There’s been a troubling trend in recent years of young people increasingly identifying as transgender. In fact, the transgender phenomenon, which was once mostly associated with men, is now dominated by women. Data suggests that peer influence is playing a role in the surge in transgender identity, and now some transgender advocates are admitting that this is a problem.
While the transgender cult insists that the rapid increase of transgender identification is because of growing social acceptance that encourages transgender people to not keep their identity secret, others point out that the rapid growth and the changing demographics prove that transgender identification is a social contagion, and that is causing young people to identify as transgender when they are not.
“A study published in the scientific journal Plos One surveyed 256 parents whose children experienced rapid onset of gender dysphoria. The vast majority (86.7%) of adolescents either started spending more time online or were in a friend group with at least one other transgender person prior to identifying as transgender, according to the study,” the Daily Caller reported. “The study was meant to explore growing reports from parents of their children suddenly adopting transgender identities after puberty after apparent peer influence. In 36.8% of the friendship groups reported in the study, parent participants said the majority of its members identified as transgender. Parents also reported a decline in their children’s mental health and in parent-child relationships following adoption of transgender identities.”
“I think the people who are on the far right who say it’s all social influence are wrong. But people on the far left who say there can be no social influence are also wrong,” Dr. Erica Anderson, a transgender psychologist who works with transgender children, told the Daily Caller.

Although,you longer have a penis.
I have a longer penis?
Who wouldn’t sign up for this!!??!!??
Of all the Trans I have ever observed around my greater workplace , none have lasted long . They come on like it’s some kind of Halloween freak show, strut their shit , and fairly soon disappear. Who knows where they go , but they demonstrate instability and in consistency . Just putting on an act . That they expect normal people to accept and go along with. It’s kind of disgusting and sad.
You long for penis?
Oops.. auto correct.
Another social problem caused by libtards. They caused all the rest too.
homosexuals do the same thing.
It’s chic...”cool”...to be a freak today.
Celebs lead the way. First it was the carrying of tiny dogs around everywhere then actress’s saying they are bi or lesbian then came celebs adopting black orphan kids from Africa and couples raising their boys to be girls and vice versa....
It depends. The sincere, hardcore trannies -- those that mutilate themselves -- likely have a high suicide rate.
But then there are the ordinary perverts. The men in dresses who still have penises. Those will continue raping women, or sodomizing men, or molesting children, or whatever they were "into" before they claimed to be women.
Here in Los Angeles, I now see a lot of women pushing their dogs in strollers.
It is just like the yo-yo or hula-hoop, only worse.
According to woke ideology, you can qualify as a tranny without surgery. You need only claim to be the opposite sex.
In years past, traditional male role models in text and film were difficult for the average Joe to achieve. Now, with few exceptions, only females are given the roles that are intended to be revered and aspired to. The average Jane, rather than be inspired, is overwhelmed with expectations that are divorced from reality.
To some Janes, the solution is to take the bait that they can pretend to be male, and poof, no more grandiose expectations!
So the dogs are deprived of exercise, and deprived of the canine socialization that comes from peeing on and smelling the usual neighborhood landmarks. Their owners are happy to dispense with that in return for hearing strangers describe how cute the dogs are, caged in a stroller.
What a terrible deal for the dogs!
A major difference between this contagion and many others is the collusion and enthusiastic support of perverted adults including in some cases the mother. and often teachers, principals, pastors etc. It is a real cancer.
I remember back in 1971 watching the David Suskind show on Educational TV. He was interviewing the only transitioned ex males in existence at the time. There were about five of them, and they had to go through hell to get a doctor willing to perform the operation, lots of rigorous screening.
Yes to hear them talk it’s like hearing homeless people talk about what is normal.
I understand xx and xy but WTH is transgender?
In a few years, there’ll be LOTS of “buyer’s remorse” among these...folks.
