(14,194 posts)I remember the 70's even though the standing joke is most don't remember that period--drugs, sex, booze, disco, etc. Sexual experimentation had many claiming gender and sexual activity as fluid. Ditto for the roaring 20s. So does this trend spike every 50 years?
of course, there is no trend for people who are gay or lesbian. They remain constant whether open in society or closeted. Ditto for the rare condition of being inter-sexed or with some feeling they were born the wrong sex and struggle to cope.
I have a nephew and niece who are Gen Z. They are well acquainted with many who are gender fluid or transitioning, including my niece. Soon I will have two nephews--a surprise because she never hinted she felt male. She is 17 and one of several friends transitioning together. We are surprised and concerned, yet supportive. It is 'their' choice.
