Thank you so much for sharing your experience and point of view. It breaks my heart to see the negative impact gender ideology has had on my lesbian and gay friends. I agree with you 100% but as a heterosexual married woman, I do not feel safe sharing this point of view publicly. I am the mother of an 18 year old son who just graduated from high school and I also share your concerns regarding the impact this ideology is having on the ability of gen z kids to develop healthy romantic relationships. I pray that someday we will return to a place where gender (self representation) isn’t so closely tied to sex (biology). I want to return to a time where there are only two biological sexes and it is ok to be a masculine woman or a feminine man.
Thanks so much for your kind feedback. I’m a beginner at this so am learning.
These are strange times indeed. The trans movement, gender ideology and intersectionality is what I find problematic. I support individuals who have a desire to explore gender and express themselves in a variety of ways to externalize the internal. What is problematic is the angry activism that righteously shames institutions in medicine, education, media and elsewhere to automatically adopt a new ideology that may be disrespectful, culturally insensitive and harmful to people, particularly young people. Also what is hard for me are the caricatures of extreme masculinity and femininity, stereotypes we should have left behind as we evolved into more sophisticated layered humans, able to express a variety of qualities and characteristics. And finally, like you, I feel the take over of others’ spaces and common spaces like high school and Pride events is having unintended, known and not yet known, consequences.

Trans culture appears to be anti-gay and the ultimate 'conversion therapy'.
