large decline in "trans-identiying" students indicates likely end of the fad | Eastern NC Now

Too bad, so sad for those in the medical and psychiatric community who profiteer off the the "transgender" fad, but polls show it has peaked and is in major decline among college students.

Of course, this leads to questions of why it was ever taken seriously in the first place.  Too often, it has been promoted in school systems and certain parts of the medical community, both for ideological and financial reasons. Last year, the British National Health Service changed their policies on dealing with gender confused children to direct medical providers not to even recommend name or pronoun changes and certainly not drugs or surgery because most gender confused children grow out of it naturally.
