People who believe that small children are proof that gender roles are natural are really on a whole other level.
A young child, using words she learned purely by mimicking the way others speak: I want to be a mommy when I grow up.
Y’all absolute Mensa candidates: Wow. This child is a blank slate. Completely unaffected by society. Guess lady-brains truly are the only explanation here, science deniers.
No one here ever said that. This is a strawman of the argument that kids can have sex dysphoria.
Tucutes and Terfs really need to stop believing that gender roles and gender are one and the same. Liking blue instead of pink and wearing jeans instead of skirts isn’t the same as your brain screaming “WHY DON’T I HAVE A PENIS???” every time you look in the mirror and feeling crippling depression every time you undress.
Gender roles differ from culture to culture and are imposed by society, however your genetic makeup stays the same everywhere you are.
