If people that claim to be trans actually were to undergo a medical diagnosis, with CT scans, etc, then the trans movement would have at least some credibility.
Research on the Transgender Brain: What You Should Know
If you wanted to have credibility you should of at least done some research to discern this answer for yourself.
However, in most cases a person simply makes the declaration, I'm trans, non-binary, etc. and the "medical/psychological professionals simply "affirm" the person's self diagnosis.
Considering how little you've already admitted to actually knowing about this subject I'm going to require a link to proof of your claims before I take any of them as serious.
I do believe that some people actually have gender dysmorphia. I don't believe most of the people caught up in the trans dogma actually have gender dysmorphia.
I'm less interested in what you believe and more interested in what you can prove, objectively, since that was your original premise.
I also question whether surgery and hormone treatment is the best course of action for those that have real gender dysmorphia, but if they want to transition as adults I have no problem with that. Many children grow out of it when they grow up, so it probably isn't wiz
Well that would depend on a case by case basis to be determined by the patient and their physicians.
There is objective truth. Almost all people fall into the category of biologically male or biological female. We don't need 7 billion different genders for 7billion different personalities.
This attempt at the okey doke is less effective when we scroll up and read your previous post. What you claimed was that objective morality exists, what you are describing now is physiology, not morality.
Some places/legal jurisdictions are allowing people to have the sex on their birth certificates changed. Men claiming to be real woman and woman claiming to be real men because that's how they "identify". Some claim to be neither, nonbinary.
And? Your drivers license and birth certificate are not scientific journals, they are social identifiers. Imagine a police officer getting an APB for a suspect, looking up their info and seeing it identifies them as a man when they've already transitioned and look like a woman.
If people kill themselves because I refuse to agree with them, then I guess they are just going to die. I refuse to succumb to such blackmail.
The thing with your claims is that they start out with a giant
IF because you aren't making arguments based on facts but your feelings and imagination. Has anyone killed themselves simply because you refused to agree with them? Is that something you've experienced?
When the so called "scientific" claims define a woman as "anyone who identifies as a woman" and a man as "anyone identifies as a man" that is simply Trans Dogma using circular definitions.
The actual claim is that the term woman and man refers to social constructs which are mutable. They can mean whatever we want them to mean. Biology consists of objective physiological truths that can be observed and measured. Social constructs are like deck chairs we can rearrange on a whim to fit whatever social setting we need whether it's a round robin AA meeting or a front facing lecture. You can look at it like another social construct, legal vs illegal alien. An illegal alien isn't a biological claim, it a social designation that only makes sense in the context of nations and its citizens vs foreigners and their status can change if society changes like granting them deciding to grant them citizenship. Now suddenly they aren't illegal anymore.
There have been an explosion of people claiming to be Trans/Nonbinary. This geometric growth of people "suffering" from dysphoria in my opinion is due to social contagion, not true gender dysphoria which should be along the order of 1 in 10,000 people.
Considering all the specious and uniformed claims you've made here, imagine how much your opinion matters to me.
