Looking forward to the next post on the reasons for all this. I imagine the difference in red and blue states can be largely explained with the advent of restrictions on pediatric gender medicine in red states, which came around near the time of the divergence. Probably plenty to unpack there, including the claim from trans activists of a rash of suicides if these minors don't have that access.

I am also interested in the older generations actually going down in trans IDs. My first thought was people getting tired of pretending to be the other sex, but someone on X had a grim hypothesis. Could it be early deaths in that period of life? We have seen studies on the long term effects of synthetic testosterone in natal females inducing early menopausal symptoms. Hormones are powerful, we don't have good data on long-term effects when pumped into opposite sexed bodies. It would be interesting to see if anyone is looking at that.
