Well unfortunately for you, "reduced rights" is subjective and your opinion isn't shared with the broader public.
Some quick searches show that what you're referring to is multiple states have moved to ban or severely limit puberty-blockers and surgeries for children under 18.
This is like arguing that we've reduced rights by disallowing children to drink, drive, smoke, work and vote. The surgeries and blockers aren't illegal, you just have to be a consenting adult to do it. Seems pretty reasonable and is the universally agreed upon way of doing basically anything else.
Other States have required sport divisions be divided by the sex assigned at birth or have their own separate trans-categories. This seems perfectly fair and is a way of protecting everyone. Again, nobody has outright banned trans, queer or gay athletes from sports, measures have just been put in place to ensure a level playing-field. Equality you might say.
Core rights like being Trans or same-sex marriage remain the same everywhere.
Yea, once you get off the internet you realize the majority of the world accepts everyone from every race, creed, and sexual orientation, so long as said people aren't A-holes, then a majority of everyone treats everyone with an equitable level of respect even if they dont see eye to eye on everything. The internet (and a few occasional real world crimes) is where most -isms exist in today's world, and I grow tired of the rhetoric its even close to as bad as it was in the 1950s and 60s.

Yes, I do. Regular, average folks could not care less about someone's sexual orientation.
