Or it would mean your body is not right and your brain is. Seeing as there's a solution to occurrences of this I'm going to keep on transitioning.

lol ok tell me more about brain mechanics

dipshits what does that even matter they're obviously of sound enough mind to make medical decisions according to the doctor so who cares. if I want to surgically alter my head to install horns I should be allowed to.

Its easier for you to install horns than it is to look and be how I want.

Not at all. Sexuality and gender are separate things. Ive always been bi.

I just prefer women more now because its less about sex and other stupid crap I dont care about.

I know sexuality and gender are separate and didn't expect you to turn bi. I was just curious if you had different tendencies at different times or anything since my amateur guess would be hormones might do stuff with attractiveness of people or whatever.

So, what I am saying is that I want to be nice and supportive to people, and it doesn't really matter to me whether troons are dramacrazy or just have a legit medical problem. I just want them to disavow rape by deception and to accept that I am going to use gender words according to how they make sense to me and not how they make sense to someone else's made up poo poo. kthx/

Because it works when it comes to trans people. When people make that change they become happier and the problems previously either lessen or go away completely. The problems people report after transitioning are generally to do with how society treats them, people who are treated well live happy lives.

You can turn puberty on or off just by spending a few minutes meditating and really concentrating on it each day.

maybe back when people had to lead double lives but not anymore. troons will always have the dual identity thing though since they make such a dramatic shift (by choice ofc).

Trans people who lie and try to trick people are bad.

People have absolute agency over their bodies. Medical professionals should help people to be happy and healthy.

Compassion is important on all sides. Gender pronouns and special snowflake'ism shouldn't be forced; the idea of who you are at birth shouldnt be forced either.

It is true though, its like the opposite of healthy although I personally could have lived without the mental image. FYI the people that resolve their mental illnesses that are co-morbid with 'gender dysphoria', which again is not even real, no longer have the completely insane problem of believing themselves in the wrong body. To be 100% clear, it is impossible, at this time, and forever, to be in the 'wrong' body. You can think you are, but actually, it's just your only body

People can do what they like to themselves and should be free to do it, even if its dumb or crazy. As long as they don't burdern other people :) But there's still this small matter of that extremely loving queer poo poo you said about giving kids hormones to avoid the 'forced change' of puberty
