Lol, gender dysphoria is no longer considered a mental illness by the scientific or medical community, so stop with the ignorant comments. The proper treatment is gender transitioning. If anyone has a problem with something that doesn't concern them, either take it up with the medical or scientific community or take a ****ing hike. We're well into the 21st century at this point for there to be so many ignoramuses
Well, yes, if you want funding from the political machine, then you need to put on a smile and suck the **** of the homosexual mafia.
When you live in the real world, however, the above are neurological disorders.
Now, the cause of these types of disorders are varied and often case-specific. Neurology responds to chemical biasing in various growth phases as well as to its own feedback loops. Your neurology, contrary to popular dogma, is only a minor product of genetics. Neurons are what we call "adaptive networks" that use feedback loops and other such things to self-program and self-adjust to the scenario around them. This is what is called "neural plasticity" and is a concept that has been mirrored, very primitively, in computer software and even some hardware programming. There is a lot of interest in self-learning programs and circuits that self-program for a task more intuitively.
These aren't just "theories" about how the brain works. These are known, reproducible processes.
Now, generally, neurological disorders come with broad-spectrum pathological indicators. Those affecting such things as identity tend to lead to self-destructive tendencies. Depression, suicide, drug use/abuse, as well as becoming victims of human/*** trafficking - those are all common among those with gender and sexual identity/preference issues, as well as those with more general identity issues. People who struggle with fears of becoming like one parent or another often fall into this category, as well.
This underlying pathology feeds into other neurological cycles and affects numerous issues of perspective. Adaptive networks are still logical networks. Every insane person is completely and totally logical once you understand what factors are at play beneath the behavior. For example, many of these people are incapable of disassociating action and identity. "Gay" people "act a certain way" and "girls act a certain way." The idea that one's actions and cumulative behavior form the core of one's identity is a classic example of where many people will form their entire perspective of the world around a false idea.
They believe they must act a certain way in order to be of a certain identity. Case in point - this individual believes he is a girl and that in order to be a girl, he must be allowed access to a woman's restroom.
The logical root of the pathology is as obvious as it is a paradox. He believes that since he does not act as much like the other boys around him, and finds himself interested in things that are more typical of women, that he must be a girl. Since he is a girl, he must therefor dress like a girl and declare himself a girl while being allowed to do 'girl' things.
He can't simply be a male with a varied set of interests or be interested in finding a woman who will be a good partner for him. He's -got- to not just act like a girl, but become one.
It's a neurological disorder through and through. By 'accepting' it as 'normal' and even going out of our way to make it into a heroic status, we are only making the problem worse for these people. This does not mean that they should be shunned and ostracized from the community - but it does mean that it isn't normal, that it is a sign of considerable problems (usually a history of sexual abuse - every homosexual person I know was sexually abused), and that it is something that can be treated.
Anyways, this is a hard one for me to decide on. Personally, I think she should be able to use the women's restroom, but she was given the option for a neutral one, and I think it is the best compromise at the moment. Secondly, its a ****ing bathroom. A woman's bathroom. They're not going to see anything.
The only reason they get away with this is because it's a public school where people with guns show up to your house to take your kids away if you can't afford to send them to some other bin of political sperm dumps in which to indoctrinate your children.
If you had freedom in education, I can guarantee you that the schools that pull this kind of stuff would go bankrupt pretty quick.
He has a Y-chromosome. He belongs in the men's restroom. If he feels uncomfortable with it, then he needs to learn to suck it the hell up or get really good at holding it. He doesn't get to make a school of a few hundred girls as equally uncomfortable because he's a special little snowflake.
It is not functionally practical for society to make a habit of forcing everyone to pull out the knee pads and suck on the ego of every special little snowflake who can't figure out how to integrate with every other special snowflake who already has.
