Have there been any studies that pointed to pollution causing an increase? I know alarms have been raised about hormone mimicking plastics.

Any "increase" is merely people no longer being forced in the closet by social and legal fascism against gender dysphoria.

It's disgusting how people feeling free to come out of the closet and live their true LGBTQ life is being characterized as an "increase" in homosexuality and gender dysphoria.

Changes in the medical establishment have also been a factor, 15 years ago I likely wouldn't have been able to transition medically because I don't want to be the stereotypical high-femme Barbie girl type and am generally not interested in sleeping with men.

It’s purely because we aren’t tanning our balls enough. Just about as valid as your request for studies.

Trump is right about the system we use to vote for our leaders being very dangerous. It's just that it's dangerous for him, his supporters and the brand of fascism they are pushing in order to eliminate the democratic processes we've based our freedoms on and replace it with a dictatorship that's in line with his style of management. That style of his eliminates the need to seek consensus, to bargain, to create bi-partisan legislation and have a unified nation that shares common goals.

These are things that are impossible for Trump to accomplish because he is not a statesman. He does not have the intellect nor natural leadership abilities that are essential for a leader to be successful in a democracy. Therefore, his only play is to form a much more simpler form of gov't where he can dispense with any and all laws that would legally stifle his personal wants and needs.

The most dangerous part of this scenario? It's those millions of Americans that would like Trump to succeed in his efforts at throwing democracy under his and Putin's heels for the simple reason that democracy isn't working for them so it needs to go.

Gerrymandering and the electoral college have become the dangerous parts

Had time to Google. And there have been studies. Possible culprit are EDCs (endocrine-disrupting chemicals). The reason behind it doesn't invalidate those that are effected but we should be aware of it.
Yes, there have "been studies", but that article and one of those linked within are full of phrases like "Researchers are beginning to recognize – based on limited available evidence – that the chemical environment is one of many available explanations for gender dysphoria in modern environments" and "This hypothesis, which clearly needs to be substantiated " and "It’s premature to call it a theory; at this point, it barely qualifies as a hypothesis "
So, y'know, there's that.
