Is the tide turning regarding gender ideology?

I exist in a world where the harms of gender ideology is very prevalent. I am also seeing there is a turning of conversations. With more cases being brought forward of the harm done owing to gender affirmative care and gender ideology I am hoping that this continues. Over the weekend was a major conference looking at this very issue, again this conference was targeted to be shut down (unsuccessfully) and the TRAs arrived shouting there usual nonsense. I am seeing a shift in the debate and I'm curious what others are experiencing in their own worlds?

You hope that more cases of people regretting transition come forward?

Please tell me your OP just reads badly and that you're not genuinely hoping more people become upset over their transition?

Hopefully OP. It's such unbearable nonsense.

During COVID lockdown there was an explosion of teenage girls presenting with "Tourette's" that often included them shouting BEANS and slapping their mothers.
It was usually to the parents suprise that the doctors did not in fact endorse a diagnosis of Tourette's but told them it was a tictok created non neurological condition ie hysteria.
But when a teenager says they are the opposite to what they actually biologically are - sure thing- let me just make sure that everyone indulges that ridiculous notion - no need to ever question or explore it- let's affirm it, here's a new friend group and some kudos oh and some hormones if you like......

I certainly hope the tide is turning. The worst of the situation has been that rational discussion is banned with shrieks of “bigot”.
If we can all start talking to each other and listening I hope a workable way forward might be achieved.
