I'd say that it goes deeper than that. The trans agenda and ideology is built on the falsehood that I can I can understand "My Truth" better than everyone else around me and those who came before me. It's the true elevation of the idol of self. The concept of Botloh Da'atoi Etezel Kol Adam is the response to this. Even for those who truly have these feelings (In many cases nowadays it certainly seems to be more social contagion than legitimate mental illness, especially amongst teenage girls) that just means they have an unfortunate mental condition. The whole concept of affirmation is the antithesis of how illness is treated. We don't treat multiple personality disorder by inviting all the selfs to a Shidduch Roundtable. The institution these people are fighting against is not lack of compassion, caring, and love, but rather against truth and reality. The claim that a man knows the inner self of being a woman to the point of realizing that he really is one is quite preposterous. The question is how to deal with this in everyday life, and that depends on many realities and variables. However, the overall Hashkafa of what's going on here I think is pretty clear.
