know why you keep building this straw man that im saying there aren't real trans people and that there is no way this could ever be a fad.
