Americans reject transsexual surgery and anti-puberty legislation for youngsters

According to a study conducted by a conservative nonprofit group, the majority of Americans oppose transgender procedures and anti-puberty blockers for youngsters.

Respondents were asked if they would support a ban on puberty blockers, cross-sex medications, and physical sex-change procedures for children under the age of 18.

A prohibition would be supported by 56 percent of respondents, while 34 percent would not. According to the American Principles Project Foundation study, slightly more than a third of individuals polled identified as Democrats, 37 percent as Republicans, and just under a quarter as Independents.

Another survey questioned respondents if they favored or opposed forcing youngsters to alter their gender. Approximately 63% of respondents believed that youngsters were too young to make the decision. Around 22% of respondents said resistance to gender change was transphobic.

OnMessage Inc. polled probable general election voters by phone in six Senate battleground states — Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Nevada, and New Hampshire – for the American Principles Project (APP).

According to medical professionals, rates of gender dysphoria among young people have skyrocketed in recent years, yet many of their colleagues are hesitant to speak openly against transgender ism for fear of career and personal reprisal.

Rachel Levine, the highest-ranking transgender person in the United States government, made headlines last month when she stated during an interview with NPR that “there is no argument among medical professionals – pediatricians, pediatric endocrinologists, adolescent medicine physicians, adolescent psychiatrists, psychologists, etc. – about the value and importance of gender-affirming care.”
