Being trans was always there. The person just learned how to vocalize it.
You clearly dont know what you’re talking about. You do not know better than the experts who spent years in studying psychology.
It is not a mental disorder. Dsm-5 does not classify it as such.
Gender dysphoria (GD) is the distress a person experiences due to a mismatch between their gender identity—their personal sense of their own gender—and their sex assigned at birth. The term replaced the previous diagnostic label of gender identity disorder (GID) in 2013 with the release of the diagnostic manual DSM-5. The condition was renamed to remove the stigma associated with the term disorder. The International Classification of Diseases uses the term gender incongruence instead of gender dysphoria, defined as a marked and persistent mismatch between gender identity and assigned gender, regardless of distress or impairment. Not all transgender people have gender dysphoria. Gender nonconformity is not the same thing as gender dysphoria and does not always lead to dysphoria or distress
No, you’re gatekeeping. A lot of people who may regret their transition likely do so because they face a lot of transphobic ostracization from the communities they live in. Instead of saying “we need a therapist” before allowing doctors to approve medical transition, you should say we need to improve mental health access.
You’re not transgender so stop gatekeeping. Medically transitioning is still not accessible enough all around the world. We don’t need this transphobic fearmongering about “needing a therapist” when it’s often not required and can be expensive to see. The regret rate for medically transition is astonishing low, We don’t have this same concern for people seeking nose jobs or hip surgeries which have much higher regret rates.
Some studies suggest that rates of regret have declined over the years as patient selection and treatment methods have improved. In a review of 27 studies involving almost 8,000 teens and adults who had transgender surgeries, mostly in Europe, the U.S and Canada, 1% on average expressed regret. For some, regret was temporary, but a small number went on to have detransitioning or reversal surgeries, the 2021 review said.
They’re on the right track at least. It’s not a mental disorder and no one is a “freak” for not passing, also that “unbiased therapy” comment wasn’t needed.
No more excuses bird!
It is the gold standard!
5·8 days agoTo be fair I heard these talking points from republicans. The most brainwashed.
This is literally what happens when people defend first-past-the-post! “More than 2 viable choices at the ballot box is scary!” “I need my corporate politicians to protect me from using my brain”
Because it is older material.
This is literally what happened to cinemas and popcorn!
