How about counseling that can be focused on the patients keeping their sexual parts, instead of going through life changing surgery that can be undone.

This should settle any debate on this issue. Any citations of the Swedish study as an attempt to evaluate the efficacy of gender reassignment surgery are a misrepresentation of the author's findings. She indicated the study was not designed to evaluate pre and post op comparisons for that purpose.

Facts don't care about your feelings. As I said before studies showed the treatment helps more than not. Therapy to help prevent suicide is good. But gender conversion psychotherapy is ineffective and downright harmful.
Your way kills more people.

But we all know that is secretly what you right wing nutjobs want. You want to remove the existence of anything other than pure male or female, pretend these trans people don't exist, and quietly have them kill themselves or murder them. Or you'd rather they live uncomfortable lives and suffer just so you feel less icky about them. With all due respect, which is none, fuk you.

Would more testosterone ever be considered a treatment for a boy having gender dysphoria? I doubt it.

And our law is often contradictory and stupid on many matters. For example, why do we pretend pro sports are clean? lol

Wincel would you be in favor of someone with "body integrity dysphoria" having themselves surgically blinded or a limb removed if it improved their quality of life? This is currently considered a mental illness under the DSM 5.

For trans, we have data showing the surgeries are overall helpful. That's why doctors debated this and decided this fuking like 20 years ago. And we keep getting more data that it is worth offering.

I started thinking about WHY someone would be that way. When I went through my own depression and mental illness, I was forced to acknowledge the physicality of my brain and the fact that it may have a real chemical imbalance due to trauma. The physiological changes were reinforcing my depression. And I got to thinking what about other mental health issues? Indeed, today, we know there is a physiological component to every mental health issue. And if we dug deep enough, we'd have a physical explanation.i dont have a counterargument other than it is gross.
What makes a trans person? Is it an aberration in development? Perhaps there is a male brain and female brain, and somehow some receptors were fuked? Perhaps it was due to trauma or some environmental thing? Maybe a combination of both? Fact is we don't know. But we do know some things statistically seem to help. And we know these people exist and need help somehow and society had largely forsaken them until only recently. I'd never date a trans person, and I don't really understand them. But I can empathize with their situation, and I can see what makes it better and what makes it worse.
I will go with what the studies generally show and the decision of the doctors to offer these surgeries with appropriate psychological screening. The doctor mentioned earlier in the thread was a criminal and unlicensed. He was not following protocol.

Wincel, if a white man identified as black man (bearing in mind, you don’t need surgery’s or even HRT for a male to now claim womanhood).
Would you be against letting him claim limited aids that are designed to help the black community? Such as grants, affirmative action etc?
Would you allow any crimes he committed to be listed as black crimes?
Would you force the black community to recognise this man as black and punish them if they spoke out?
Would you allow him to claim “First black xxxxxx” if he reaches a goal that a black man hasn’t had the opportunity accomplish yet?
Would you allow this man to be hired as black to fill any diversity quotas a workplace might have?
Would you allow him to be a black spokesman and drive policy change that could affect primarily black people?
Or would you let him look, dress and acts as he wants BUT recognise that no matter how much he wants it and no matter how much he believes it. He is a white man and his claiming to be a black man might potentially be at the detriment to the already unprivileged black community?
There is less biological differences between white and black males than there is between males and females. Why is transrace seen as heresy and transgender lauded as bravery?

If you can’t define race then you can’t define racism. If you can’t define sex then you can’t define sexism. Easy and clever way to stop those ‘pesky’ non-white males from speaking up about their oppression. Fair play tbh.

I have been very vocal about discrimination against white men. I have always contended that one can switch the word white with black and ask if the title is ok. If not, it's racist.

So what about sex? Do you think a scientist couldn’t define the sex of a body?.... Also how does “smooth blending” for the sexes work? I imagine these people would amount to a fair proportion of society what with all the males and females keep breeding together. What gametes do this third sex create and to who's do they react with please?

We have words, such as chromo****l sex, and phenotype to capture these notions more carefully. I have never read any scientific literature on gender. I know gender dysphoria is a well-defined phenomenon where a person self identifies as something other than their chromo****l sex would suggest and is deemed socially aberrant. There is no smooth blending of sexes as there is with race. There is a discrete number of sexes. It is more than 2 because you have xx, xy, xxy, x, etc. Most that are not XX or XY are infertile. Some XXY can produce sperm.

We have words, such as chromo****l sex, and phenotype to capture these notions more carefully. I have never read any scientific literature on gender. I know gender dysphoria is a well-defined phenomenon where a person self identifies as something other than their chromo****l sex would suggest and is deemed socially aberrant. There is no smooth blending of sexes aa there is with race. There is a discrete number of sexes. It is more than 2 because you have xx, xy, xxy, x, etc.

Klinefelter syndrome (sometimes called Klinefelter's, KS or XXY) is where boys and men are born with an extra X chromosome.
Chromosomes are packages of genes found in every cell in the body. There are 2 types of chromosome, called the sex chromosomes, that determine the genetic sex of a baby. These are named either X or Y.
Usually, a female baby has 2 X chromosomes (XX) and a male has 1 X and 1 Y (XY). But in Klinefelter syndrome, a boy is born with an extra copy of the X chromosome (XXY).
The X chromosome is not a "female" chromosome and is present in everyone. The presence of a Y chromosome denotes male sex.
Boys and men with Klinefelter syndrome are still genetically male, and often will not realise they have this extra chromosome, but occasionally it can cause problems that may require treatment.
Klinefelter syndrome affects around 1 in every 660 males.”

NHS... our health service. Maybe chromosomes are seen as different in USA though.
Anyone with a Y chromosome is defined scientifically and legally as a male in the UK.
Edit: Still 2 sexes. One with a Y chromosome and one without. No matter what other variation.
Present Y chromosome? Male. Man He/Him
No Y chromosome? Female. Woman. She/Her
Simple. Logical definition.
