Roughly 1.6 percent of American adults are now transgender or nonbinary, according to a 2022 survey.

That number is higher still among young adults, with 5 percent of people under 30 now identifying their gender as different from the one assigned them at birth.

The Hill

So is this a choice or are they "born that way"? If you claim they are born that way - there needs to be an explanation on the sudden boom. Is it chemicals / plastics in the water/food supply? You just don't have a massive uptick in birth defects without cause. No different that thalidomide.


Or maybe it's fake? It's a fad that people are claiming for attention?

Imagine the goth attention seeking trend and then imagine a cultural milieu that attaches special statuses and privileges to persons who belong to that trend.

This is the new goth/emo movement.

At least with those, you could just wipe off the makeup and take out the piercings. Now these kids are mutilating themselves forever. Any parent that indulges this behavior is demonic.

I think its a mixture of born that way, and people seeking attention.

The rise I'd say is due to it being more widely accepted now.

Yeah, we never lifted the goth/emo kids up to the highest social status possible. These kids are fricked in the head and all the adults do is praise them for it.

So 1 out every 100 people are transgender?

And 5 out every 100 people under 30 are transgender?

Even in the current state of affairs, I find that extremely hard to believe.

It's one way to get millions of free money in California for reparations.

Social Contagion. The medical industry is raking it in cutting off tits and neutering young boys. So don't expect this to slow down anytime soon. After the gold rush...

I would think a good chunk is people giving troll answers to surveys.

I remember claiming to smoke crack when I was 12 on some drug survey at school.

I think the vast majority is this but much more insidious. Instead of disenchanted youth simply rebelling and forming counter-culture groups as throughout history, it appears to be society's dregs, lowlifes, and pervs who have co-oped the trans movement to condone their behavior, gain status, seek revenge, and make themselves untouchable.

I know two parents who had kids come to them and claim to be transgender. Both same age. 1 was my sons best friend from elementary school (they went to different HS). His parents basically disowned him.
The other is a coworker, he embraced it and calls his daughter his son now. I’m just thankful I never had to deal with this with either of my sons. Both are very masculine and traditional, even a bit old school (yes ma’am no ma’am, hold the door for women, men should protect females, pink is for girls) types

The bullying pendulum swung too far left. Now the bullies are the gender freaks and the Karens and the rainbow brigade
