[Tweet] A redacted "Gender Support Plan" in place in a NY middle school district, sent to Abigail Shrier by the mom of a 12 year old girl. The school district kept "gender change" secret from the mom. The only reason mom found out was because of a teacher's guilty conscience. (archive.fo)

I may check that book out. I really have no idea why I have such an interest in the topic since I don't have any kids and all.

It's genetically instinctual -- a survival mechanism to maintain humanity's existence.

It's an instant response mechanism from adults to want to protect kids because kids are the gateway to the next generation. If you recognize that a child is in danger (due to innocence and the future they hold), an adult will instinctively want to protect the child until they can protect themselves, even if it isn't their kid.

Plus, you were a vulnerable kid yourself, so your pattern recognition has already been established for potential harms/threats, just as you noted.

If a child has their survival instincts inhibited and their pattern recognition for danger thwarted by groomers, then your own paternal nature kicks in (even if you don't have kids or maybe, consciously don't want them). Biologically you have an innate drive to want to protect the next generation for whom you see as being threatened by predators (we see it happen in the animal kingdom all the time).

It's how humanity has persisted so long, even in the face of evil's overwhelming odds to destroy it.

Yeah I think the "vulnerable kid yourself" part in particular. I was very much that around these same ages. Then on top of that I've always been really good with kids in the 10-15 age group and there's a ton of those in my extended family right now. So I think that's part of it, if one of them gets sucked in by a tranny groomer, I would be pissed.
