You should listen to the segment - the two kids they discuss are so clearly identifying with just one gender, and one set of parents 'allows' their biologically male child to enter kindergarten as a girl. That's a BOLD move! So, you know, what happens when my kids are older - whatever. I'm not invested in that. But the decision to start buying my 4-year-old boy dresses - god, that is terrifying, and it's that early investment and commitment before the child can really rationally engage that's so scary.
