they don't. many of these people have severe problems other than just the dysphoria.

it's not good for society. you normalize that behavior, allow them to groom confused kids, and you end up with a whole generation worth of people who mutilated themselves (or worse) for no reason. a huge majority of these people were heavily abused as children, probably by the same people they become. you'd be mistaken to think they don't have my sympathy. but for a very different reason.

the entire older generation of trans people fight HARD for trans rights because they're projecting. they are all severely depressed and seem to think that if they had only transitioned earlier they would look like they wanted to and the whole world would be sunshine and rainbows. it's dilusional.

Goodness me. Have you even ever met someone who is trans? Chances are you have and you didn't know because they're terrified of literally being beaten to death because of that.

Please see my above post because I don't want to go through it all again .

I think i've said this before, but i worked with people who had gender identity
disorder. it was pure hell. everything about them was chaos. the company
would try to work around them and it was almost impossible. the people had a
lot of personality disorders. i really think that in some cases this gender
identity program is a symptom of their other issues.

anyways, having these people created huge problems unless they somehow got them
away from other people and got them in a cushy position with little interaction
with others.

You may want to define "older generation" here. There seem to be plenty of
50+ trans people (and some younger ones) who feel like they fought for
personal rights but are now very unhappy about what others are doing. They
really don't like the idea of people being transitioned before they are
adults and old enough to understand, they don't like the idea of people
self-diagnosing themselves, they understand that they are still (as far as
an anthropologist would be concernd) a biological male, they don't like all of
the mysogyny and invasion of womens' space that some are pushing for, and
they are worried that all of this "dilusional" behavior will ultimately erode
the rights they now have.

If you pay attention, a lot of the folks who are fighting the fight now are
not trans. They may have a older child who is (or thinks they are), or
they may have a confused youngster who they (the parent) thinks is trans
but has never been diagnosed. Others are just maybe well meaning folks who
are parroting what their social/political leaders tell them.

There are people who really do have gender dysphoria and, for them, the
gender reassignment path is likely the most correct one. For others,
especially those who self-diagnose, that gender dysphoria could be a symptom
of something undiagnosed that, if diagnosed and treated, could make the
dysphoria go away.
