They didn't spend many words explaining why, but one doctor, Dr Rob ?, sounds like he has a suspicion it's not inborn. Mom Amy sounds like she doesn't buy it wholeheartedly, either.

Little kids have always had strange notions, but in the past parents ignored what they said, and waited for them to ‘grow out of it’. Many did.

I wonder how many of these are due to gay adoptions?

Agreed. Also parents who wanted a girl, but got a boy. So they try to turn the boy into a girl.

The birth control pill in our water supply. Soy in our diets. Plastics for food and water storage.

It’s a parents job to do their bes tto raise normal healthy happy kids. Too many idiotic leftists out there think that they have to give in to their kids every whim. Dang it, if a kid is confused, set them straight! Explain normal, show them normal, live normal! Chances are the kids will outgrow it. Not all the time, but chances are.

When I was a kid I wanted to be a motorcycle — Fortunately, my parents vetoed getting dual exhausts installed on me.

Not to sound too.old fashioned, but, how many of our parents would have pandered to us in 1960, or 1970 , if we announced as 10 year olds that we felt like a boy trapped in a girls body??

Would the American frontier have been settled if pioneers had to.listen to that crap from their kids at that time???

I think there is just a little bit of the phenomenon we used to call,”Keeping up withe Jonses,” keeping up with a fad.

Soy ? The Japanese eat 10 times more soy products than AMericans and do and use just as much ( if not more ) plastic , and there is no “ spike “ here .

What’s behind the spike? It’s not recognizing what that little spike is in the morning when you are a kid.

...." how many of our parents would have pandered to us in 1960, or 1970....

Maybe .00001 % of them in the 1950s when I was was a lad.
maybe .001 % in the '60s
maybe .01 % in the '70s

Isn’t most f the soy fermented? The soy Americans are exposed to is in oil and preservatives, found in almost every processed food product.

In years to come, people will look back and be horrified. These kids are basically pretty normal, but their parents and the doctors are twisting them into abominations and destroying them.

The culture. When girls are not pretty in traditional sense they want to be boys. Seen it up close an personal. There is no room for sturdy girls with nice eyes. No room for lack of perfect.

Look at transgendered girls and women. Not an attractive woman in the bunch.
