Yeah, maybe, but fuck these people, their reasons aren't a priority to me.

That statement is so, so fallacious.

Your psyche is not complete and fully developed when you are born, and you can alter your body physiologically in various ways.

It develops however it develops. Interfering in the process creates the problems we have today.

As far as I'm concerned they're still what they we're born to be. It disgusts me in so many ways to think these kinds of things are legal.

...I never said otherkin existed. The difference is, one is changeable and makes legitimate sense, the other is unchangeable and has no psychological basis.

I've already taken biology. The intersex phenomenon is not a law, it is a mutation based on flawed genes.

No, all human genotypes are prone to intersex conditions (enough ambiguity of sexual corporeality for pathologization), given how everybody is a little ambiguous due to the same reasons some people develop ambiguous genitals and gonads, or will experience a heterosexual puberty (i.e. a boy developing "as a girl" and vice-versa), or will have a neurological wiring regarded as more typical of the "opposite sex".

And those would be?

Interference isn't the cause of homosexuality or gender dysphoria.

If we went by that notion, I would have annihilated you long ago.

I agree it shouldn't be done by others. Which is why intersex conditions shouldn't be pathologized, people mutilate at least 10% of intersex infants' genitals because of said bullshit.

They aren't even partially about the body frankly. It's a communicative endeavor. The body part just gets you over the first hurdle.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

The mutilation in this case is the correct thing to do. If I had grown up that way, I'd have killed myself long ago. Don't you understand how humiliating and embarrassing that would be? I'd feel like a monster.

How was that a refutation to what I said?

The genitals of a trans person even aren't central to many forms of sex. Hell, lots of them are dysphoric.

And that's where psychology steps in to help the individual.

Someone who claims to have taken Psy should understand this.
