Walsh explained that while interviewing people from around the world and filming his documentary, he learned that \u201cwe can win this fight.\u201d Later, Walsh\u2019s optimism was reinforced by a former transgender student who came to the microphone during the Q&#038;A session and thanked Walsh for his work on the issue.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Former trans student thanks <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MattWalshBlog?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MattWalshBlog<\/a> for his work on educating people of the dangers of radical gender ideology <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/gf0pTqJtcX\">pic.twitter.com\/gf0pTqJtcX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Daily Wire (@realDailyWire) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDailyWire\/status\/1578199006517157888?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 7, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Later during the Q&#038;A session following Walsh\u2019s speech, the bestselling author was asked if he would change his mind about transgender surgeries if data supported the procedures, such as for preventing suicide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve tried to come up with the research to prove that it\u2019s long term beneficial to transition people.
