https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/10/14/report-transgender-identification-in-free-fall-among-young-americans/

This article is about a study done about how young people identify sexually and looks beyond just trans identifiers, although the shift in that category is dramatic.



What is most interesting about it is that there is not a clear link between the decline in trans-identification and other issues, outside of an increase in mental health. There is a lot to unpack in the study but it looks like overall people are coming to their senses and the trans fad could be slipping away.

Teenagers changing their mind? Who would have thought? Hope we didn't do anything permanent to them.

Unfortunately, some of them lost some things that won't grow back.

Need to go after some of the doctors and "educators" that pushed this. Is there such a thing as abolishing a civilian's pension.

TPUSA and other conservative movements aimed at the young are having an impact. Good to see that the younger college kids are the first to reflect a return to sanity...also note that the Wuhan Flu cohort was really screwed up...


5/ Is it improved mental health? Yes, in part. Less anxious and, especially, depressed, students is linked with a smaller share identifying as trans, queer or bisexual.

It just goes to show you that the myriad of deviant behavioral categories are not the intrinsic characteristics that the alphabet mafia wants you to believe. There is much more "choosing" and a lot less "born that way" participation than they would like us to believe.

If it IS more of a choice, then they can suffer the consequences of that choice, and their position becomes much less sympathetic. That's what they don't really want. Lifestyles can be easily rejected, genetics less so.
The best way to keep evil men from wielding great power is to not create great power in the first place.

They can't come out anymore because of Trump.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Tons of teenagers can be confused sexually because they don't even know what it means and this bull**** confused them even more. Thankfully, it's gay kids are realizing that they're gay, not trans.

They will attack the source, Centre for Heterodox Social Science, because they do not have valid arguments against the data.

The party of "trust the science" never trusts science that does not align with their views.

It was always a social contagion.

Self identifying as a member of the alphabet soup crowd was a way for the misfits to suddenly become accepted, popular, part of a group, and fully protected from bullying.

It really was no different than the 90s trench coats and goths.

Subtract a few years and look at the ages of the peak identifiers during the Covid isolations.

I haven't had a chance to look at the data behind this plot so I don't know if those are college or high school terms.

But I think it's interesting that it peaked for the group that came straight away out of Covid isolations. I think there's an interesting correlation, especially if this is college where these kids spent half of their formative and awkward puberty term socially isolated and unable to interact with other pubescent kids and work through that awkwardness.

Correct. It's not even debatable.

There have always been kids who were weird and didn't fit in. Every generation finds a way to cope and create their own anti-establishment clique. Up until now, that didn't usually include permanent life choices.

Trump pulled fluoride out of the water supply after he get elected so things are getting back to normal now.

But being trans is a totally natural occurrence. Perhaps we can blame Trump for causing global warming that's leading to this?

Well one big difference is the 90's misfit could just ditch the eye liner and trenchcoat and pretend it never happened.

Funny how all three lines started a downward trend in mid 2023. Just about he time the presidential campaign started in earnest and Republicans started calling out the insanity. Democrats encouraged and enabled the trans movement lock, stock, and barrel, and in doing so destroyed the lives of a lot of confused, impressionable kids.

It should hang around their neck like an anchor from now until eternity.

No, better answer is Trump is in office so they are forced back into hiding.

This.

Every generation has its "thing" and it looks like, at least based on data, that this was that generation's "thing."

Now to see what new issue each side finds to use as a political wedge/football now that pretty much everything LGBTQXYZ+~ is as norm as anything else in this country.

It got to the point where so many were trending that way, that the ones that were became no longer "special", and could not command as much attention. And that's what it was all about.

How the boomers ever allowed this to happen is mind blowing

Seeing as how they birthed the generation that birthed the kids in this generation of "I wanna be trans too," it's not surprising when you follow the link.

True. But the big difference was there was never a societal pressure applied to be a stoner, hippie, goth, skater, granola, etc. There was a never a movement targeting young people. And we didn't hold up the misfits of the past as being righteous and courageous for being misfits.

Incorrect attempt at taking a shot at boomers.

Most of the trans kids have Gen X parents.

Jury is out on that one. I'll need to check with Alex first.
