I swear my response absolutely fucked off for some reason. Whatever I'll re-write it.
Let me reiterate that in no circumstance whatsoever has a cat or a dog or a sea mollusk been actually born from the womb of a human being. No matter how you look at that people who come to the conclusion they were supposed to be born a different species are mental, or seeking attention.
That doesn't even make physical sense at that rate you'd have to be thinking that it's a spiritual mix up or someshit.
I don't deny that being transgender could be a similar mental issue but at goddamn least you can reach a possible cause that isn't "Oh my spirit is just different, mang". Idk like the level of testosterone and estrogen introduced during early development, yeah? People expect that might have a hand in sexuality and outward gender expression. Don't quote me on that though, as I tend to say in every argument, I am literally just an internet idiot. Research that shit, send me a link to the journal too, Idc.
Regardless, what sort of help are you suggesting we get? Counseling? Therapy? Group meetings? Done and done. The majority of us(the ones with enough money and insurence to pay for it) Go for regular meetings for mental health. You want us to seek jesus or something or speak to someone who specifically says. "Stop fucking around" and sends us home. I don't get it.
In the end every person has their own freedom to do whatever the fuck they want with their own body. Women can get tit jobs, men can screw up their dicks with those penis enlargement machines, people can get tattoos, plastic surgery, sharpen their teeth to look like animals. As fucked up as you or I think it might be, it's their own body in the end.
But you know what, mate. Its not that I totally disagree with you, in fact if there is research to back up what you're saying I say go ahead and spread it. If there is some other way other than surgeries and counseling, spot on, I'm sure some of us would give it a go. Spread the info, man. Give us links and people to speak to about it. Let's do it.
Otherwise as one internet idiot to another, people are going to do what feels best. Some are going to fuck up and regret it. Some are going to do nothing at all and rot in their own minds. Best case is to go slowly and reason well no matter what your decision is. Know the risks, know the possible outcomes, know that none of it is a cure, it's staving off the symptoms, but sometimes even that is worth it.
Are you transgender/agender?
