Can you perhaps mention to them that according to an often-cited survey done by the National Center for Transgender Equality, a trans advocacy group, close to 90% of their beloved TiMs keep their male genitalia and around 63% are attracted to women?

Do you have a link for that? That might be useful for future arguments.

It's the National Center for Transgender Equality 2015 survey. It's available online. It's kind of discredited because of the methodology, however, trans activists cherry pick the numbers from it whenever those numbers support their arguments. This might be the link:

There's another NIH study (IIRC) that had an even higher rate of TiMs who kept their male genitalia; I saw it in an article, but when I clicked on the link the study was gone. Fancy that - the National Institute of Health doesn't want us to know the % of TiMs who keep their dicks...

There are multiple papers reporting a very low rate of genital surgeries in TIMs. This report from the US journal Transgender Health in 2016 showed that out of the 234 TIMs studied and considered to be representative of the population of "TW" in the US overall, only 11 - or 4.7% - had undergone genital surgery.

A much higher percentage of TIMs will tell pollsters, online surveys and HCPs that they intend to get genital surgeries at some point down the line, but they rarely actually do so. Even males who are basically "professionally trans" and base their entire lives and livelihoods around claiming to be women, such as Gigi Gorgeous and Blaire White, usually end up deciding not to get genital surgeries. In fact, Gorgeous and White have made videos saying they see the results of such surgeries as repulsive in appearance, smell and function.

TIMS tend to be very much into their dicks, which is why they are trying to simply rebrand them by pushing for normalization and widespread acceptance of the ridiculous concept of "the female penis" and "girl dick."

It is really important that we let everyone know that most TiMs have intact male genitalia!

So thanks for chasing this study down - Bookmarked!
