You are stating certain medical opinions as if they are fact. We haven't found the root of attraction and can't rule out life experience as a factor in sexual attraction. As for " being offended by trans people" i'm not going to treat them like the sec they think they are. Just as the scizo on the corner, i'm going to treat them as someone who lives a delusional reality. Ruling out treatment for GD is ridiculous. Just pacifying them isn't an answer. I'm not suggesting therapy, i'm suggesting a greater level of research in places like mental wards. As for comparing it to black and gay, the difference is it literally is a choice you make. You have to purposely pass yourself off as something you weren't born as. As for " exploiting" a race, the north made great profit off southern slavery, even going so far as to restrict southern trade with other countries. ****ing hypocrisy
You're not understanding. Reassignment surgery is the treatment for gender dysphoria. There are other treatments, but surgery is the most successful and benefitting treatment as 80-90% of people who undergo such treatments are happier afterwards. This is outlined in the Journal of Transgenderism, which is a medical journal frequently cited. I would link you the specific page, but I'm on my phone. An easy way would be to look on the GD page of Wikipedia and look at the references.
Anyways, you're illogically comparing it to mental disorders such as Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder, which you simply cannot do. GD is strictly biological in the sense that the causes lie in brain structure and hormones. For example, males and females have different brain structures. A male with GD has portions of his brain structure in common with a normal female, and it is the same for women with GD and males. Again I would link you to the exact study, but it is best to look at the references on Wikipedia.
What you're suggesting is either medication, which in most cases does not cure GD, or rewiring someone's brain structure, which is impossible. Also, it isn't as simple as a choice. People without GD do not have a natural predispositon to the opposite gender. You have to understand that they naturally feel like the other gender in the same way that we feel like we're in the right gender. We can't choose to want to be the other gender because it wouldn't feel natural to us. If you can't wrap your head around that concept, then you're being willfully ignorant because the entire medical community has accepted these notions.
Unless you want to make a separate thread about the confederate flag, then I'd stop because your comparison already failed, and there's nothing else to be said.
