Aleks (2016-08-03 17:11:28)Mental disorders are typically defined with causing disability or distress in the person. The only way a transgender person will feel distress is from literally not clearing their dysphoria. Why would hormone therapy and sex reassignment surgeries even be allowed if they caused so much harm to a person like you think they do?

BirdJesus (2016-08-03 17:17:02)"It doesn't hurt their bodies"
Except for the parts where they mutilate their genitals and inject foreign chemicals that rearrange how their body works.

Aleks (2016-08-03 17:23:34)And it doesn't severely hurt their bodies. Yes, they're changing themselves, and like any operation on anything, there would be physical pain for a small period of time, but it does not physically pain their bodies for life or anything. Reparative therapy--trying to revert a transgender person into identifying with their bornew sex--has clinically failed over the years and is far more destructive than any hormone therapy or reassignment surgery could possibly be.

In what way is it more destructive than physically altering the body? Did his feeling get hurt when the doctor said "you're not a woman, Jerry?"
There is nothing beneficial from sex reassignment surgery or hormone therapy. It's simply an extremely advanced form of denial with serious consequences.

Aleks (2016-08-03 17:40:59)Lemme just put this here.

There's a convenient little section on the topic of whether transgenderism is a mental disorder like you're so convinced it is. You can feel free to read it or I can copy/paste the entire section for you. Your choice.
Of course you'd never know how mentally destroying it'd be to undergo reparative therapy, but it is clinically seen as destructive and is a discredited practice. You should ask a doctor. They'll tell you the same thing.
Saying nothing is beneficial from sex reassignment surgery or hormone therapy is untrue. Regarding transgenderism, the only thing close to even being a mental disorder is the gender dysphoria, and in regards to disorders, it's on par with depression and anxiety. You're trying to discredit the cure for the only part of transgenderism that can slightly count as a mental disorder.

BirdJesus (2016-08-03 17:45:10)Sex reassignment is not a "cure." It is denial of the reality of your sex. There is no other way to go about it, unless you believe gender and sex are exclusive and not mutually connected. Biological sex informs gender, and society is built upon the family, which consists of a man and a woman, who use their biological functions to create a child.

Aleks (2016-08-03 17:57:50)I guess you missed the definition of gender.
"the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones)."
Social, rather than biological. Gender is something that is taught. It's taught from things like behavior. Your biological sex refers to your EXPECTED gender. Not everyone is cisgender, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. Therapy and surgery is the most impactful help for curing gender dysphoria.
Also saying society is built on family, etc. is you just defining gender roles, and while gender roles are important for telling people how they should act, they're also not important at all and don't define how anyone is required to act at all. This isn't the 1950's, people aren't defined by gender roles.

BirdJesus (2016-08-03 18:00:46)Gender roles are inherit in nature. In the case of humans, women are the caretakers of children and men are the caretakers of the women.

BirdJesus (2016-08-03 18:16:25)Close-minded, huh? How is being against people harming themselves close-minded?

There's nothing negative and unhealthy about hormone therapy or sex reassignment surgeries. It doesn't hurt their bodies and they do it to clear gender dysphoria. It certainly helps them a tremendous bunch and certainly isn't hurting you.
