to accommodate something that 0.6% of the population has.
And this is unlike say someone in a wheelchair who literally has their functionality severely curtailed if we don't assist them
If instead such people can be helped to live lives that are close to normal in level of functionality, that seems worthwhile.
in ways that don't, I might add, seek to transform the basic structure of society.
One thing I think often makes conservatives into liberals is to study cultural anthropology, and realize that cultures with very very different basic structures can and do thrive regardless of structure. There is no reason to worry about changing basic structures of society. Social change continually happens and it doesn't result in the apocalypse. Human cultures through history have had 2-5 genders and thrived perfectly well.
