This article examines how psychiatry and activism shaped the idea of "transgender children," framing childhood gender nonconformity as a medical condition rather than a natural variation. It argues that many kids who don’t fit traditional gender roles would likely grow up to be gay or lesbian, raising questions about whether early medical interventions are necessary or even harmful.
Editor’s Note: The debate over transgender youth is one of the most contentious topics today, with real consequences for kids, families, and medical ethics. This piece challenges mainstream narratives, suggesting that the push to label and treat gender-nonconforming children might be misguided—a perspective that’ll spark strong reactions from all sides. Whether you agree or not, it forces a hard look at how medicine and activism shape our understanding of identity.
