1. I said "evidence suggested", not that there was definitive proof.
2. Not all agree these differences are "minimum":

Source.

Some examples given.
Just as your source noted "The differences between male and female brains in these areas show up all over the world, but scientists also have discovered exceptions to every so-called gender rule."
Thus there is a huge grey area. No one denies there isn't some differences.

"In the scientific literature, there’s evidence for bigger differences in brains between age groups than sexes, Burnett says."

That's makes sense because our brain is continuously wiring itself.

"One startling difference between male and female brains is where they are found. It may surprise many, but male brains are found almost exclusively inside male skulls, whereas female brains are found only inside female skulls! Such an extreme bias in brain-skull association can’t possibly be due to coincidence. The fact that male and female skulls are also different and perfectly sized to house their associated brains is even more unlikely..."

"Gender fluidity" does that mean you're a girl one day and a boy the next? And are people just supposed to play along with that as normal?
My daughter is gender fluid. What is expected of others is irrelevant to a persons state of being. Do you really think that these people jump from one to the other and automatically dress accordingly. You really don't understand any of this do you?

Maybe the child could be going back and forth on the issue. But I'm not seeing why CPS was called. also I'm sure theres more to the story about the teachers being fired.
I don't know but possibly because these concerns had not been addressed or evaluated by a professional and no one intended to see that it happened, but all that is just speculation.
You could be right that we do not know the whole story about the firings and we may never know. I believe TX is an at will state so they could be fired without having any reason, as long as it wasn't related of some protected status.

Then there is this report. The Katy in the headline is reference to Katy Texas.
KTRH Radio:Katy Transgender Child Sparks Debate

With the HERO Ordinance failing this week, you also might have heard pair of daycare workers in Katy were fired over how their daycare center was treating a six year old girl who says she is transgender.

One of the workers, Madeline Kirksey, went public with her concerns for the child that is being raised by a gay couple.

“I don’t think that we should be talking to other people’s children that are under the age of 18, about transgender,” Kirksey said.

Kirksey said the situation caused a lot of confusion.

“One day she wanted to be a girl. The next day she wanted to be a boy,” Kirksey explained. *The Full Article*

Yeah, seriously! You seem to want some lines blurred and seem so tolerant of someone wanting something, but you don't seem to accept the fact that once a line is crossed, then other demands can be made. First, people want to say they're the opposite sex. Second, they want everyone else to identify them as the opposite sex. Third, they want everyone else to allow them to do whatever they please, even if it violates the law. So then they want laws changed, even if it makes people in society uncomfortable for the sake of their own comfort.

When has society ever not stopped changing. This idea of a slippery slope is pure paranoia based on one's inability to control the environment. the world and everyone in it it not required to conform to anyone's comfort level.

From the new article:

“One day she wanted to be a girl. The next day she wanted to be a boy,” Kirksey explained.

Sounds more like gender fluid to me, especially when she says it like that. On the other hand, the child could be just figuring things out still.

No broad brush. Simply the nature of the beast.
Attempts to render humanity into a category comfortable to yourself is denying those who fall outside that category and since those who do fall outside that are greater in number that the person designating this category I have to come to the conclustion you aren't interested in reality.

This leads me to

This, I think is the root of the problem. it's not hard for prejudicial people to assume the worst of those who fall into their crosshairs and as has been exhibited here the absolute lack of knowledge about alternate sexual types is fertile ground for ridiculous comments based on nothing but assumption.

I wish like all heck those who are against such things would make a good faith effort to understand the complexities of these things so they could mount a reasonable arguement about it. I don't mind talking to anyone about anything, but when you have to define these things to others, just to have then through blanket statement about them not conforming to your standards of normal really makes the effort a moot point.

This is part and parcell of the future of our society. Judge how you will, but be informed so when you try to talk with these people you won't go into it blind.

There's a famous case where parents tried to force a normal kid to be trans. It never stuck and he eventually killed himself. I can't remember the case unfortunately.
I'm pretty sure the case you're thinking of is that of David Reimer https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Reimer

It's an awfully tragic case, and it's not as though his parents decided to "force him to be trans" on a whim. He DID have his genitals traumatically destroyed in infancy, and expert medical opinion was that raising him as a girl would be his best shot at "normalcy". So extremely exceptional circumstances, and the medical knowledge of 50 years ago are kind of integral considerations of the matter. His parents didn't just up and decide one day, "hey, you know what mightbe fun? Let's force David to be trans!"

Please state where the Bible itself says anything on the issue of transgender people.

This line of thinking is errant. Where is abortion being a grave sin, or lesbianism, brought up in the scriptures?
Some things are simply self-evident or known between the lines. And then there are things that are simply alien altogether, like a soul going into the wrong body which is what transgenderism basically demands.

"Self evident". I guess it's just "common sense ".

Maybe she's been watching too many liberal news programs on cable TV. It's enough to make anyone confused.

Another false term catch phrase employed by feminists and tumblrites to support the argument gender is just a social construct. It sounds more as if the poor child is tragically confused attempting to please and mollify the demands of her "parents," and may be developing anger issues manifested in the presence of other children not so emotionally encumbered.

No if you want more you should be willing to gain knowledge of this yourself, since it's obvious that you disapprove of it. I would think if you came upon a person such as this, you would want to be as prepared as possible to relate to them as people in order to be about to proselytize to them.

If you think something is wrong here then it is up to you to show the wrongness of it.

These splattered posts only ensure that people who have made up their minds before hand can come together and rant at eachother. This mimics the standards of the media who don't really want to do anything other than discuss other people as if such things won't ultimately effect everybody. Like it or not. Except it or not this is the face of the future that doesn't respect anyone's need for comfort.

It is not a catchphrase and and has nothing to do with feminists. It has to do with the person who is gender fluid.
