We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

      Statistically its a microscopic portion a fraction of 1% who regret transitioning which tends to suggest social contagion isn’t a thing either.

        I tried searching for scientific articles but didn’t find a source on this 1%. Could you share a scientific source on this?

        I don’t see how they are causally correlated. I just say from personal experience… that if I wasn’t exposed since my pre-teen years to LGBT I would likely never think transitioning was a thing and as such would not have pursued that. Today I see it was just a waste of time and money trying to transition.
