“You didnt understand the gender you’re biologically born as at 12?”

You’re comparing a fact with a thought.
You're confusing gender with sexuality breh. They have different definitions.

either of the two sexes (male and female), especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones. The term is also used more broadly to denote a range of identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.

Sometimes its a mental illness. it’s called body dysmorphia but since trans people are bulletproof we have to dance around that possibility because you can’t question anything about it.
That very well could be the case but I don't doubt that Wade didn't take those steps with the resources they have available.

You didn't understand your gender at 12? Or 15?

This has nothing to do with sexual activity.
Fair, but there were plenty still questioning what or who they were during those ages. I have a few friends that thought they were something during that age and turns out they were just having an exploratory phase

Didn't Gabby take him to a pride parade not too long ago? We can assume a lot of things, but exposing children to things that they should probably wait until they're adults, is a novel concept today. And that goes for a lot of things. It's his kid, and I personally dgaf. It's that since Wade and Gabby have come out on behalf of their child, it simply feels like one big ego checkbox.

I'll be curious how he turns out in 25 years, and that isnt a negative statement. In today's world of anti-bullying, posturing, and acceptance of all things LGBTQ - he'll have no excuse to look back and say he didn't have support. Or that he felt rejected. I am curious how this will all turn out in the future as these kids reach adulthood, and they may start to feel big regrets. Or blame the parents for putting pressure on them.

I still don't see the connection. If you were to ask most trans and/or gay people, they'll tell they knew very early on.

Take my brother for example. Grew up in the same 2 parent household as me. Only 2 years apart. Similar upbringing. He came out in his mid 20's. My sister and I are straight. Looking back, it was plainly obvious by the time dude was 12-13 that he was different but not different enough for most people to notice or care. Did that happen because he was exposed to some parade or some shyt? Nah. That's just how he was born. If he felt people were more open about it, I'm sure he would've come out much earlier.

I knew exactly what you meant.

Zaya might feel he’s a girl, but genetically, he’s not and never will be.

This is a mental illness. But when LGBT is profitable as well as genital surgery.
Well, we can agree to disagree there bro.
