No surprise! This is what usually happens to manias, follies, fashions etc.!
Who still remembers the Beatlemania from 1963-1966? Young women and men were going crazy!
Perhaps, there is a mania for every generation!
What will the next fad be?
"... A report released on Wednesday concluded that the number of young American identifying as transgender or nonbinary has dipped in the last few years. This represents a major reversal given that transgenderism had been an exploding social phenomenon among young Americans since 2020. ..."
"Executive Summary
- After surging in the 2010s and 20s, trans and queer identities are in decline among young Americans
- The transgender share among university students peaked in 2023 and has almost halved since, from nearly 7 percent to under 4 percent
- The share of students identifying as not heterosexual fell by around 10 points in the same period
- The decline in non-heterosexual share is concentrated in the queer or other sexual categories (i.e. pansexual, asexual) and, to a lesser extent, bisexuality
- Today’s freshmen are less BTQ+ than seniors, suggesting that decline will continue
- The decline in BTQ+ identification does not appear to be connected to lower social media use, religious revival, a shift to the political right or lower support for woke ideology
- There is evidence that improved mental health has reduced BTQ+ identification
