The concept of gender fluidity, or whatever gender confusion that exists, is contrary to what 99%(or substitute this number for another large majority) of people experience. I'm not someone who picks on the SJW crowd too much, but they are at the forefront for affirming the confusion that some people experience, and the result in society will be more kids being confused.
People who affirm the idea that gender distinctions serve no purpose are those who will no longer get my vote(unless they are running against Donald Trump).
I can conceptually try and understand that. If one has been exposed to a certain understanding of gender, and they feel it is a non-subjective understanding, then anything that posits differently would seem very affronting. I do wonder about the long-term sustainability of that position though, given that if even 1% of the population is gender expansive (and if they achieve any kind of fondness, notoriety, or fame) then inevitably people will learn of their existence. Do we just never speak about it then and pretend like it doesn't happen? Or, is the path forward that we do speak about it, but through the lens that it is abnormal and shouldn't be taken seriously as anything more than an outlier?
