"Grown adults" raises an interesting question: given what we know about the psychology and mental & emotional stability of the younger crowd, will we need to reconsider what constitutes a grown adult? Is it more than physical maturity? If mental maturity is deficient, what then?

Historically, then you dig ditches. Today, society is directed to lean down to the lowest common denominator. Mental maturity does not happen in zero gravity, it requires heavy lifting and friction to be achieved. The lack of those elements has created a micro generation of "theybies" who are going to continue to push and push until something pushes back and makes them either evaluate their garbage ideas, or crumble. Right now the "adults in the room" are tripping all over themselves to get out of the way.

A grown infant is someone without responsibility for their actions. On a different note, women had been told they reach maturity before men do forever, but men gets there too, albeit a bit later, there doesn't seem to be a first prise, perhaps in academics? Point is we deny that many men and women (and how about Trans people?) Grow up and adopt no responsibility, others are even to partake in my self image let alone the my entire future and paygrade. Rights only are irresponsible and they will rip families with providing fathers and mothers out of their employment to perpetuate their fear campaigns that started out as awareness and then progressed to sympathy campaigns

Good point about "cis" -- it's a slur invoked by those who use labels to bully and put real-word pressure on the innocent.

I thought perhaps they should have a taste of their own medicine: Perhaps we need a label to brand those who use this abhorrent practice.

Best I've got so far: we could call them "cissies".

It is time that free thinking compassionate people lend their weight against rigid gender ideology foisted on us by the trans community. Certainly we should deny biological men access to women’s private spaces and the right to espouse dangerous surgical or hormone procedures to impressionable teens

Tiktok just banned gender critical/anti-trans accounts from the platform.
