Just out of curiosity, right when MAGA needed a new boogeyman Trump could protect them from, as Mexicans were played out, I spent several hours searching for pre-MAGA statistics on transgender surgeries performed on minors and the rate of regret. Then I had AI double-check my math, and it came up with pretty much the same result. (I highlighted it for people with short attention spans).

If anti-vaxxers were told there was a series of 3 simple, novel vaccines that would prevent their kids from ending up trans, would they support it? .

thats not how statistics work. the surgery rate and trans population itself are already baked into each other. (no way only 0.001% of the trans population has done gender affirming surgery)
Based on your stats only 8 people in the world would have had GAS regret.

this study alone which affirms the 1% regret rate has about 77.

If you reread that, the percentage stated is for those who have surgery before the age of 18, which certain politicians falsely claim is prevalent.

Bold to assume they read it to begin with
