I believe gender dysphoria is a real condition, but people are WAY to quick to label themselves as such and everyone else must go along with it for fear of being labeled a "bigot." The number of trasngender people I've encountered who are mentally unstable--not just emotionally, but to the point of delusions and split-personalities--is pretty damned disturbing. Those people should not be getting irreversible surgeries.
I completely agree... it is a mental illness whether people want to believe it or not. The sudice rate is 40%!!! And it makes virtually no difference if anyone know they are trans so the argument that they are bullied is completely false. It is a mental illness and the day people start realizing it I will finally will be able to trust doctors.
Well technically yes, gender dysphoria is a mental illness. But that doesn't mean transitioning and changing names and pronouns isn't an effective treatment for at least some individuals.
What my point was, is that too many people who *claim* to be suffering gender dysphoria are probably suffering something completely different, and should not be allowed to get irreversible sex change surgeries, but it's politically incorrect to question anyone who claims to be trans no matter how unstable they are.
I don't think it should be illegal because they can make whatever decision they want but if trans surgery is covered by healthcare then it's a problem for me because I don't want to pay for someone to do that.
Is it Normal that I don't agree with transgender people?
