North Carolina Passes "Anti-LGBT" Bill

[Renewed Imperial Germany]

Actually, surgery has been found to greatly reduce gender dysphoria, considering, you know, the female's body now is female, and vice versa. Studies also show that transpeople have brains wired more like their gender than their birthsex. But I don't think you care about facts, considering your post is completely devoid of any.

Thank you for your opinion.

At least my 'opinion' is grounded in scientific evidence and not personal bigotry.

[Renewed Imperial Germany]

Which is a result of politics and not actual psychiatry. Until very recently they did list them as disorders, and other associations around the world still do. Please be careful how you characterize political organisations when discussing the issue.

The entire field of psychiatry is just a tool of the liberal intelligentsia. We need to go back to phrenology.

Meh. We need to go back to talking about phlegm and bile. Bleeding people cures all ailments.

Free advice. Do not backsass mods. Won't end in smiles for you.

Thank you for that advice, I never would have guessed.

Proven facts!
I am proof! (it's really easy to see the differences with me; I've got a non-trans identical brother.)

Arthritis? Let's bleed you!
Pneumonia? Let's bleed you!
You're bleeding? Let's bleed you!

To say nothing of the fact that human rights shouldn't be subject to the whims of popular opinion.

I'd argue that in this case the humane thing to do would get these people the treatment they need to become healthy and productive members of society.

Treating them like the human beings they are, like you'd treat any other human being? Right?

Yes, precisely.

Yes, precisely.

Treating people different from you as delusional freaks is far from treating them as human.

I suspect counselling, or meds even if it's severe enough. Mental illness simply cannot be left untreated. And yes, medications and counselling work, a lot of the time.

For Gender Dysphoria?

No, actually, they almost never work.

No there is no cure for Gender Dysphoria. It's not an illness

Don't lecture me on Gender Dysphoria. I am trans, I know what I am talking about.

Gender Dysphoria is a syptom of having a gender identity that doesn't match up with one's biological sex. Surgery allievates this.

[Nochov]

Yes, precisely.

Treating people different from you as delusional freaks is far from treating them as human.

Getting them the help they need rather than forcing society to coddle them around their illness.

I choose not to lecture. And yes i am aware of what it is. I just don't believe its a MENTAL ILLNESS. It's a state of mind. Classifying it as an illness immediate casts it as evil. What's wrong with it?

We've all seen the smashing success rates of conversion therapy. *nod nod* Pray Away the Trans!

"an unhealthy condition of body or mind, see sickness".
It is, though.

Agreed that its not a mental illness. But it is a painful position to be in, as I personally can attest to. And transitioning is the solution to the situation.

It doesn't have that nice ring to it, though.

I see nothing unhealthy with it. Try and explain this. What argument could you possibly have against it?

THAT is something i can get on board with. And you're brave for completing your transition. I commend you.

Haven't transitioned yet, on account of being forced by my *ahem* familial situation and age to live in a closet. Im not brave at all, really.

[Dumb Ideologies]

I think you should discuss your delusion that transgender identity can be talked away with your therapist and let other people get the treatment that has been proven to work.

Then, I wish you the best of luck. Once you get out of the house, life will become easier for you, trust me. It was extremely hard for me coming out as a non-binary pan in high school, and in many ways i still am.

Apparently uneducated opinions and fearmongering should be laws, and not facts or basic decency
