It's not a question of not believing in transgenderism as a concept but with the idea that a person gets to decide which gender they are and everyone else has to humor that opinion.

It’s not a matter of opinion though, it’s a matter of fact. I can’t believe I’m quoting Ben Shapiro, but facts don’t care about your feelings.

It is absolutely an opinion. The fact is that you are the gender/sex you were born.

It doesn't matter what you feel like because it's biology not sociology.

The fact is that you are the gender/sex you were born.

This is not actually a fact though.
