President Donald Trump announced when he took office that the official policy of the U.S. government would be to recognize two sexes, male and female, a move that disrupted the pro-transgender ideology in many venues, including in American government programs and offices.
And he may even have had an influence overseas.
A report from the Christian Institute cites a Yougov polling that shows advocacy for "trans" rights across Great Britain has decreased "across the board."
The survey interviewed some 2,000 adults on issues ranging from medical "treatments" to men demanding to participate in women's sports, and the presence of males in intimate areas for women, such as locker rooms.
It revealed a majority say that certain "trans" rights actually are "a genuine risk of harm" to women.
And across the board, in all age groups, opposition to allowing people to legally "change" their sex has increased.
Actually, following the science, no one can "change" their sex since being male or female is embedded in the human body down to the DNA level, but activists in the campaign dress, act and portray themselves as the sex they are not.
The report added, "Opposition among the young has actively grown," and is up 16 points to 36%.
"The survey found that almost two in five Britons personally know someone who identifies as transgender, with noticeable differences across generations: 'While 53% of 18-24 year olds say they know someone transgender, this falls with each successive age group, reaching 26% of those aged 65 and above,'" the report said.
While activists have demanded, over and over, making it easier to obtain a "gender recognition certificate," actually few members of the surveyed public support that concept.
Not even one in five said that should be easier, while 63% said it should not.
"Similarly, 70% of Britons agree that the approval of doctors should be a compulsory part of gaining a GRC, and 66% say the requirement to live as the affirmed gender for a minimum of two years before being approved should be kept," the report said.
One of the more contentious issues, "transitioning" children, found the public's view one-sided.
"When it comes to treatments for under-16s, 75% say puberty blockers should not be allowed, with 78% saying the same of hormone treatments," the report said.
Doing a "gender reassignment surgery" on a child, which actually is a body mutilation, was opposed by 87%.
