I disagree. The pendulum tends to swing back and forth on these things. As the pendulum in the West moves past soft liberal and into the authoritarian hard left, the reaction against it will build up (because most people in the West do still value individual liberty highly), and the pendulum will swing back the other way.

I'm talking about the Zeitgeist of the times. Transgendered issues have been near the top of the media and social agenda for the last couple years, despite affecting very few people. In five years, it will be something else - something else so obscure it would be impossible to predict today.
