“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” – Genesis 1:27
There have long been many fads such as clothing, dieting, and other things that have come and are now gone. Thankfully, there is hope that an incredibly harmful fad is now starting to lose steam—the sexual and gender confusion of transgenderism.
The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) just released a new study showing that the social contagion of transgenderism is dropping in popularity among college students. The survey revealed that in 2023, 6.8% of undergraduate students identified as a gender different than their biological sex.
Now, in 2025, the percentage of undergraduate students who identify as a gender different than their biological sex has dropped significantly to 3.6%. The ravaging “trans” fad is losing steam likely due to a few reasons.
One reason is that the horrors that accompany the transgender agenda are being made much more public as thorough investigations have revealed that young people who go through these destructive “transition” procedures experience a lifetime of pain and medical issues. Another reason is that government leaders, including here in Kentucky, have taken strong stands to fight the destructive ideology with laws and regulations fighting back against radical gender ideology and protecting kids from harm.
Furthermore, the Department of Justice is cracking down on medical professionals and institutions that are exploiting confused children by putting them through destructive “transition” procedures. Also, faithful and courageous truth advocates have played a big part on why the “trans” fad is fading as their stance for truth on human sexuality is helping young Americans who are confused to see the truth about gender.
As many fads come and go, let us be resolved to see this “trans” fad fade away permanently as we advocate for the truth that God created every person perfectly for a wonderful plan as either male or female.
LET US PRAY…
Father, we praise You that the “trans” fad is losing steam as it has caused great damage to many confused and vulnerable people, especially children. Lord, help us to advocate effectively for truth, so the “trans” fad permanently fades away. Father, help us to stand for Your truth in our culture effectively. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
