A new study out of the Netherlands, which surveyed children over a 15-year period, showed that the vast majority of children confused about their genders grow out of the feelings by adulthood.
“This study provides even more reason to be skeptical towards aggressive steps to facilitate gender transition in childhood and adolescence,” said Patrick Brown of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, speaking to the Daily Mail.
During the study, a group of 2772 minors, split roughly evenly between males and females, were given a survey asking whether they felt discontent with their gender.
When children were first asked about their genders, at age 11, results showed that 11 percent of respondents were somewhat discontent with their genders.
Over the course of the study, however, that number diminished drastically.
By the time respondents were 25, only four percent reported being discontent with their genders.
The results, published in February, showed that, while 19 percent of respondents became more content with their genders over time, only roughly two percent became more discontent.
Results also showed that gender discontentment was much higher in girls than boys at age 13 and 16, during puberty and teenage years.
“As anyone who has ever been a teenager knows, puberty and its aftereffects can be a confusing time of hormonal surges, physical changes, and social insecurity,” said Browne speaking to the Daily Mail.
For many, like Browne, the study provides yet more reason to believe that the vast majority of children will simply outgrow their gender dysphoric feelings.
Despite the evidence provided in this and similar studies, the United States has placed no national limits on transgender procedures for minors.
In many states throughout the country, young children can receive permanent, irreversible treatments such as puberty blockers, which have been shown to damage bone development and reproductive health.
Transgender activists often claim that if young children discontent with their genders are not given irreversible and harmful treatments and surgeries, they will be miserable and suicidal.
The new study, however, suggests that the vast majority of minors who experience gender dysphoria at some point will simply grow out of the feeling.

Other studies show that many of the transgender surgeries pushed by activists actually increase suicide rates.
Although Democrat-controlled states, such as Maine, have pushed forward with transgender activism, seeking extremely permissive laws regarding transgender procedures for minors, red states have begun to push against the trans agenda.

What else would you expect from a legislature that legalized full term abortions? No one seems to ask these ruling class freaks what their end game is which is obviously the destruction of the traditional nuclear family.
That this is headline news shows where we’re at. Of course they grow out of it!
We had this data previously. The doctors and therapists knew of it. Charges should be brought against the perpetrators of the affirmation crimes.
It makes sense that some kids during puberty would question their gender as most are uncomfortable in their bodies at one time or another during adolescence. The law they want is to protect themselves from being sued for misdiagnosing and causing irreparable damage to the children.
Lobotomies were once hailed as a breakthrough. The guy who invented the procedure was even given the Nobel Prize, I wonder how all these woke gaslighted liberals will explain their propagating this gender insanity?
Most everyone who has gone through adolescence knows that it’s a difficult, tumultuous time that is successfully weathered by most people. Peer pressure, social and religious guidelines help to lead children through it all. That’s all out the window now and without positive roles to encourage/discourage behaviors and choices recent polls show youth are increasingly identifying as LGBTQ. It’s not by accident – the indoctrination of children is intentional.
Maybe zero population growth is the reason, maybe having as many voters off balance and feeling in need of government protection is the root cause. maybe it’s simply dividing Americans to conquer us. It’s diabolical for American Marxists to exploit children when they are at the most susceptible stage of life.
Parents are home schooling or enrolling their kids in private schools, but not in as great numbers as one would expect.
Doing this to a child is evil and should be criminal. Where the hell are we going?
Schools are now the hot spots for groomers and liberal infested school boards are passing rules that support that and the marxist regime of Mills and company is all in on pushing any and everything deviant and satanic! Until we have legislators that truly care about the welfare and well being of the next generation, this disgusting un-American destroying of the children will continue!!
