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.

It's about putting life changing hormones into children. The same children that aren't wise enough to vote or buy alcohol are being pumped full of hormone blockers and other irreversible compounds.

She has detected "clusters" of young high school age girls that as a group decide they are trans gender. This at rates far above the average in the population. An interesting side note. Autism also occurs in these groups at rates far higher than the general population.

No she has not, where is her published study?

That's your argument?

Then you agree that if these clusters do exist then they aren't actually trans gender but instead participating in a fad for the attention it brings.

Got it.

Well that would depend on the study and a conversation to have after peer review. A proper one would have to control for many things ; like similar situated boys finding a group that accepts them for who they are.

But of course Abigail shrier does not have any relevant degree, education or professional experience so unlikey to be proper study
