Gender dysphoria—severe discomfort in one’s biological sex—was vanishingly rare, typically found in less than .01 percent of the population, emerging in early childhood, and afflicting males almost exclusively. But today whole groups of young female friends are coming out as “transgender.” Abigail Shrier, a writer for the Wall Street Journal, has dug deep into the trans epidemic, talking to the girls, their agonized parents, and the counselors and doctors who enable gender transitions, as well as to “detransitioners”—young women who bitterly regret what they have done to themselves. Shrier offers urgently needed advice about how parents can protect their daughters or retrieve them from this dangerous path.
