A backlash against gender ideology is starting in universities
Can someone please tell me how important this topic based on the amount of news time and eyeballs it attracts relative to the number of people that it affects?<p>The numbers I can find for US citizens is: 0.6% or 1,988,696 out 331,449,281 of people total for the entirety of the US in 2021.<p>&gt;<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;LGBT_demographics_of_the_United_States" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;LGBT_demographics_of_the_Unite...</a><p>In the UK where the featured article took place the latest poll I could find comes counts the number of people who selected &quot;other&quot; when choosing a sex at 0.4% or 224,632 people out of 64,596,800.<p>&gt;<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;practicalandrogyny.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;16&#x2F;how-many-people-in-the-uk-are-nonbinary&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;practicalandrogyny.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;12&#x2F;16&#x2F;how-many-people-in...</a><p>Personally I don&#x27;t think this is very important compared to other topics.  There are more blind people than trans people.  There are more people with Alzheimer&#x27;s than trans people.  There are more people in the US who have lost a limb than trans people.<p>I don&#x27;t mean to downplay what is happening because it is happening but do you not think the amount of outrage this topic generates surpasses the level of impact we can have assuming we fix it?  It just feels like we&#x27;re being distracted.
