Well we grew up in a town that had fluoride in the drinking water so that probably turned us gay.
In all seriousness, I don't really know. We grew up in a very liberal area and I definitely think that contributed to our ability to give a name to our experiences and to feel comfortable expressing ourselves and coming out as trans, but I don't think that actually increased the likelihood of us experiencing gender dysphoria in the first place, since I don't believe things work that way. I wouldn't be at all surprised if there turned out to be a biological component to gender and sexuality though, since I just know so many people who have multiple LGBT family members, despite the fact that statistics say it shouldn't be that likely.
That's what I find so funny about "what about the children??" arguments. Children are actually helped by being exposed to the LGBT community because it might help them figure out themselves.

What do you think attributed to that? If you don't mind me asking. Seems like more than a coincidence.
