On Tuesday night, Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro spoke at Susquehanna University, and during the Q&A after his speech engaged in a dialogue with the president of the University’s College Democrats, who tried to claim that Shapiro was incorrect when he claimed that in general, suicide rates among transgender individuals do not drop post sex-reassignment surgery.
Shapiro immediately pointed out that the study the questioner cited was flawed because it simply did not allow enough time post-op for a valid judgment to be made as to the efficacy of the surgery for the patient psychologically. He also noted that some statistics could be flawed because the studies thenselves were self-reported, asserting, “Questionnaire studies are not as good as behavioral studies.”
