Brilliant and Timely - Essential Reading

A fascinating insight into the epidemic of sudden onset gender dysphoria sweeping pubescent girls and understanding why. Trans activists are review-bombing this book with 1-star ratings but don’t let that deter you. “It’s possible to live a transgender life if that’s what feel’s right. But it’s also possible to have thought you should, only to decide you’re wrong.”

Extremely Important reading

This publication will be panned by the left- though it already has experienced a strong push-back, I am yet to see a bad review that either held water against reality, or came from anything other than the rainbow-haired failure brigade.

Never before has a book so eloquently explained what my Father called "Unimaginable stupidity of Youth", and more worryingly this latest 'craze' has now dwarfed the previous contagions of 'look at me I'm mentally ill'- and 'I have an eating disorder'.

If this need is not stopped, if this stupidity of not wanting to be seen as not in support of it- is not spoken about openly - in the future thousands of mutilated youths will come to us asking "why weren't we stopped?'. And none of us will be able to answer.

More people believe in Bigfoot, than are (actually) Trans, yet no one in their right mind can imagine a world where Abominable Snowman hunters require bathrooms, Constitutional amendments or Law changes to protect them and their 'rights'.

The hysteria talked about in this book, is gutting our young people, and destroying the rights of Women, if it is not stopped pity the World we leave behind.

If I let my 9 year old Daughter so much as choose what she wants for dinner all hell breaks loose- but we are to believe that sexual organ mutilation, and irreversible hormone alteration should be considered or even suggested, should she pick up a fire truck instead of a doll?

I never thought grooming would become law.

Must read. Great narration.

Very informative interviews. Must read for people interested and for people experiencing this with their kids.
I wish there was more on prevention, besides remove the child from his environment completely once into that.
I wish there was more on social contagions and how they die down, maybe there are lessons to be learned from there.

An excellent book

I’m a UK GP concerned by the huge increase in teenage girls wanting to transition, often to escape feminine stereotypes and the male gaze. This book is well researched and comprehensive.

Everyone Should Read This Book

Such an important book. Shrier takes on the voices of these young women and their families in a sympathetic and analytical way which aims to explore the phenomenon of Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria. She looks at the issue from the perspective of the parents of these young girls but also includes the works of experts and researchers. There is nothing Transphobic in this book and there is no suggestion that Trans people don't exist or that they should somehow have their rights removed. There are important questions we need to ask as a society in the way we treat Gender Dysphoria especially in children.

A timely counterpoint to the gender debater auhodoxy

If you're seeking a nuanced and balanced exploration of the trans debate, look no further than this eye-opening book. Compassionately written, the book is a welcome counterpoint to the often outspokenl activism in the debate.

A fantastic and important read

This book was eye opening and a great starting off point for anyone wanting to learn more about the sinister trend that’s developing in teen girls. I think the book struck a real chord with me because as a child of the 90s, I certainly saw the effect of social contagions and how they spread in teen girls with the anorexia and bulimia epidemics.

Shrier gives a fair, empathetic and balanced account of the concerning stories of the families of young women and girls affected by ROGD, and how social media is affecting this phenomenon.

This was an excellent companion books to Debra Soh’s book, as they compliment each other nicely. Soh’s book taking the more scientific critique and Shrier’s being more of a social/narrative examination.

The book was well narrated and pleasant to listen to, with good pace and tone.
