Here’s an interesting—and encouraging—trend in public opinion: In 2017, according to the Pew Center, 53 percent of Americans said that a person’s gender is determined by their sex at birth—that is, women start out as girls, and men start out as boys. By 2021, the percentage of sex realists had risen slightly to 56 percent. The following year, it rose four points more. Today, the percentage stands at 65 percent.

In fact, Breitbart News has been covering the decline of public support for transgenderism for some time now–the decline is so stark that even the establishment is now conceding the obvious.
To put this another way, all the transgender activism of the last decade or so has caused a backlash. The watershed moment came in 2019, when Lia Thomas, born male, started competing in women’s swimming events, defeating real females. One of those females (a real woman) is Riley Gaines, who was deprived of a trophy by Thomas, a result accepted by weirdly woke sports officials.
As every Breitbart News reader knows, Gaines has since led a crusade for the legitimate rights of girls and women. The honor roll of heroines also includes investigative authors Abigail Shrier and Jennifer Bilek and, perhaps most remarkably of all, author J.K. Rowling....

I had no idea it was that low almost ten years ago. It seems things really went off the deep end on the whole gender identity thing in the last three years.
Wait, now that I think of it, the Karens in my office were complaining back in 2017 about how on their trip down South there were no gender neutral restrooms and how women were giving tranny men who entered the women’s room the evil eye. I wonder what she thinks now, now that her daughter would be old enough to be in high school sports. She works somewhere else now, so I can’t ask.
