Original Note:
Haidt does not say that non-trans people are coming out as trans "as a means to become popular." Rather, he ascribes the rise in trans youth in part to peer effects, a phenomenon that is indisputable in other contexts but is still debatable w/r/t LGBT youth. https://www.afterbabel.com/p/social-media-mental-illness-epidemic https://www.pbs.org/wnet/firing-line/video/jonathan-haidt-xp90dy/
