Today's gender issues are going beyond that and I don't understand this part of it all. Even people wanting to be called they/them and not identifying as any gender. I just can't get it.
Sexual perversions were never promoted so openly, let alone endorsed by schools to emotionally vulnerable children. That alone is a big difference
They aren't perversions.
They aren't "promoted."
Nothing is being "endorsed" by schools.
Sexualy diversity has ALWAYS existed. We just aren't lying about it anymore.
Difference of opinion, completely. In fact I disagree with every word you’ve written
So, this isn't an opinion. You are literally disagreeing with facts. You apparently are just way out there with some belief system. There have always been gay, non binary, transexual, and bisexual people. There are even gay animals. Nobody is selling it or creating it. You can say you don't like it, I guess, but you can't say it doesn't exist. The world has just come to meet it where it is. I had a male teacher in the sixth grade who was fired after someone tried to blackmail him with pictures of him at a gay bar. 1969.
Gay male first grade teacher in 1983. His being gay was never to be mentioned, his living arrangements never to be discussed. Every now and again, a parent complains that the man, as he's " effeminate" shouldn't be teaching students. Teacher is advised to never say anything, deny it, and he keeps his job.
Here we are, 2022, and the whole class has a party for their 8th grade lesbian social studies teacher who is having a baby with her wife. Moms of students organize this, food, decorations, etc. Two transexual teachers in our high school, a gay superintendent before this one, openly gay BOE members, elected officials in our legislature, and Rachel Levine and Pete Buttigieg in federal cabinet positions.
So, you are pretty sure everyone is being indoctrinated? Really?

Today's gender issues are going beyond that and I don't understand this part of it all. Even people wanting to be called they/them and not identifying as any gender. I just can't get it.

Correct. OP asked what is different in the years since the 50 + crowd has matured. This is it, in a nutshell.

But, they shouldn't be unsettled. This boomer group led the way for social changes. Why stop now?

Yes, I do, but I don't wonder why it's happening. I think I know why, and so do most of us in the 50+ category, who came of age in the relatively normal 70s - 80s - early 90s, if we really dig deep enough.
Because Big Pharma needs to hook some patients for life?
Definitely part of it
