Study Shows Most ‘Gender Confused’ Kids Grow Out of It

A new study confirms that the majority of children who are “confused” about their “gender” (i.e., their sex) naturally grow out of it by their mid 20s. Perhaps that is why radical leftists are so bent on doing permanent damage to children’s bodies when they are still young and confused.

The UK Daily Mail reported on April 3:

“Researchers in the Netherlands tracked more than 2,700 children from age 11 to their mid-twenties, asking them every three years of feelings about their gender.

Results showed at the start of the research, around one-in-10 children (11 percent) expressed 'gender non-contentedness' to varying degrees.

But by age 25, just one-in-25 (4 percent) said they 'often' or 'sometimes' were discontent with their gender.

The researchers concluded: 'The results of the current study might help adolescents to realize that it is normal to have some doubts about one’s identity and one’s gender identity during this age period and that this is also relatively common.'”

As Patrick Brown, a fellow at the conservative Ethics and Public Policy Center, noted to the UK outlet, this data provides a strong argument against the damaging transgender treatments and surgeries that are being increasingly pushed on children at ever younger ages.

But there are multiple groups that do not want to stop transitioning children. There are the radical LGBTQ activists who are desperate to reproduce unnaturally, since they cannot do so naturally in their chosen lifestyles, by grooming children. There are the outright pedophiles who groom because they are sexual perverts. In America, there are the Democrats, who have found that single, confused, isolated young people who don’t have families and whose identities rest on their woke ideology are much easier to control. There is Big Pharma, that makes money off years of puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and other pernicious and damaging medications. There is the medical industry in general, which also benefits financially from the many years of medications and chemicals necessary to maintain the fiction that a person can alter his biological sex (the transgender surgery industry alone is projected to reach a $5 billion value by 2030). The Babylon Bee headline below is funny, but it is also disturbingly accurate.

The majority of LGBTQ youth experience hopelessness or sadness, because the lifestyle is unnatural. LGBTQ gear like chest binders and gaffes can have grave side effects, and there are certainly serious side effects from puberty blockers and mutilating surgeries. Detransitioners (transgenders who return to living as their biological sex) face aggressive discrimination and outright hatred from LGBTQ activists, and some become suicidal because their bodies are permanently mutilated. It is disgusting that so many adults in America and elsewhere around the world (though Europe is beginning to wake up) care more about making money or pretending to be compassionate than about actually helping young people.

It is impossible to alter one’s sex, and the idea that there are multiple genders is complete balderdash. Fortunately, most young people will grow out of their gender dysphoria by the time they are adults. Unfortunately, we have multiple institutions, including the current US federal administration, that have a vested interest in castrating and injuring young people before they can discover the truth for themselves.
