  • I'm not saying that the family talks them out of it. I am saying that they don't even consider it at all! If there is acceptance there is no (worsening) depression.
    Of course there are some trans people that wanna commit suicide for multiple reasons. What i am trying to say is, if we were all accepting, being trans would not be the reason they would kill themselves for.
    I hope i am making sense, English is not my first (not even my second lol) language.

    • When you celebrate it and make it trendy you have many kids that have trouble fitting in become trans to join the club and be considered cool and get to hang out with these lgtb ppl. I worry many of them are not really trans they're being encouraged to do it until it's too late and they realize it was a mistake but their bodies have been permanently altered with hormones

      • I get that you think now it's becoming "trendy" bc it has become more visible.
        Trans people have always being here, maybe not as loud bc there wasn't this much acceptance, and now that they have a better environment they feel safer and that's why they come out. That's why you have older people on their 50's coming out as trans. Visibility might make it seem like there are more of them but that's just perspective, and obviously with social media, the content is even more accessible.
        Kids don't have access to that stuff such as gender affirming surgeries or hormones (at least in my county i think). They even have to go through multiple years of psychological examination done by professionals.
        Even if that was the case, i don't think anyone would choose to be picked on by everyone else just bc of how they are. I know it might seem like there is a lot of acceptance online, but that's just it. Online. In real life people deal with the trouble of being trans. Is not cool. Not cool at all, and they know it. And if they don't they'll realize soon enough and will stop pretending.
