Because the majority of people who speak out against these things do so because of their bigotry. They make no secret of their hatred and disapproval of lifestyles different to theirs.
Children don't have the life experience or maturity for a lot of things.
People can't drink, smoke, drive, join the military, or even open a bank account until they reach a certain age. The reason for all of that is the same. Experience and maturity to make the right decisions. Yet here we are as a society encouraging them to think they are another gender than what biology has determined they are.
Parenting. It all comes down to parenting. They're not being encouraged to be another gender, they're being encouraged to be accepting of those that are different to them.
Adults can be whoever they want to be, that is their choice as someone who has matured to adulthood. A child is not mature enough to make these decisions. I'm all for treating all people the same. I don't support hate speech, I don't support wrecking of Target or Bud Light displays in protest. But I also don't support manipulating the minds of the most impressionable people on the planet to make them believe they are something they probably aren't. I certainly don't support them getting drug or surgical treatment to affirm what they were manipulated to be.

Gender dysmorphia is a mental health issue and should be studied and treated as such, with a lot counseling and in some cases medication. We don't affirm suicidal people by telling them to just go jump off a bridge. So why are we affirming people that think they are a member of the opposite sex with medical science and transforming them? If all of this were so natural, then why doesn't the ability to change gender naturally occur? I couldn't have been done 100 years ago. It's only now with the medical science it can be done.
Interesting point ... but ... trans people have actually been around for centuries. History has proven this and it's occurred in many societies over centuries. Like you said, science is now at the point where people can fully transition.
Yet, it still can't provide reproductive organs or change chromosomes. It's all fake and covered up.
See, I'm going to read into this a little bit here, it almost feels like you're saying "a person isn't a specific gender unless they can have children". So if a woman can't have children (like my partner) does that mean she's not a woman?
It's putting on a mask to hide from reality. It addressing insanity with more insanity.
No ... just no.
But when we point these things out, we are written off as bigots. We aren't bigots, we're thinking with a clear and rational mind.
Clear mind? No ... if you were thinking clearly you'd see more than just "it's a mental disorder" Do your research.
We are tired of being told we have to accept it. We sure as hell are tired of our children being manipulated.
Then be a **** parent and guide your child instead of leaving it to media.

If it's just about promoting different lifestyles then promote them all, including heterosexuals. I'll tell you why. Because it's not about Pride it's about bloated companies trying to remain commercially viable by boosting their CEI scores and targeting to children. And for the record, Gays Against Groomers, who OBVIOUSLY don't adhere to the "heterosexual norm" aren't all for this.
You hear how stupid you sound yeah?
