Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters is a 2020 book by Abigail Shrier, published by Regnery Publishing, which endorses the controversial concept of rapid-onset gender dysphoria (ROGD).[1][2][3] ROGD is not recognized as a medical diagnosis by any major professional institution nor is it backed by credible scientific evidence.[1]
Shrier states that there was a "sudden, severe spike in transgender identification among adolescent girls" in the 2010s, referring to teenagers assigned female at birth.[4][1] She attributes this to a social contagion among "high-anxiety, depressive (mostly white) girls who, in previous decades, fell prey to anorexia and bulimia or multiple personality disorder".[4] Shrier also criticizes gender-affirming psychiatric support, hormone replacement therapy and sex reassignment surgery (together often referred to as "gender-affirming care") as treatment for gender dysphoria in young people.[5]
Response to the book has been mixed. Positive reviews mostly endorsed Shrier's thesis, while much of the criticism focused on the book's use of anecdotes and other issues with its evidence. There were several boycotts aimed at the book which characterized it as anti-trans and its use of "she" to refer to teenagers identifying as transmasculine and non-binary as misgendering.
