Why? Because of the far right propaganda machine of distract from the real issues by focussing on minorities- immigrants and trans people. Many countries only allow children to take hormones after every other option has been exhausted. This is the way forward.

Trans people exist in every country in the world. Mist progressive countries accept this and do not discriminate against them Like the USA does openly under Trump. This is not an issue in many western and Northern European countries where self ID exists. This is a USA and U.K. problem.
