Have you considered that due to their education and research those people may know more on the subject than you do?

Regret rates for transition remain notoriously low (within 2%) with main reasons for regret stated to be transitioning too late or environmental lack of acceptance or support.

Besides, despite some orgs claiming there is a "transgender trend", we are just not seeing this in the data.

Rapid-onset gender dysphoria is a well documented phenomenon.

It's hard to impossible to go back. But the suicide rate is high.

Demonstrably false. Transgenderism is a cult ideology intentionally inducing trauma to recreate multiple personality disorder in children. They are easier to abuse, and commit suicide.

In 1979 Johns Hopkins Hospital had banned all sex-change operations permanently at their facilities due to rates of suicide having skyrocketed amongst transgender post reassignment surgery. Suicide is twenty times greater among adults who used cross-sex hormones and underwent gender reassignment surgery.

According to Johns Hopkins Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry Dr. Paul R. McHugh, “Hopkins stopped doing sex-reassignment surgery, producing a ‘satisfied’ but still troubled patient seemed an inadequate reason for amputating normal organs.”

John Hopkins concluded...

Transgenderism is a mental disorder

Sex change is biologically impossible

People who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder

The suicide rate among transgendered people who had the surgery is 20 times higher

*70%-80% of children who expressed transgender feelings, overtime, lost those feelings.

That sounds like appeal to authority, it is classified as a fallacy.
