@wil_da_beast630 1/ The whole "ROGD isn't real" thing is often the product of equivocation between the observation (a huge increase in natal females declaring trans identities) and the hypothesis (social contagion explains the increase).
@wil_da_beast630 2/ even if social contagion is false (it isn't) the ROGD etiology is a new one.
The traditional presentation, both male/female for youth gender dysphoria is cross-sex preferences expressed throughout childhood. These kids are very obvious and inevitably spotted by peers/parents

@wil_da_beast630 3/ they are inevitably identified as "sissy boys" and "tomboys". They effectively "out" themselves simply by being who they are.
The ROGD cohort does not have this presentation. So, regardless of the explanation it is a new etiology.

@wil_da_beast630 4/ Though in males increased social acceptance x AGP really could be explanatory, as most boys do not share their erotic fixations with their parents if they can help it.
