A new study from the American Academy of Pediatrics shows an alarmingly high rate of suicide attempts among transgender teens, particularly trans boys.
Nearly 14 percent of all adolescents in the study, “Transgender Adolescent Suicide Behavior,” based on data from “Profiles of Student Life: Attitudes and Behaviors” survey from the Search Institute, reported they had attempted suicide. But 51 percent of transgender males reported at least one attempt, the highest percentage of any gender identity group. The second highest was among non-binary teens, nearly 42 percent. More
It’s a mental disorder, suicide goes hand in hand with mental disorders
Seems reasonable. Can you imagine what it would be like to come to grips with the fact that you cut off your own dick?
I sure can’t, and I have a very active imagination.
I bet Barcelona has a suicide epidemic. 😱
Is a transgender “boy” a girl who thinks she’s a boy, or a boy who thinks he’s a girl?
I’m so confused.
What’s non-binary?
And I’m not clicking on that link, either…
Good. We should try to get the numbers closer to 100%.
I’m betting they’re almost entirely white.
So, “boys” need bathrobe belt mentors?
The other half succeeded?
High suicide rates in this community have been known for decades, but not they’re startled to discover this? Must be Trump’s fault, some how.
Authors of study banned and shunned and excoriated in 3… 2… 1…
Why stop them.
Worthless parents allow medical resources and billions of dollars to be wasted on unnecessary surgeries and hormone treatments so half of the “gender confused” can commit suicide. That is lousy use of valuable resources. All the “parents” and the gender confused need to do is wait for the “gender confused” to reach puberty. Let their hormones slap the snowflakes up side the head to remind them their gender is their biological (genetically encoded) gender.
When I was born in 1954 this $hit was sick
and mostly unheard of.In 2018 it is still
sick $hit but too dam common.
The left don’t care who they destroy. Mentally ill gender confused people are sacrificed for the left’s mission to replace stable societal norms with chaos.
Irish,
I agree. Another data point in the assertion that Libtard-ism (of which transgender is a subset) is a mental disorder.
“These harrowing statistics lay bare the urgency of building welcoming and safe communities for LGBTQ young people, particularly for transgender youth”
You big meanie conservatives just need to tell my Precious that he’s FABULOUS for everything he does no matter how offensive his cry for help.
This is solid irrefutable data right here that the Johns Hopkins physician Paul McHugh was right all along, but rather than work with helping the individual we are expected by libs to reconstruct society to fit a demographic of warped minds.
Newflash: feeding these warped minds is ill advised. Case in point, look at how many new gender designations they’ve invented, clamoring for attention and validation. McHugh said it best, you do a person with mental illness a disservice when you go along with their delusions. It’s simply not sustainable. We can not force the world to accommodate every fractured “self truth” put forth by someone who lacks the necessary coping mechanisms to fit in with society. That leads to chaos.
Psychiatry has become a sham. Standing up for mentally ill people and saying they are normal is just the tip of the iceberg.
