Don't know about this study.

But with the way society continues to push this on the very young, as well as overeager parents humble bragging on social media of how proud they are that their 4-year old came out as trans, maybe not so hard to believe.

Young children who transition to a new gender with social changes — taking on new names, pronouns, haircuts and clothing — are likely to continue identifying as that gender five years later, according to a report published on Wednesday, the first study of its kind.

The study began in 2013 and tracked kids mostly before trans became a fad and the number of transitioning kids went way up. We won't know for a few more years what percentage of the new trans generation wind up changing their minds, or just how much damage has been inflicted on them.

But society isn't pushing transgenderism on the kids. Instead, it's the kids doing it from insisting they feel they should have been born of the opposite sex. Some get suicidal over it if their strange ideas are totally rejected. If only millions could be spent on research to discover why kids feel they were born of the wrong sex and how it can be prevented. I can't imagine what it must be like to be a male lesbian. Only few people would want to have sex with them. But maybe far leftists would be against such a scientific research endeavor, due to fear that along the way it will also be discovered how preventing homosexuality will also be discovered.

When you groom somebody at a very young age the damage is pretty much done before the age of five they're going to end up however you program them. There is some genetic factors involved in that personality but for the most part A lot of them are open books and will accept whatever they are fed by society parents etc. .... They are effectively being trained.

Getting into musical theory I learned that you can teach a child perfect pitch if you start really young in life as an example... It's something that can't be learned if it hasn't been taught past a certain age or is extremely difficult.

https://figur8.net/2010/03/22/how-to...perfect-pitch/

There are numerous examples of parents who will condition their children to be gifted at a certain skill at a very young age you can see examples all over YouTube this is very powerful when utilized properly.

In any case I have no issue with people over the age or 18 deciding to do whatever they want to their bodies but we have laws to protect minors for a reason because they're not mature enough to make responsible Life choices.

All I know is even when I was going to school between the mid 80's to the mid 90's, I had teachers thinking I was a lesbian because I was really just a Tom Boy. My dad was able to shut that stuff down in an instant. So this just goes to show that these teachers were putting their nose where it don't belong back then.

Funny enough though, while they push for kids to be themselves when it comes to sexuality, they are completely against the kids if they are themselves for questioning authority, or if a child is really an introvert and forcing them to do something that makes them uncomfortable like speaking in front of class or the whole school will set their anxiety through the roof, but who cares about a child's mental state as long as they are forced to abide by the curriculum.

Can I ask you why you would want it to be prevented?
Look at somebody like Bruce Jenner who has felt he was living a Lie for most of his life and is now content at this late stage in his life.
He basically lived his life conforming to what he thought were "Societal" norms and denying his true self. Why should we subjugate children who know who they are to the same miserable existence that Jenner had to endure?
I'm not sure why you lumped homosexuality into this either since one has nothing to do with the other.

Homosexuality has nothing to do with Bruce Jenner, who fathered 6 children with 3 wives. More likely his is a case of autogynephelia, a sexual fetish which afflicts very masculine men and sometimes consumes them later in life to the point that they want to live as women.

I suspect this is one those seek-and-ye-shall-find studies the NYT canvasses its followers for when needed.

These people are mentally ill; creating more problems for them for the rest of their life is just vicious.

Peer pressure. To be accepted you must be part of the new in crowd. Trans, gay, etc.
