It's also basically harmless IF it's allowed to just be what it is and most of them just do a bit of experimenting and then figure themselves out which is completely normal for teens.

It would be fine if it was allowed to just be what it is but it's also simply true that TikTok and other social media sells a version of reality that is patently false; e.g. that puberty blockers are reversible or a good idea, or that reassignment surgery is a simple process and not a major bodily trauma with permanent health consequences.

Exactly
This is why we're in this mess , I can't stand tiktok.

I truly believe that alot of these youngsters would have just been goth or emo if it was back when I was at school,but now with all these influencers they're fed other ideas .
