    Again, not transitioning is also a choice, a choice informed by ideology and forced upon the child. Anti-scientific bullshit.

    Also, there are just as many trans people in your country as anywhere else. They are probably oppressed enough to not come out the closet.

      Doing nothing to the condition that was unrecognized for most of the human history and nowadays is still not widely known or still being questioned can also be inertia or cautiousness rather than forced ideology. It’s only anti-scientific if people get to know all the science behind it and proceed to deny it. But in my previous post I don’t call to deny it for minors I only meant that minors shouldn’t be able to do it on a whim, without proofs of condition being present. And for those without condition, not transitioning is not a choice in the same sense, because it doesn’t carry negative consequences, while trying to transition actually can.

      Also, there are just as many trans people in your country as anywhere else. They are probably oppressed enough to not come out the closet.

      This is also a way to explain it. No way to check which one is real, but it is certainly a possibility.
