A new study is vindicating the ‘detransitioning’ movement, showing that gender dysphoria naturally wanes between adolescence and adulthood.
A study conducted in the Netherlands tracked 2,700 children over the span of 15 years, finding that 11 percent of kids had symptoms of gender dysphoria, meaning that they believed their gender was different than their birth sex. By the age of 26, that number dropped to only 4 percent. Researchers stated this is because “gender non-contentedness, while being relatively common during early adolescence, in general decreases with age.”
Detransitioners believe that the study underscores their point that children should not be indoctrinated into transgender ideology that can result in children being chemically castrated with puberty blockers and then mangled beyond repair before they are even legal adults.
“These revelations are hugely vindicating,” 19-year-old detransition activist Chloe Cole said to The New York Post. “It’s frustrating that it has taken this long, but I’m thankful that this is finally becoming a mainstream conversation, and people are finally starting to wake up to what we are doing to children.”
