Original Note:
This claim is not supported by any study. The Steensma Study of 2011 claims the rate of desisting is ~80%. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21216800/ This study in itself is also flawed as it counts non trans kids and kids they lost track of as desisting from being trans. https://www.clairestranstalks.co.uk/news/do-80-of-young-people-really-grow-out-of-being-transgender
