You did this in your last post to me, and here you are reinforcing the notion that nothing but bigotry applies when criticism is applied to the trans activist agenda and the pseudoscience of multiple-gender-identity.

Indeed and isn’t there great evidence for a lower sperm count among men these days?
It might be acceptable because they see it as “natural” population control too.
Good link
Endocrine disruptors also attenuate gender differences in brain development. For example, the locus ceruleus is larger in female rats than in males, but treatments with bisphenol-A (BPA) enlarge this region in males.

You're not saying it, you're just implying it through passive means.
It's actually a poor way of debating a topic.
You're giving up on your positions with me, but continuing the debate in a passive way so you don't feel like you have to accept a challenge.
It's fine. I get it. I just don't think it's a legitimate debate tactic.

Wait how is it apples and oranges? They're both looking in the mirror and seeing something that is not reality. Sounds pretty apples to apples to me.
Personally I suspect that you are being wilfully ignorant because ignoring this fact is politically convenient for you if you oppose trans equality.
I think this is a fundamental core of this entire debate that gets forgotten.
What its really about is just treating everyone regardless of what you might think about their gender with respect and dignity with a wee tad of understanding.

For me anyone can be who or what they identify as ,,,,,,however I am
not a mind reader, so chances are I will address them as the wrong
pronoun and get castigated for it!!
Sorry but I am not comfortable with sharing public conveniences with
the opposite sex, what or who ever they believe they are

I think population control is big issue among the bilderberger types but that’s another issue.
As far as chemicals affecting the brains chemistry they most certainly do. They can also alter our DNA.
Trans rights campaigners and their allies have long argued that being transgender is not a lifestyle choice but rather the resolution of a deep-rooted conflict between mind and body.
The new study, led by John Theisen at Augusta University in Georgia, may be the strongest vindication of this argument to date. The scientists sequenced the DNA of 14 female-to-male and 16 male-to-female transgender people and looked for genetic variants that were common in these groups but turned up in fewer than one in 10,000 people in the wider population. They found 30 such variants, nine of which were in genes known to be implicated in the growth of brain cells or the production of sex hormones such as oestrogen and testosterone.
It is the first time researchers have identified a panel of genes, including DNA involved in the development of nerve cells and the manufacture of sex hormones, that could provide a biological basis for gender dysphoria.

If the student was that disruptive in the classroom, while gender tolerance and inclusion policies were being introduced and discussed with the student body, I can only imagine how disruptive and disrespectful this student will be in the hallways to his transgender fellow students.
So because he doesn't believe there are more than 2 genders,
rejected the school policy of inclusion

According to the video I watched, I don't think it would have mattered if he was arguing the earth isn't flat. He was disruptive, insulting to the teacher and disrespectful of the process and the curriculum.
Sometimes you have to be
Individual opinions have merit, for or against
I watched the video, nobody should have others agendas forced on them
If it was about religion and he refused you would all be hailing him a hero

There are ways of expressing your opinions. Disrupting a classroom discussion of school policy by insulting the teacher, the school and the trans students is not an acceptable route.
