Yep. Women's rights are eroding more every day.

What if one declares himself an age-fluid? And says he's only 14 on the inside? And thus it's ok for them to date kids of the same age?

If one can say he feels like a she and therefore needs to be treated like a she .... if somebody feels like he's a 14-year-old - do we need to treat him the same way?

There is some of this already happening. Though how much of it is genuine and how much of it is trolling is hard to say. Poe's law applies.



It also seems to be a phenomena much rarer than regular trans.

So your question is actually not rhetorical as you may have been intending it. Some communities have "transagers" as neighbours and so will need to contend with this issue.

Yup
That's where we are today....
Pretty sad state of affairs, but hey, as long as we are all inclusive, trans age people have rights too...
And now I hear the govt is putting a big push on banning trans fat.
Well that offends me.
As a fat old white guy, who identifies as a skinny young turquoise girl, I have rights too.
Don't trample me cause I'm different

I just can’t get past the irony of a guy wanting to avoid working out around men by going to a gym for females WHO ARE THERE TO AVOID WORKING OUT AROUND MEN.

Ironic that this video is done by a transexual person who is lamenting that transageism is a little too over the top. There doesn't seem to be an objective moral standard in society, it's all morally relative. In this sense the door is open to all this and more. There are a couple middle schools in the valley that have kids who identify as cats. And why not? When everybody has a different line in the sand, there is no line in the sand.

On another note, I imagine there would be less outcry if it were Blaire White in a female only gym. He looks more the part so it's less offensive I suppose.

Yes, and now we have a Castanet story advocating funding for "trans legal professionals" because transgenders people might be discriminated in dealings with the legal system.
The "study"by the Canadian Bar Association and a Toronto AIDS/HIV legal clinic, there must be systemic change in the legal system regarding trans people.
It wants there to be at least 3 hours of trans training in diversity and equity.
And Jordan Peterson thinks he is being picked on by his professional organization! :200:
