The transgender social contagion among the young may be fizzling out and there are numbers to back it up.
A report released recently concluded that the number of young Americans identifying as trans or nonbinary has dipped in the last few years. This represents a major reversal, given that transgenderism had been an exploding social phenomenon among young Americans since 2020.
The report by social science professor Eric Kaufmann, titled “The Decline of Trans and Queer Identity among Young Americans,” shows that across three separate surveys, the number of young Americans who identify as nonbinary or transgender has dropped since its peak in 2023.
The study found that since 2023, the “transgender share” of university students in America has halved and went from 7% to 4% of the population. It also found that students who identified as “not heterosexual” dropped by “10 points” in that period.
The numbers were produced by surveys conducted by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, the Higher Education Research Institute, and the Andover Phillips Academy.
Most people who identify as trans or nonbinary are teenagers or young adults. A 2022 study by the University of California, Los Angeles, Williams Institute found that almost one-fifth of those who identified as trans were between 13 and 17 years old. It couldn’t be clearer that young people were far more susceptible to this obvious social contagion than anyone else.
