Cultural marxism is cancer :) great article. If only more people who stop virtue signaling what they think are good causes because there is something off with all of this;

"The greatest tyrannies are always perpetrated in the name of the noblest causes." - Thomas Paine

I'm a woman, straight, non-trans (honestly the fact they make words like "cis" and "heteronormative" tells more about their hatred) and I've seen this stuff start 15 years ago on social media, but I know it began way earlier in that.
Women, gender, social justice studies have been going on for decades.
The Frankfurt school is what infiltrated and hijacked the western education system. This is where all the SJW, marxism, socialism, communism, gender/identity politics comes from. Also from the regressives, who exploit minorities to further their social reform agendas.
They have exploited blacks, hispanics/latinos, gays too the limit.
Notice the timing - as soon as gays got the right to marry did only then the "trans-mania" blow up and engulf the mainstream media and news.
If it wasn't for people like Milo Yiannpoloulos and trans Blaire White, I would be confused and in a state of panic, as the users of the website Tumblr that where the SJWs all hang out with "transtrenders" who are not trans, they are the ones creating the pseudoscience behind the so-called "76000+ genders and sexualities".....there are people identifying as cats and dogs, as in seriously, and one guy with a family in his last years is now identifying as a 6 year old girl. He left his family and got adopted by a couple - who engage in BSDM with him, so I can't buy into this gender fluid stuff, it has no logic or science backing it.
A quick visit to tumblr will show you that the collective transtrenders, feminists and SJWs are extremely anti-white, anti-cis, anti-heterosexuals and what they term "heteronormative and cisnormative" (like is that supposed to make them a bad thing??) and their main goals in their mission statement is to destroy gender roles and stereotypes (again why are they a bad thing? the majority has no problem with these things) and they want to eliminate heterosexuality - yes they admit to that and to break up the traditional family unit. Well they've pretty much done that to the latter. Smells like an agenda? Correct. As I mentioned there is no science supporting this.
These people don't want to have a discussion. They think the idea of a discussion is "hatespeech". They expect to play victim and demand what they want be handed to them like an entitled selfish tantrum toddler crybully.
Now, after looking at Narcissism being dominant in our culture, and pretentious hive-mind sheeple, it doesn't look like we will get a fact supported answer. Just sketchy claims, demands, tantrums, pseudoscience and double standards.
Not long ago I came upon this article by a former trans; Walt Heyer
http://thefederalist.com/2016/02/16/have-we-finally-reached-peak-transgender/
That EXPLAINS A LOT!
Personally, with how Justin Trudeau and his administration and Obama's administration which has 250 members who are LGBT, so there is something that feels like "social engineering" is happening.
My schools in my country are now teaching "gender theory" to 5 year olds. 5 year olds. Who haven't experienced life much, who's brains are still developing, who are vulnerable and absorb everything like a sponge.
If they claim that there gender fluid theory is correct and we're wrong, why so much propaganda and indoctrination? because that is what it is.
Several gays I brought this question to agreed that it is child abuse and brainwashing at such a young age. They said they need to experience puberty and find out if there is something "that feels different" and then they can make a mature and informed decision, but being exposed at a young age to this is what one of them referred to as "child grooming".

Like you and many others have said who are not buying into this onslaught, this is going to far. Targeting young children is crossing a line. It shouldn't even be a question, Hitler even knew that controlling the minds of the youth controls the future. There sure is an agenda and it smells like "social engineering" and forced cultural marxism.
