The problem in a nutshell

40 years ago expression and identity were mostly kept separate. Transsexuals with intense dysphoria transitioned (especially if androphilic to start with) and straight and gay men had dressing clubs and drag balls respectively or they expressed themselves at home. 

Today we have mixed them together which includes dysphoric and non-dysphoric people alike. It seemed to work well for a while until a boundary was crossed (after the tipping point of 2015) when criticals said enough was enough. These people were from church groups, more radical forms of feminism and plain old haters. 

In an ideal world heresy against the binary wouldn't be so politicized but humans can't help themselves and women's suffrage under patriarchy made advancements by gender variant people particularly galling for some of them. It was much like the classic transsexual backlash against those who they deemed to be pretenders via their arguments for the legitimacy of transmedicalism. 

Of course things were never that simple and people who were themselves constrained by strict gender roles for decades by virtue of birth era stayed put. Some may have wanted to transition decades ago but critical life decisions made that all but impossible. 

Therefore under this new created tent came a new set of problems. Under the banner of 'trans', some current youth are having some trouble separating their freedom of expression with issues of identity and some experimented with transition and regretted (even if the percentage is low). Older gender variant people with little to no dysphoria who had felt constrained and shunned for years were also included as were a host of new identities with younger people calling themselves non-binary or gender non-conforming instead of using outdated terms. Some of this latter group don't question core identity very much but want to be freed from gender constraints.

Gender variance doesn't have the same exact motivations for everyone and you can see where I am going with this. 

The new expanded universe of transparency is fine because society is a mosaic but it has been causing problems for a public that is largely confused and uneducated in the topic. Most of them don't care and are slowly adapting but there is a percentage that will fight this tooth and nail as it puts their deeply held dogmas into question. Conservatives are the most apt to get their panties in a bunch over it.

I for one am glad for the transparency provided that we recognize the distinctions where help is needed which invariably comes down to the presence of gender dysphoria and how to deal with it without overshooting. At this point it is not elective but requires dealing with in some form or other. I would have been spared a lot of problems if I had the resources and knowledge I possess today and I want others to avoid the same experience.
