I think transgenderism will be looked back on as a primarily gen z phenomena (reminder to the oldfags that some of us are reaching 30 now) and gen alpha is gonna look down on our generation as weird like we do millennials. I'm all for gender expression so I'm mostly talking about HRT cycles and surgeries, I think they're gonna be phased out of the zeitgeist when trans people start aging and more extensive studies are done. This is already happening in Scandinavian countries to a degree
>>82481971i feel as if the opposite is going to happen, more and more gen alphas are gonna troon out and gen z will make fun of them
i think trans people are just gonna offset more and more of the gay and lesbian population
cant wait to see the graph that plots aging gen z troons and suicide rates as they come into middle age years
>>82482299Seriously what are they gonna do? They look pretty bad now in their 20s but 50, 60, 70 year old troons are going to look fucking hideous. What happens when they get Alzheimer's? Does all the troon crap go out the window and they revert back to their natural sex? You don't have much control at that point
I think transgenderism will be looked back on as another right-wing boogeyman, something that was a rather insignificant and benign part of society but that right-wingers constantly talked about and demonized in order to rally populist moral-panicky voters. Said another way, history will remember how society treated transgenderism rather than transgenderism itself, because the former phenomenon has been much more broadly important. In that sense it doesn't matter much whether transgenderism is a trend or not.
>>82481971Dont even know how zoomers can even attempt to look down on millennials. Must be a coping mechanism. Youre mogged by us. The only argument you have is that 80s millennials tend to be cringe oofy doofy star wars so-e-boys and thats it. Your generation is 20 something % lgbt. That alone says everything you need to know about zoomers. Millennials and alphas are gonna bond over shitting on zoom zooms.
>>82481971It's a millennial thing first and foremost imo, at least how I remember it>>82482176This. Mental conditions evolve depending on social conditions, catatonic schizophrenia used to be the most common type but is now almost completely extinct with paranoid schizophrenia taking over
Trans people have existed for as long as time (at least since 1200BC). I think it'll be more similar to other mental challenges where you learn you have it then you can treat it (transition)
>>82482693I think people are being so dishonest when they cite things like this, yes of course it's a thing that's been apparent throughout history but OP is saying primarily gen z because OBVIOUSLY there has been a tremendous spike in transitioning during the 21st century, an inarguable spike.
>>82482712It just became a fad for young people like how hippie, goth or emo were before
>>82481971szechzechzrch add me back
>>82481971It's a natural human fetish so it's going to stick like homosexuality has for years
>>82481971totally wrong, we are the generation that grew up with the internet, hence new lifetstyles and ways of existing are becoming normalized and will continue to be so
>>82481971Used to be such a great thing but ugly autistic white dudes ruined it like most things.
