The president of the World Professional Association forTransgender Health (WPATH) has admitted that social contagion isa factor in the dramatic increase in children and adolescents identifying as transgender.
Dr. Marci Bowers, a trans-identified male and president of the leading transgender health organization that pushes for affirmation and medical intervention for youth who believe themselves to be members of the opposite sex, made the comments in a recent interview with the New York Times.
This is not the first time Bowers has made such comments. In 2021, the celebrity gender surgeon who has performed more than 2,000 vaginoplasties acknowledged the possibility that the surge in teenage girls identifying as boys was a social trend.
This didn’t stop WPATH from removing all lower age requirements from its latest Standards of Care guidelines, nor did it cause the internationally respected transgender health group to reconsider advising clinicians to immediately affirm every child who declares a transgender identity.
Another leading figure in the field of gender medicine to acknowledge the social contagion factor is Dr. Erica Anderson, a trans-identified clinical psychologist who has treated hundreds of children and adolescents for gender dysphoria.
Last year, Anderson wrote about the power of trans influencers on TikTok and YouTube encouraging young people to identify as transgender.
Lipservice… WPATH should be ashamed that they acknowledge that and do nothing…young lives don’t matter in the transgender corporate world, it is wicked
