Probably because transition is pretty effective and has high satisfaction.
It doesn't matter which one holds more merit
Choosing to value emotion over fact is harmful to society
Why the fuck is the suicide rate so high for transgender people then
It is my subjective truth that gender roles are meaninglessExcept I don't force it on anyone I've said many times in this thread that you don't have to care whether I think being transgender is good or notJust don't, for the millionth time, force your ideals on society
So the amount of which something has a more factual and empirically verified basis is irrelevant to you?
The fact is that mental health is about improving overall emotional well-being as long as it coincides with a sustainable model and doesn't interfere with health in other areas. The fact is that transition is a well documented procedure for a well documented condition. The fact is that trans people are worse off right now if they don't try to transition.
Because it isn't perfect and still needs a lot of improvement. Passability is going to drastcally effect results as people on the negative end of that spectrum are going to experience a lot of negative social repercussions that can result in them losing swathes of their social network.
Don't act like suicide rates with transition or those who do not transition are the same. I've only seen citations on pre and post-op SRS.Let's not neglect to mention that people who choose not to transition also probably choose not to identify as trans, and can go uncounted if they inevitably kill themselves from depression.
You were just trying to use your subjective truth as a means to say no one should care about gender in a social context.
Oh my God is this thread really still here?
