A new study suggests the United States may have passed peak transgenderism, as the percentage of college students identifying as “transgender” or “nonbinary” has fallen significantly over the past three years.
Nonbinary Revision
“Trans, queer and bisexual identities are in rapid decline among young educated Americans,” declared the October 10 study from the University of Buckingham’s Centre for Heterodox Social Science.
Authored by Canadian professor of politics Eric Kaufmann, the report analyzed the trends across several annual surveys of college students’ gender and sexual identities. Among the entities conducting the polls were the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), which surveys undergraduate students at leading research universities; the Higher Education Research Institute (HERI), which surveys freshmen at various higher-education institutions; and Andover Phillips Academy and Brown University, elite schools that poll their student bodies annually.
Kaufmann found that the number of students identifying as transgender or nonbinary — he told CBN News the identities “are so similar that differentiating between the two is like ‘splitting hairs’” — started rising in 2010.
However, he wrote, “the share of young people not identifying as male or female (typically ticking the non-binary or questioning options) has declined substantially since its 2022-23 peak.” The FIRE surveys indicate that the number of nonbinary students has fallen by almost half, from 6.8 percent in 2023 to 3.6 percent in 2025. Brown University’s results were similar, while Andover reported an even more-precipitous drop. Curiously, the HERI data “exhibit stability throughout the period.”
Kaufmann surmised, therefore, that “the ‘rise and fall’ pattern is more of an elite phenomenon.” In other words, the students most exercised over their own “privilege” are also the ones who, thanks to said privilege, have the luxury of experimenting with different identities.

Mommy Dress Up is over!
What is obvious is this: if this BS was real it would not rise and fall like a freekin fad. The result has been countless teenage girls have had to endure creeps in their private spaces and mutilated children.
“Mommy Dress Up is over” might be finished (thank God) but children sexually mutilated by the modern version of Joseph Mengele at Auschwitz will never be able to totally undo the damage done to them.
Weird sexual fetishes in college have been a thing for a long time. 10 or 20 years ago, it was “LUGs” — “Lesbians Until Graduation.” Especially at “elite” women’s colleges.
Any of our FRiends with lawyer children should advise them to study trannyism. I imagine they will make out like bandits in the coming years.
If you're white you're automatically bad for being white, privileged, racist, blah blah blah.
If you say you're trans all that badness goes away and you're now magically a part of the special group that get accolades and praise -- you're so brave, empowered, anti the system, etc.
Hell of a price to pay to be fashionable. Lol!!!
The bloom is off the pose.
“When will my pee pee grow back?”
Many that were straight said they were transgender due to it being politically correct and cool. They were always straight. With the accent of much transgendered violence and murder and mass murder it is no longer cool. They did not change but what was cool before is no longer cool. They were straight from the beginning and just wanted to act cool.
A true transgendered is not a political statement but a mental problem.
