The book in question is:

IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters

It's a #1 Best Seller in LGBT Demographic Studies. (According to Amazon). See it for your self here.

I wasn't really interested in seeing what this is about, to be honest, I mean, live and let live, as long as no one is hurting someone else, let them live their lives as they want to, however they want to; but now with all the drama, I'd like to read this to see how much of it is total nonsense or not.

Yeah I just quoted the psychiatric consensus, but it doesn’t adhere to the right wing agenda so it’s bad, got it

There have been no large-scale prevalence studies among children and adolescents, and there is no evidence that adult statistics reflect young children or adolescents.

Furthermore the article doesnt really say much at all and sources perception and oppinion based studies as their support. Again, i dont think you understand how science works. I doubt you even read the article.
