America Has More Transgender Youth Than Ever, Study Says

Nearly half of the 1.6 million Americans who identify as transgender are teenagers or young adults, and some of the highest rates of youth transgenderism occur in blue states, according to a new study.

The study, conducted by the University of California Los Angeles Williams Institute, found that transgenderism rates varied between states, with New York seeing a 3% rate among youth compared to roughly 0.6% in Wyoming.

The percent of youth who identify as transgender had doubled since its last estimate, while transgenderism in adults had remained stable. Nearly a fifth of the total transgender population is aged 13-17, according to the study.

The states with the highest proportions of transgender youth were Democrat-led and generally more permissive of classroom instruction on gender identity and sexual orientation, such as New York, where state education guidance includes instructions on teaching about sexuality and gender identity. New York has nearly double the national rate of youth transgenderism, according to the study.

In Maryland, where Education Department officials included gender identity in state sex ed standards, 2.08% of youths identified as transgender, compared to the 1.43% national average. However, not all teachers necessarily include gender identity in their lessons, one of the standard writers told The Washington Post.

Because it's flava-o-da-month to "identify" as trans right now.

[Idiot]

We have quite the mental health issue here.

Latest causes célèbres on the Left.  High gas prices have taken some of the shine off the Global Climate Change nonsense.

That's exactly what it is....

How many of those yutes have been groomed by mentally ill parents or pervert teachers to think they they are transgender, and how many pretend to be transgender because it gets them special attention and treatment. Of course there are also those that pretend to be transgender so they can use the girls bathroom and sexually assault real girls.

You get MORE of what you support.

Too bad no one is supporting intact hetero God-fearing families...

"All the cool kids are doing it."

Never has deviancy been so strongly promoted, at the schools, the library, and all over media.
To top it off, it is a 'protected class' that offers all sorts of opportunities for exploitation for those who have neither pride nor shame.

My hackles went up at Mrs. Doubtfire...

We don't need a study to know the answer: nearly all of them.

A conservative student at an "elite" university has posted a thread about his observations, on completing his first year.
One that jumped out at me was this:

Daniel Schmidt
@RealDSchmidt
1.) A staggeringly high number of them are LGBT+. I’m talking 20% to 30%.
Don’t believe me? At Yale, 23% of freshmen identify as LGBT+.

I have no reason to believe it’s any different at other elite universities. So why are so many “high-performing” students LGBT+?

Nationally, only around 7% of adults are LGBT+.  ...

He cites an article from something called gaystarnews that says more Yale incoming freshmen identify as LGBTQRTJU#$%*($%UVA than conservative. Read the whole thread here:

When one awakes to the notion that there are forces proactively working to destroy this nation, it is not a mystery as to why all this nonsense is taking place.  Encouraging people to be transgender is one way to make everyone going down that path to be sterile.  A nation that does not replenish its population with another generation is in serious trouble.  This is true for both Russia and China.

All the actions of the current administration scream a communist effort to destroy this nation.  The CCP owns Biden and his whole criminal family enterprise.  There are no mysteries here!

We have quite the mental health issue here.

It's not a mental health issue, it's a social health issue.

These people are recruiting. They are grooming.

As Tom Lehrer once sang about dope peddlers:

He gives the kids free samples
Because he knows full well
That today's young innocent faces
Will be tomorrow's clientele

And the same thing's going on here.

Are conservatives still accepted at Yale?
Do conservatives really want to go skinny dipping in that cesspit to get a "prestigious" degree from an institution that is daily marginalizing itself?
