A new poll finds most Americans disagree with providing gender-transitioning treatments to minors.

Only 22% support allowing puberty blockers or gender reassignment surgery for under-18s.

Similarly, just 10% support biological males competing in women’s sports.

The survey results come as England’s NHS banned puberty blockers for transgender-identifying youth due to lack of evidence for their safety and effectiveness.

“We have concluded that there is not enough evidence to support the safety or clinical effectiveness of puberty-suppressing hormones to make the treatment routinely available at this time,” an NHS England spokesperson said.

“Children, young people, and their families are strongly discouraged from getting puberty blockers or gender-affirming hormones from unregulated sources or online providers that are not regulated by U.K. regulatory bodies,” the NHS website states.

Catholic League president Bill Donohue praised this shift, saying future generations will view celebrating child abuse through gender treatments as a dark era.

He argued protecting children from ideological or financially-motivated exploitation by activists, professionals and influencers is the most urgent civil rights issue.

As views diverge sharply, even Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said she cannot define “woman.”
