Individually we are weak, like a single twig, but as a bundle we form a mighty f*ggot!As to whether that band of brothers turned people towards Trump: I see it as more of being on the wrong side of an 80/20 issue more than anything.
Are TRANS people really just high definition cross dressers Originally Posted by RipmanyLol. That's an interesting way of looking at it, for people who identify with the other sex but haven't done anything about it. When someone progresses to hormones, implants, and man made genitals, it's a step beyond "high definition" IMO.
And you think LGBTQ community put trump back in off by saying there for Democrats. So many people voted against the LGBTQ, even if means voting for trump. Originally Posted by RipmanyAnother interesting hypothesis. I've thought that the Republicans squander votes when they demean the LGBTQ community. For example, my cousin was a Trump supporter who now votes a straight Democratic ticket, after her son become her daughter. But yes, there are many social conservatives, who might not have gone to the trouble to vote if Republicans were pro-LGBTQ, pro choice, etc.
It would help if you spell and grammar checked your post. It is a bit hard to determine exactly what you are saying. No worries, though. The hate and spite still come through clearly.

....It seems you have what some would call an "alternate lifestyle" yourself. That is, you pay women "for their time."
TGs are sick people. theres nothing normal about a man calling himself a female or a female calling herself a male. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm
Transgender Identification in ‘Free Fall’ Among Young AmericansPlus, there seems to be a growing trend of many self-deporting to other countries.

Identifying as transgender and queer appears to be “going out of fashion among young people, especially in elite settings,” according to a new report from the Centre for Heterodox Social Science.
The report, authored by Eric Kaufmann, director of the centre and professor of politics at the University of Buckingham, found that transgender and queer identification has dropped sharply among young Americans in Generation Z since 2023. Kaufmann analyzed troves of data from recent surveys about gender and sexuality, including the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) survey, and surveys from elite institutions like Andover Phillips Academy in Boston and Brown University.
“Whether trans and queer identities will drop to 2010 levels is an open question. But the fact both have declined sharply in just two years is a startling and unanticipated post-progressive development that the education and media establishments will be reluctant to acknowledge,” Kaufmann wrote of his research in an article published to UnHerd on Tuesday.
Analyzing raw data from the most recent FIRE survey, which polled over 60,000 students in 2025, Kaufmann found that just 3.6 percent of respondents identified as a “gender” other than male or female. That figures compared to 5.2 percent in 2024 and 6.8 percent in 2022 and 2023.
“In other words, the share of trans-identified students has effectively halved in just two years,” he wrote.
Kaufmann found that surveys at Andover Phillips Academy and Brown University showed and even more pronounced trend. At Andover, 9.2 percent identified as neither male or female in 2023 but crashed to just 3 percent in 2025. At Brown University, that percentage has dropped from 5 percent in 2022 and 2023 to 2.6 percent in 2025...
When looking at more surveys including sexual orientation, the data reflect rising nonconformity from 2010 until 2023, followed by an almost 10-point swing back in 2024 and 2025, Kaufmann found.
“Interestingly, when the trans and queer trends were at their peak, freshmen were more likely to be non-conforming in their gender and sexuality than seniors,” he noted. “Now that BTQ (bisexual, trans, queer or questioning) identification is in decline, the reverse is true: younger students are less BTQ than older students in their colleges. This is a sign that fashions are changing.”...
