I don't know what you people think the desistance rate is, I want to say 80%? I'm pretty sure that's what you say, so let's assume it's that. And also that the only reason a trans kid would ever desist is that they suddenly are totally okay with their birth gender now, and not because they've experienced so much transmisia that the closet looks like a nicer place again.

80% desistance means 20% of trans kids don't desist. Depending on who you ask, the rate of trans people in the overall population is somewhere between 2% and one in a trillion. Both of which, you'll notice, are rather smaller than 20%.

So even if we buy your dumb fake statistic, trans kids are still overwhelmingly more likely than average to be trans adults.
