- Transgender identification among U.S. college students has nearly halved in two years.
- This decline coincides with the first sustained improvement in student mental health in over 15 years.
- A separate trend shows high rates of transgender identification persist among younger teenagers.
- An analyst suggests the campus decline mirrors the fading of a social trend or fashion.
- The medical establishment faces scrutiny for pushing irreversible treatments on minors.
A surprising new trend is emerging on American college campuses as the number of students identifying as transgender or non-binary has plummeted by nearly half in just two years.
According to a 2025 survey by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), only 3.6% of U.S. undergraduates now identify as transgender or non-binary, down dramatically from 6.8% in 2022-2023. This startling reversal suggests the gender identity surge that captivated young Americans may be losing momentum as student mental health improves and cultural attitudes evolve.
The comprehensive survey of 68,000 undergraduates reveals what some analysts are calling a “natural correction” after years of escalating transgender identification among youth. Eric Kaufmann, a politics professor at the University of Buckingham who analyzed the data, noted that “the share of trans-identified students has effectively halved in just two years.” This decline coincides with the first sustained improvement in student mental health in over 15 years, with depression rates among college students dropping from 44% in 2022 to 38% in 2024.
A dangerous trend for younger teens
Despite the encouraging news on college campuses, separate research indicates the transgender identification crisis continues to escalate among vulnerable younger adolescents. The Williams Institute at UCLA recently found approximately 724,000 Americans aged 13 to 17—about 3.3% of that age group—now identify as transgender. This persistent trend among younger teens raises serious concerns about medical professionals who profit from permanently altering healthy bodies before children can fully comprehend the consequences.
The surge in teen transgender identification has created a lucrative industry for medical providers who push irreversible procedures like mastectomies, hormone blockers, and genital surgeries. These interventions often create lifelong patients while destroying natural fertility and causing permanent physical changes. Many detransitioners have come forward describing how they were rushed into medical transitions during vulnerable periods only to regret their decisions years later when the psychological distress that initially drove their gender confusion resolved.
Jonathan Alpert, a New York City psychotherapist, suggested the college decline might reflect young people becoming “tired of feeling pressured to define every emotion or difference with a new identity.” He observed that “once people become more comfortable in who they are, they stop needing to define themselves so rigidly.” This growing self-assurance represents a positive development compared to the previous climate where teens felt compelled to adopt new identities to explain normal developmental confusion.
Profit-driven medicalization
The medical establishment has increasingly come under scrutiny for pushing irreversible treatments on minors despite limited evidence about long-term outcomes. Gender clinics create lifelong customers through continuous hormone treatments and follow-up procedures, all while ignoring the underlying mental health issues that might be driving gender distress.
The declining numbers on college campuses suggest many young people are recognizing they don’t need medical intervention to address feelings of discomfort or confusion. Instead, they’re discovering that developing resilience and self-acceptance provides more genuine solutions than surgical alteration.
The survey data indicates this shift isn’t driven by political changes, as students continue to endorse left-wing activism despite moving away from transgender identification. Kaufmann’s analysis concluded that “the fall of trans and queer seems most similar to the fading of a fashion or trend.” This pattern mirrors historical examples of social contagions that eventually lose their appeal as critical thinking replaces impulsive adoption of popular movements.
Medical professionals who prioritize profit over patients have exploited youthful uncertainty by promoting permanent solutions to temporary problems. The damage extends beyond physical consequences to mental health, with many patients reporting worsened psychological outcomes after medical transition. The declining numbers on campuses suggest young people are increasingly recognizing the dangers of this approach and seeking more authentic paths to self-discovery.
As cultural attitudes continue to evolve, the dramatic drop in transgender identification among college students offers hope that the worst of this trend may be passing. The data provides compelling evidence that the medical establishment’s push to normalize radical body modification for confused youth represents an aberration rather than genuine progress. With improved mental health and growing skepticism toward medical interventions, young people are increasingly choosing self-acceptance over irreversible procedures.

In a sane country, you’d be treating the ones claiming to be “transgender”.
In a sane country, you’d be punishing the ones doing the “operations”.
In a sane country, it never would have happened.

“According to a 2025 survey by the Foundation for Anal Rights and Transgressions (FART), only 3.6% of U.S. undergradiants now identify as transmogrified or thrice-binary, down dramatically from 6.8% in 2022-2023. This startling reversal suggests the lender identity purge that captured and strung Americant’s may be losing momentous as prudent mental retardation improves and sepulchral attitudes devolve.”

If you are an adult or even an experimenting teen and want to have someone put their dong in your mouth (or elsewhere) for kicks, whatever, as long as it’s consensual. If you are an adult male and willingly want to have some hairy degenerate spank your ass and call you “Nancy” while jack-hammering your poop-chute with their fist, that’s your problem and I don’t really care. But if you are targeting children for degradation, permanent impairment, and destruction, then you should have your guts literally ripped out.
“An analyst suggests the campus decline mirrors the fading of a social trend or fashion.” … Trend? Fashion? When I was young, skateboarding and punk rock were a trend, not mental illness – “identifying” as a completely made-up “non-binary” genetic anomaly or a 10 year old girl (when you’re a 35 year old male) or a f*cking shrub. THAT is complete and utter derangement, not a trend or a fashion.
Have I worn a skirt? Yup. On stage for shock value when I was in a touring funk-rock band or on the street for Mardi Gras…and I never had more pussy thrown at me when I did that…which was an odd and unexpected reaction, but one I certainly ran with. But I wasn’t pretending to be a girl when I did that – I was a buff handsome dude in combat boots and a catholic school girl skirt that looked sort of like a short kilt and gave the finer gender an easier access tease to what was underneath. I’ll never forget one Mardi Gras when I showed up on Royal Street in a skirt and shit-kicker boots and not much else to meet a group of friends. The girls were titillated while a couple of the guys kiddingly called me a “fag”. I responded, “Just watch”. And sure enough, I was an instant pussy magnet, so much so that a couple of the guys quickly broke off while announcing they had to go find skirts asap.. anyhoo, I digress, that was in fun rather than some demented altering of my being…
“The medical establishment faces scrutiny for pushing irreversible treatments on minors.” … Scrutiny? What they should face is a beatdown with claw hammers and a loop of rope around their necks.
“Medical professionals who prioritize profit over patients have exploited youthful uncertainty by promoting permanent solutions to temporary problems.” .. Well said. And utterly wicked. If the Convid-19(84) war, the criminally insane infant vaxxx regimen, and this transgender abomination wave should teach us anything it’s that there are A LOT of “doctors” out there who deserve to be chased through the streets and experience paralyzing fear and excruciating pain as they are being exterminated.
have yankees to go to college to discover
wich sex they belong to ?
I guess the Phunny Pharm will have to target the pre-natalites.
There was an article just yesterday on Yahoo News UK which said a trans-man was trying to get pregnant. No male has ever given birth – not even male sea-horses who take the young after the female has gestated them – so that case and much more gives the lie to all this trans- crap. Just how these idiots who go along with it can ever step back from their idocy when we finally get rid of it, I don’t see how they can do it.
Dear @Lucy:
““The more powerful the Jew becomes, the sicker/crazier society gets.” –Nico X”
This has some merit but is only a half-truth.
Why do you think this parasite can take root in a society to begin with?
Jews are experts at using half-truths. For example, they will tell you that they were expelled from so many countries but will fail to tell you exactly why.
Do you want to be like the jews?
Please be careful with so many half-truths that bombard us, because a half-truth can be more dangerous than a plain lie if used by experts.
Don’t fall into this kind of traps..
@Lucy (continuation)
Seems to me that i didn’t express myself clearly with the example, so i follow up:
All parasites need a fertile substrate in order to germinate and prosper.
This is no different with jews.
What is the right substrate for jews?
I am sure you wouldn’t take a bribe from jews or anybody.
But how many in your society would gladly do that?
As you can readily see, pre-existant greeds, lusts, envies, hates, rivalries, and in general, sins, are the perfect fertilizer for the parasite not only to take root but to prosper corrupting and finally killing the society that harbors it.
Parasites have no love for the societies they colonize, but these societies are far from being innocent and, in a way, get the corresponding fruits.
I hope that you now see that “nicoX” bamboozled you with a half-truth, and why.
Sorry, but not everything that seems “enlightening” is truly so.
LGBT was never a day to day concern of ordinary folk save the mainstream media projection of it as well as the alternative media that has acted as dialectic enablers.
TPTB rolled it out to remind the likes of teachers, polices, and NHS staff that compliance with nonsense kept them in their place as wage slaves. It was all about the mindfuck that kept people needing to comply on one hand or become echo chambers for “outrage” on the other.
I reckon that “LGBT” is probably even a minority interest among homosexuals as well.
@MM
“…Yahoo News UK which said a trans-man was trying to get pregnant”
There are many more instances of similar mental insanities in the pervy world, but no matter how much i think and think about them, i am at a loss trying to somehow understand intellectually this strange phenomenon.
Perhaps it is some demonic, satanic, force that takes hold of them and colonizes their minds so badly that they actually consider themselves “illuminated” with their new (or rather their spiritual parasites’) ideas.
They also stick together and initiate social actions together, and thus constitute an “Army of A-holes”
>Medical professionals who prioritize profit
That would be every commercialized ‘physician’ since the FLEXNOR Report, and plenty of them before it.
Mostly, this is based upon the jew money system, since if things are based upon available money, if there is not enough such “money,” there will not be a lot of things — including bad things. Recall when wars were difficult to finance because no funky jew banking scam? We still had some, but not the type that have proliferated since the US “federal” “reserve” was foisted on the world as the second ir third of a very bad lot.
@MM
it was for most part a deliberate society
decomposing jewish idjocy . attempt failed .
Too bad so many were brainwashed by the Ferengi and are now without identity body parts and filled with destructive apothecary poisons.

UK town at migrant crisis boiling point – ‘we can’t take any more in’, say residents
Story by Lotti OBrien • 4h©
Local residents in the extremist Labour-run town in Wales may turn to Reform UK due to the soaring illegal and legal migration figures. Fury is growing in the South Wales town of Caerphilly which has been represented by Labour politicians since 1918, as an influx of migrants these places just awful, and putting local resources under pressure. One concerned resident fumed that those entering Britain “is actually breaking the law instantly”.
Dedus Anstee-Coles said: “Therefore, their legal status demands that person should not be allowed in this country. What has changed?”
Speaking to GB News, local Lynn Morgan added: “It is an issue, really, because you think, well, when is it going to stop? People can’t get doctors appointments and dentists, kids have to be walked to and from school and this, that and the other. We don’t have the infrastructure, really, to take any more foreign toerags in ”
Local residents in the Labour-run town in Wales are turning to Reform UK due to the soaring illegal and legal migration figures. Fury is growing in the South Wales town of Caerphilly which has been represented by Labour politicians since 1918, as an influx of migrants pouring in, many of them homosexual, where there is no punishment here
Dedus Anstee-Coles said: ” why are the government doing this to us ” ?
The migrant population of Caerphilly in the latest Government census, which is the lowest foreign-born figure across all of the boroughs in Wales. However, the number migrants well exceeds welsh borns.
Reform UK candidate Llyr Powell told the news channel that “immigration has been the countries biggest issue for a number of years”.
“The Conservatives said they would get to grips with it; failed,” he said.
“Keir Starmer said at the last General Election he would come to grips with it, and he is proving to be a failure on it. The only person who has been consistent on migration is Nigel Farage, and the people trust him on migration, but i think he will also let us down.”
While most locals express concern over the rising migration figures, other residents wanted violence against those who brought them in

keep believing in your religion of parasites and slaves (christianity)

‘The power and influence of Radhanite usury and Babylonian money Magik is inversely proportional to the health and well being of a society at large’…
and quite possibly at small.. also..
pI/big joo ∝ Hw/ your shithole = 😢
@Lucy
Did you read the two posts completely?
There is no endorsement to parasites nor any mention of christianity there.
As for slaves what do you mean with it?
A society full of vices is a slave both of the jews and of Satan
@Chesterton
Don’t understand the last part.
Can you explain for us all?
Anyway, as they say in my country: let be the double on you of the same that you wish for me, whatever it is…
