4thWaveNow

4thWaveNow är en blogg som startades av en mamma till en ROGD-ungdom (som nu detransitionerat). Bloggen har utvecklats till ett nätverk för föräldrar och andra som är bekymrade över medikalisering av ungdomar och barn som identifierar sig som trans eller avviker från genusnormerna.

4thWaveNow was founded in 2015 by Denise, the mother of a teenage girl who suddenly announced she was a trans man after a few weeks of total immersion in YouTube transition vlogs and other trans-oriented social media.  Denise’s daughter Chiara has since desisted from identifying as transgender and in 2019 cofounded an organization for desisted/detransitioned women, the Pique Resilience Project.4thWaveNow founder Denise and friends.

In early 2015, after much research and fruitless searching for an alternative online viewpoint, Denise began writing about her deepening skepticism of the ever-accelerating medical and media fascination with the phenomenon of “transgender children.”

4thWaveNow has now expanded to feature not only Denise’s writing, but that of other parents, formerly trans-identified people, and others with professional expertise and experience with young people questioning their gender identity.
