Truth is needed, not more and more loud voices denying that we do have an increasing rate of nonbinary or homosexual people. Acceptance needs to be about accepting diversity-not surgically altering it
I found on twitter a lot of people claiming overlap of EDS and Non-binary. Can't remember if these were Long COVID threads, or POTS threads. Definitely important to explore root causes, while also affirming and not erasing the existence and dignity of non-gender conforming persons. They have always been a part of society, and I hate how it had become politicized and weaponized in both directions.
You make some good points, but the trans issue is not all one thing.
For example there is a massive overlap between autism and rapid onset gender dysphoria in teens who have never questioned their gender before.
Then there are the adult men for whom being trans presents like a sexual fetish. That presentation has been termed autogynaephilia.
There's also the social contagion aspect. I think a lot of gay youngsters nowadays are actually being convinced that they are trans.

Interesting and well said, thanks.
I didn't find research on that direct topic but found this - the hormone therapy that feminizes leaves an inability for an erection. They use Viagra type meds for it. https://transtoolshed.com/blogs/news/trans-women-and-viagra
