Thumbing their noses

Some older gender variant people are confused by and even disappointed with today's environment. In the past there were basically (and regrettably simplistically) "crossdressers" and transsexuals and the changing landscape has seen some of them thumb their nose at what they currently see. 

I hold the opposite view primarily because the stigma has been removed through the visibility and in your face attitude of youth. Both of the aforementioned older groups were basically in hiding for most of their lives (whether closeted or through stealth transition) which is sadly regeetable but understandable. This has created in some psychological blockages and scars which could remain for an entire lifetime. 

My politics have always been just left of center, so the idea of things staying the same for their own sake does not compute. I take in the current confusion including detransitions and youth rushing into hormones without much reflection preferring it to closeted behavior by a very wide margin. Things will baseline eventually as they always do even if some in the public will never get with the program as stupid isn't fixable in everyone.

I'm simply too old to be in hiding plus these days I wipe my tush with uninformed opinion.
