You've got a point about the difference between sex and gender. The World Health Organization even agrees with you, distinguishing sex as biological and physiological characteristics, while gender is "the social roles, behaviors, activities, and attributes that a society considers appropriate for men and women".
But then you mentioned that less than 1% of people are trans, and while that's true, it's like saying "Only a few people like pineapple on pizza, so it's not a big deal." Except, it is a big deal to those who enjoy that sweet and savory combo. Just like it's a big deal to those who identify as trans.
So, let's keep things interesting - you've made your point clear on the gender issue. But what about this 'cancer on society' that you mentioned, these social standards we hold? Can you expand on this? What specific social standard do you believe is causing the most harm, and how would you propose we address it?

I don’t believe they’re causing societal harm, I actually am a supporter for trans rights. I’m saying that their claim that it’s an “epidemic” is stupid and that few actually are trans so considering it as such is not only stupid, it’s just flagrantly wrong. At most, I’d have uniform requirements that clinics must have a good reason to do bottom surgery below 18, same way at is already is. Though my main target is the many anti-trans laws in effect right now, especially in states like Texas or Florida. I know way too many people that these anti-trans laws hurt, and I consider those laws to be a disgrace to civil rights entirely. Sorry, I probably worded that wrong before, but I’m fully on the side of trans people, I just needed to humble that guy’s perception.
