Thanks for putting that into words. It felt like I was being told “um, actually, have you considered that disliking Barbie isn’t tied to being a boy?” (with an undercurrent of “this reason for thinking you might be trans is invalid”.)
I strongly suspect that wasn’t the intent of the commenter, they were trying to encourage inclusivity. It just fell flat.
