CDC: Almost Two Percent of Youth Are “Transgender,” 35 Percent of Whom Have Attempted Suicide
The New American ^ | 28 January 2019 | Warren Mass

Posted on 01/28/2019 2:26:52 PM PST by detective

A study released last week by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that just under two percent of high school students said they were “transgender,” meaning their sense of gender identity did not align with their sex at birth The report is the first released by the CDC that asked transgender-related questions among a large number of students, Reuters cited unidentified experts.

Thirty-five percent of the transgender students said they had attempted suicide in the previous year, compared with about seven percent of those who did not see themselves as transgender, the CDC study found. This startling figure should indicate that young people who identify as “transgender” have a much higher rate of psychological disturbance leading to severe depression than those who do not.

Spot on elapse. These poor kids need some good news. Currently the news they are getting about themselves is driving them to kill themselves.

Well, as long as it is 2%! That makes it entirely reasonable to change every bathroom in the nation!

“Proof” that gender dysphoria is “mental illness”. White Christian Conservatives will get blamed though...

After witnessing the brutal attack a tranny did with an AXE on two patrons at a gas station convenience store yesterday (he got pissed at his “tinder” date) I hope these freaks of nature do us all a favor and go find a comfortable tree in the woods and finish it...save a lot of headaches. I realize I should have compassion but no ..its gone for these mutants.

Attempting suicide and actually doing it are two different things. Come on, trannies, you can do it! (Just don’t do it driving a car on a road near me, OK?)

Imagine if you feel exactly as you do today. Like the guy or gal you are. But your body looks like the other gender. Life would be a hell for you. Gender dysphoria, caused probably by toxic something in the womb, is a ghastly birth defect, longer lasting in disfigurement than cleft palate.

It breaks my heart for these kids, once they realize they are different and will never fit in, will never “match” their emotions and thoughts. Our world has become MORE gender extreme, not less. If you go to target and look at the children’s clothing, there is not one item, not even a pair of jeans, for kids that can go on either gender. T shirts are shaped differently. Not one item can be worn by either. My first child was born in the 90s and there were whole catalogs for cotton clothes in all colors that were basically unisex. That is all gone today.

We need nothing but compassion for these poor people. They are told there is “only one treatment: to transition”, but the way science works is that a less than 50% success is no treatment at all. Especially with so many trans people dying of suicide. Clearly it is NOT the way to go. Treatment choice should not be left to pop PC culture!

We need for now to focus on loving these patients and trying to prevent plastics and pesticides in our daughters from before their births. Too much of this is in their amniotic fluid before they even have sex.

Substitute “mentally insane” for “transgender” and you’ve got the truth.

People who hate themselves that much are likely to do that.

These most unfortunate need help, psychological help. Odd is it not, to give them help is political incorrect and unacceptable blasphemy as defined by the left?

The left does not care as these victims are but a tool.

They do not care!!!!!!!!!!!!

It could be worse...an even great percentage of our kids could be desperately delusional and in need of very serious...and expensive...help.

Help from who?

The pycho industry has had a hand in creating this mess.

A few thoughts:
When 35% of a group report suicide attempts (axiomatically unsuccessful or they wouldn’t be reporting), it reveals that the group is either extraordinarily incompetent at suicide, or heavily into pretending/reporting for dramatic effect. My guess is mostly the latter.

That same group, on a self-reporting basis, accounts for the 2% stat for incidence of transgenderism. So in reality, 2% is the percentage of drama queens. Actual transgenders are some subset of that. Since the study defined transgenderism as an arbitrary psychological belief, thus immune to scientific meansurement, the real percentage is unknowable.

I’m sick and tired of this bull ship.

Notice how all this crap went into full swing once the Kenyan took office. Not that it wasn’t there already but it like went on steroids ( wow that’s a weird description considering the topic) after the fruit cup became president in 09.

“When 35% of a group report suicide attempts (axiomatically unsuccessful or they wouldn’t be reporting), it reveals that the group is either extraordinarily incompetent at suicide, or heavily into pretending/reporting for dramatic effect.”

Transgenders commit suicide at a rate far higher than non transgenders. They also unsuccessfully attempt suicide at a rate far higher than non transgenders.

Yep, sad but true.

But, do they hate themselves or their Creator more?

There is no such thing as "looking like the other gender".

Words have gender people have a SEX.

I know you keep pushing this but I am going to keep pushing back.

It is not caused by "something toxic in the womb" it is caused by something toxic in the parents and teachers who are pushing this line of thought on children. And it is evil.

It breaks my heart for these kids, once they realize they are different and will never fit in, will never “match” their emotions and thoughts.

Just what the flipping heck does that word salad even mean? We are all different. And we will never fully fit in what ever group we happen to be in at the time. That is part of being a individual. The idea that we should is ludicrous.

Too much of this is in their amniotic fluid before they even have sex.

Holy cow. There it is. The most ill informed thing I will read today.

We have a SEX from the moment that sperm combines with egg.

They’re not “transgender”. There’s no such thing. They are mentally/emotionally/spiritually suffering and need help.
