The difference is I'd never advocate for "curing" homosexuals because a sexual preference is no big deal, and our society is becoming a lot more accepting.

Gender identity is the same thing but it causes enormous hardship on the person because they don't associate with the gender they are at birth. Being born a man and feeling like a woman because of a genetic defect or birth defect that science can narrow down is a hardship that no one would want on their child. I actually find it bizarre anyone would take the other position.

Unless of course you are going to take the stance that gender and sex are societal constructs that can be fluid. In which case I can't even be bothered to debate that, in the same way I don't take anti vaxxer seriously.
I'm going to go down a different rabbit hole. There are definitely homosexual and gender identity issues. But at what point will there no longer be? Ever?
There is an LGBTQ parade every year and that's great. At what point will there no longer be the need for one? 50 years? 100 years? I thought Women's marches would have stopped by now, but they are getting smaller.
