quick note that this is the exact same argument people use to poo poo on and discount the experiences of trans youth

it's a legit argument for someone who is still probably learning how not to poo poo themselves and has parents that see them as an extension of their own identity

When is this going to reach the tipping point and lead to a real backlash against Gay and Lesbian rights?

I don't see that happening. Transgender acceptance will continue to improve and with it, hopefully, the medical and mental health resources available to them. Eventually, a transgender friend or co-worker will be the same as a gay friend or co-worker or a straight friend or co-worker to the normal, well-balanced population. The gender hipsters will move on to something new once they realize throwing their pronouns at someone just gets a bored "oh, yeah?" response. People will wonder if the new hipster crazy will lead to a backlash against transgender people, but it won't, because it's generally harder for social acceptance to move backwards than forwards unless we go full on fascist in which case all bets are off.

he demanded my wife ban me from posting on her facebook wall in order to create a safespace for him

it triggered him when we said syrian refugees should be subject to the same background checks as other immigrants

He sounds like the sort of person you keep in touch with just to watch slowly self destruct.
