I would suggest to anyone defending the new gender ideology to consider why you are doing so....
Is it because you've taken a very close look at the issue and believe that you have a good understanding of it and genuinely believe that you're supporting smart, helpful decisions and policies that benefit society?
Or perhaps you've got a surface level understanding of the issues, have given it little to no thought, and you're merely repeating rhetorical and political arguments in favor of something you don't really understand....because you believe it's the morally empathetic/good thing to do, or even just because your peer group's political leanings support this so you do as well...
I think it's only fair to warn you that the tide is slowly turning on this stuff...and not so much because of Christian teachers...but from former members of the lgbtq activists, former trans activists, members of the gay and trans community generally who didn't consider themselves activists, doctors and scientists who are more concerned about the health and safety of children (and adults) than being labeled bigots in their colleagues eyes, and of course....parents and family members of those hurt by this cultish activist community. There are a few independent journalists giving other journalists courage to confront this as well.
The picture they are painting of the radical trans activists is increasingly horrific. They sound more like a cultish group of incels than a group of genuinely oppressed minorities seeking equal rights. They sound delusional, bigoted, obsessive, completely unethical in regards to either healthcare or activism. It's a bad situation that as more speak up....only appears worse, it rarely really appears to be something built on understanding, healthcare, or even empathy.
So if you think you may generally be in that second category of people (here's a hint, did you know what a terf was before the news told you? Is JK Rowling getting labeled a terf online maybe the first time you heard of the term? How about the term "truescum" or "true-scum"? Do you know who that refers to or would you need to look it up? If you answered yes to the terf question and no to the truescum question....you're almost certainly in the second group).
I would suggest that you look into the issue a little more if you're in the second group. I'm not saying who to vote for, I'm not saying that you're moral or immoral nor will I tell you the correct way to deal with any trans people in real life. I'm simply saying there are an increasing number of people who were trans activists/medical experts/gender cultists....or knew them closely....and they're willing to give insider accounts of what these people believe, their goals, and their methods....and it's not a pretty picture. I have no problem saying that I would deny any requests/demands of trans activists on principle alone....not so much because I disagree with their beliefs, but their goals are delusional and harmful and activist methods are completely unethical/immoral imo.
This doesn't have to play out like Black Lives Matter did...you don't have to wait and see if the people claiming to want to help others are in it for the money. It doesn't have to go the same way as the children's books filled with graphic sexual images and dangerous "advice"....where you learn you were wrong when they can't even show the pages of the books on the evening news. You don't have to wait until ten million people flood across the border, squat in people's homes, drain the economic resources of the poor, and complain about not getting enough help to find out you were wrong about the southern border having an illegal immigration crisis.
Let's not wait until a generation of 20-30 year old people (mostly women probably) are killing themselves in record numbers because of what was done to them as children or teens before looking into this more carefully and figuring out who is correct here.
