Another thing that's weird about this.

Do trans activists need to fight the ROGD idea? Couldn't you just say "some people are trans, but some people are misdiagnosed as trans when they have other issues. It's important to differentiate these groups."

I'm sure everyone in here believe in, for the lack of a better term, "people with cancer rights." But wouldn't it be reasonable to check if someone actually has cancer before giving chemo?

I’m a psychiatry resident and rotate on an adolescent ward and it runs around 25% gender divergent, mostly female and identifying as non-binary. Basically all post pubescent and with friends or internet influence. I asked one kid and they said “Well I was talking to my friend and he said I was trans like him and then everyone in the group chat typed one of us,

one of us!” which struck me as comically consistent with ROGD.
