About this listen

Irreversible Damage is an exploration of a mystery: Why, in the last decade, has the diagnosis "gender dysphoria", transformed from a vanishingly rare affliction, applying almost exclusively to boys and men, to an epidemic among teenage girls?

Author Abigail Shrier presents shocking statistics and stories from real families to show that America and the West have become fertile ground for a "transgender craze" that has nothing to do with real gender dysphoria and everything to do with our cultural frailty. Teenage girls are taking courses of testosterone and disfiguring their bodies. Parents are undermined; experts are over-relied upon; dissenters in science and medicine are intimidated; free speech truckles under renewed attack; socialized medicine bears hidden consequences; and an intersectional era has arisen in which the desire to escape a dominant identity encourages individuals to take cover in victim groups.

Every person who has ever had a skeptical thought about the sudden rush toward a non-binary future but been afraid to express it - this book is for you.

This book is an important, well written and thoroughly researched discussion of the explosion in Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria among young girls in the United States. It is in no way “transphobic” or disrespectful of the informed choices that adults who have suffered from gender dysphoria since early childhood make.
The author deals specifically with young women and girls who had not previously expressed such interest to undertake chemical and medical steps to become male, and the long term devastating consequences for their health and future fertility. There is minimal medical oversight in the business, and be sure of it, it is a business, so girls as young as 13 can receive life altering drugs without their parents’ knowledge or consent. Amazon has received considerable pressure not to sell this book so get it while you still can.
After reading this book I wonder when being female became a medical condition that needs to be treated.

This book really opened my eyes to what they're teaching in school and what they're allowing kids to do behind their parents backs. It's a scary thing that teachers and therapists are allowed to go against parents' wishes because they think they know better. Guard your daughters!

Really intriguing book

The content of this book was well researched and expressed in a unbiased way. After reading this I feel more comfortable respectfully discussing these issues with others. It is sad that as a society these types of discussions are frowned upon and avoided. We need more individuals like this author to stand up and express controversial viewpoints without fear.

Amazing Job

Words are insufficient to describe the alarming Trans craze effecting our children. This book will open your eyes to a perspective that few would hear elsewhere. Highly recommended for all parents of gender confused children.

It’s time for parents in America to know the facts. And this book does a great job of describing a phenomenon and “crazy“ that is damaging our girls. I encourage every parent to read it.

Essential Reading Every Parent

Highly recommend this book - we must be able to have real dialogue about difficult topics. Something we seem unable to do anymore as a society. This book should be passed along as fodder for conversation to parents, school administrators and anyone who will listen and thoughtfully engage.

Excellent listen, desperately needed

Abigale answers many questions that I have had about the Transgendered movement. And most importantly, ways to talk to your daughters about the joyousness of being a woman.

This is a well researched book. The author interviewed many transgender individuals, parents and detransitioners. I think all educators and doctors should read this.

For all the hate this book has received, it was surprisingly empathetic and kind towards trans issues. Abigail approaches the topic—not as someone who criticizes but as someone looking for an answer to the massive and sudden rise in transgenderism in young women. Asking real questions leads to real help. Read this book.

Fascinating Read
