Summary

There was a sudden and severe spike in teenage girls identifying as trans during the 2010s. The thing is…today, young girls are easily getting their hands on body altering hormones to begin transitioning genders despite having no history of gender dysphoria. So, why is no one stopping them?

Alex Clark sits down with Abigail Shrier, author of “Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters,” to get to the bottom of the phenomenon behind gender dysphoria. Alex asks Abigail the hard questions: What is causing this? How are girls getting these hormones so easily? What happens to the doctors who speak out against it? Do these girls regret their transitions later? PLUS: how parents and students can fight back on campuses across America.
