I am thrilled to hear your take on this cultural change, as I’ve been observing this rapid change in identities in teenagers and perplexed as to whether it is harmless or harmful. It seems you both believe it to be a harmless cultural transition. The worrisome part to me- which I cannot decide how worried to be about- is youth gender transitions. The physical changes (which relatively few undertake) are often irreversible and have great potential for physical and psychological harm. Please consider further discussion on this point.

I greatly value both of your perspectives.
