 That's not any social contagion. It's not because people are being indoctrinated or groomed or anything like that, they claim. It's because, well, this many trans people have always existed. It's just that they didn't feel comfortable identifying themselves as such. Well, it means that trans people existed in Jesus' time. And yet Jesus never says anything about trans rights. Never says anything about it. Actually, one of the very first things we're told in the Bible is that God created us male and female. There's no mention of any other category.
