Sure, why not?
Yes? 11 is an age where children often are hitting puberty and if someone is trans, that’s when gender dysphoria would become more pronounced.
Well, at what age did you start to believe you were cis?
Bigots are incapable of thinking this way. They only see LGBT+ people as “the other” and themselves as “normal”, so they never realize that they themselves at one point figured out their own identity (including both gender and sexuality). They think it’s only LGBT+ folks having to figure those things out.
It’s bizarre, especially since society does push cisgendered and heterosexual norms at a very early age. Young boys will get asked if they like any girls and they’ll constantly be pushed with gender roles and stereotypes for their birth gender. It’s so normalized that most folks don’t even seem to realize that it happens until confronted with the existence of any alternative (like LGBT+ folks). A reasonable person would examine their biases and realize stuff like “huh, I guess I knew my gender from a young age”, but bigots have this irrational hatred for LGBT+ people so they’re not willing or capable of this kind of insight. Their brain has to twist logic into justifying the bigotry that they’ve already concluded on.

How do you know that to be true?
i guess it must have also been sad when parents allowed kids to identify as sinister. meaning left-handed, of course. one moment, it was rightfully shunned, the next moment sinister people started getting everywhere and it was growing at an alarming rate, threatening to take over society…
…until it hit 12.5%, where it flatlined and stayed ever since. turns out if you don’t bully people into repressing a trait they’re born with, you’ll see a meteoric rise in the amount of people you now accept, when they stop (rightfully) fearing that you’ll repress them. today, it’s beyond trivial that if you think there ever has been a point in history where one eight of all people haven’t been left-handed, you’re just a moron, but your rhetoric would perfectly fit the era when that started to be accepted.
we don’t know exactly how many people are trans, but the sharp rise you see and characterize as “currently relevant in social media” is simply due to society (mostly) letting people finally be who they always have been. realistically, trans people are a minority, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have the same right to be themselves that you and i already enjoy simply for having been born into the majority.
Why don’t you just let people raise their own children, and you can raise yours?
