I bet it isn’t that high, but still less than 1%.

Yes in less than 40 years gays are EVERYWHERE, pregnant girls are EVERYWHERE in high schools, transgender people have grown to such a huge portion of the population they NOW NEED their own bathrooms what has REALLY changed over this time is our education system and parents NOT being involved letting their DAMNED kids be indoctrinated!!!

150,00 American teenagers, huh. I bet it’s 150,000 teenage boys who would say they’re trannies just to have access to the teenage girls locker room.

Boys will be boys.

How could society change that much in less than 40 years?


Leftist perversion and subversion.

I formatted the sentence in bold since it is bold-faced lie.

Not necessarily a lie.If you think about it it's easy to believe that one kid in 137 in that age group hates his/her life.Ask a boy like that if he thinks he's a girl and he might say yes.Ditto asking a girl if she thinks she's a boy.But remember,that same kid is just as likely to tell you that he/she is the King/Queen of Spain.

It's called garden variety mental illness.

In an unrelated survey, 165 teenagers out of 165 said, hey, look at me, I want to be special.

I was visiting my mom today and we were looking at her high school yearbooks ( (1937-1940). What a wonderful, clean cut, wholesome, all around nice group of kids. Not a one of them looked in the slightest weird, strange, kooky, or less than wholesome. Girls in neat and pretty dresses and boys dressed neatly in suits or nice shirts, pressed trousers and letter sweaters etc. And I bet you could look at yearbooks from anywhere in the country at that time and the kids would look the same. And I know their outsides matched their characters for the most part. (Yes we are all sinners but then- it was a thing to hide and be ashamed of instead of flaunting. )

How far we have fallen. I wondered when looking if we could ever get our country back like that.

Remember way back to Mitch Snyder, the homeless advocate who claimed there were (not sure on the number here) 20M homeless. When asked about this figure he said, in effe.ct, that he/they pulled it out of their ass.

Lies...always lies when they start spouting figures. Lies! SSZ

I’d guess that unless prompted by hyper-liberal parents, there are more kids who identify as kitties, puppies, transformers, and trucks than there are who identify as the wrong sex.

Kids aren’t stupid. They can look down and see whether they are boys or girls. Some just want attention, and some are psychologically abused by parents who want attention, but otherwise they’d rather be themselves or a pet.

Nearly 150,000 American teenagers from 13 to 17 years old — or one out of every 137 — would identify as transgender if survey takers asked, according to an analysis of state and federal data that offers an answer to a question that has long eluded researchers.


We want to develop our own facts using our own distortions to create "facts"

1 in 137? R-I-G-H-T.

Oh, the fun I could have had if this bullshit were around 25+yrs ago. We already had our lesbian midget Eskimo albino club (very popular in our hill-billy neck of the woods).

Because often teenagers are borderlines and borderlines want attention! They do anything that gets them attention.

They cut, they act out, they do drama, they run away, they threaten suicide, they ....

Most grow out of it, but not all.

Most trans girls have autism traits or are on the spectrum.

Come on! Obama is gone. You do not have to listen to this crap anymore. Transgender is one of the things he and the news media pushed. It is not as pervasive as they would have you to think. When I was younger, there was none of this. There was a case on the left coast of a Christine Jorgenson who was transgender and it made the national news. Now the homosexuals would have you believe that it has become commonplace. It has not! All the news coverage given to it is just for shock valve and to sell news organizations.

It has changed, but not that much. The same idiots that fall for any evil have just fallen for this one. Sixty years ago they were all racists. Forty years ago they started sleeping around and doing drugs. Twenty years ago they embraced homosexuality. Now they are into mutilating their sex organs or at least cheering other people on who are doing it.

Decent people have never been into any of these things.
