Fr even Nevada explored the idea in the second part. I won’t spoil exactly how it goes down but the book even acknowledges that the “dangers” of pushing the idea someone might be trans are overblown. It’s not like there’s a point of no return, you don’t have to commit to keep taking HRT, detransitioning is always an option (even though a vast majority of detransitioners do so for reasons OTHER THAN A FALSE DIAGNOSIS).
There’s nowhere near this amount of pushback for other queer identities. It’s mainstream for “maybe you’re gay/bi/lesbian” to be a punchline. If one were to make the same joke but with transness it would not fly even with supposed allies. It’s so goddamn stupid.
