yes

Yes

yes. Nobody mentally healthy butchers themselves and forces others to play along with their delusions.

Yes
Buckle up buckaroos

Obviously.

/thread

Yes, but it’s not hurting anyone tbqh

it's hurting the moral fabric of America!

Yes of course it is

"it's a beautiful procedure!"

It's a mental illness supported by the same people who think everyone deserves a participation trophy and participated by suicidal/homicidal delusional lunatics.

Lol butchers, holy shit

Yes. If I was born a man and said I sexually and mentally identify as a fire engine and wanted to cut my dick off and replace it with a siren you would call me a lunatic. Why is it ANY different if I claim to be a woman on the inside?

Yes of course it is

with Body Identity Integrity Disorder (BIID) a person believes they should have a limb like an arm or leg or foot taken off. However no ethical surgeon would ever amputate a healthy limb. They would simply say they're mentally ill and prescribe therapy and possibly drugs to fix the mental imbalance.

However because a bunch of fags kicked up a fuss in the 60's and 70's, suddenly saying trannies are mentally ill is akin to calling black people niggers. So instead, they get the blessing from medical institutions to butcher their genitals and pump their bodies full of synthetic hormones the rest of their life to simulate the look of the opposite sex. Just as nature intended.

what are your opinions on children being transgender, and what would you do as a parent if you found out your kid is trans

might be pretty cool with a siren down there though

who cares? what effect does it have on you?

You ever hear the story of Hansel and Gretel?

If they're very lucky they'll run into a witch.

It's called body dismorphia, and used to be treated as such.

Maybe if they didn't shove their bullshit ideology down our throat all the time...

moms spaghetti

yeah, because that happens so often. get a life

Story?

Yes.

Once seen a post on b talking about the trans vagina being an open wound that tries to heal. Who knew we would start creampieing open wounds in the current year.

Dude do you watch tv, listen to radio or browse on Facebook/twitter? It's fucking everywhere, and you can never argue with it without being called "transphobic"

yes, its retarded

If it is then is gay a mental illness? How about chronic drug users/drunks?

No, there's no such thing.

Believing you're transgender is a mental illness.

i don't own a TV
why are you bitching about it while posting in a bread about it? you logic funny

trips fitting a philosopher

Body Dysmorphic Disorder look it up

>mfw someone gets the truth

>telling the mentally ill they're normal and letting them run around as such
They're a danger to themselves and others. If they had anything else, we'd drug them and put them in a mental ward.

Feels they were born the wrong gender = Wants to be an inanimate object?
How does that appear to be the same thing to you. That's like saying, gays want to be in the military and shouldn't because some people maybe want to swim naked in outer space and that's impossible so let's not allow either to be a thing. It's no where near the same thing. A man being a woman is plausible. Both men and women are human beings the main difference being reproductive organs. Man wanting to be a fire truck. Not plausible. Not even fucking close.

I hear this a lot from trannies. The thing is, it does affect others. Because with acceptance comes the need for society to play along with them. Leting trannys born ben go to womens rooms and showers. Which apparently bothers a number of women. But the defacto response is "get over it". Which is dismissive and doesn't take the majorities comfort into account.

Secondly it makes other people who are, for example, working with them to play along with their delusion. They say they're women. But all the meatball surgery hormones and wish-i-may's/wish-i-mights isn't going to turn that Y into an X. And the fuss that gets kicked up if they don't call them "she", holy shit. In fact, it's become something that you can be sued for in new york, and in some workplaces is now a fireable offense. This last one has hit in 2 specific workplaces i've been employed with in the past. The first one became a huge legal shitstorm that ended with multiple H1B's from india and pakistan getitng let go because they refused to play along, especially the women sharing the bathroom with the guy (i know, they're used to shitting in the street).

If they want to play dressup and delude themselves, fine. But don't drag everyone else along for the ride. "Shut up and pretend" isn't

Then wtf is the point of having a thread about it

unsupported opinions are just like assholes...

Gay? No.

Alcoholism and addiction are deseases and are treated as such by the medical community. ...

Dude you watch tv, browse Twitter/Facebook and there’s always something...

Animal rights
The environment
Trump
Gun laws
Vegans
Etc

You need to learn to ignore the things that don’t directly affect your life, or keep getting mad about it, I’m sure that accomplishes a lot.

You're so disgusted by it and yet you have the webm's saved on your computer.....

>a man being a woman is plausible
Logic

>It's fucking everywhere
crying about it being everywhere while posting in a bread about transpeople. that's brilliant, man. no, really.

if i remember right, some tranny from south america tried to pick up a drunk guy at a bar. they went outside to do the nasty and it appears the tranny came down with a bad case of Beaten To Death when the Tranny Surprise scenario didn't work out like it did in the porno's.

Trannies are like lemmings and end up dead by suicide or murder by other trannies at an alarming rate. Or rather it would be alarming if anyone gave a shit about them.

>diseases
>mental ILLNESS

Uhhh ok? And why is gay not? Most trans are also gay.

Someone dies, picture gets taken, repressed tranny fag saves it and posts it in this thread

Yes.

I forget the psychology behind it, but something about "there's no cure for gender dysphoria, so the best thing we can do is try to make their quality of life better by yadda yadda yadda and surgery as a last resort, but it won't make their lives easier by any means."

it's hurting people suffering from gender dysphoria. i feel bad for them. some of them will never be at peace with the bodies they're in.

sometimes.

Kids go through phases. If they were sure by 14 or so, and knew all the downsides, I'd be ok with them doing what they wanted. But the "transitioning with hormone blockers before puberty" shit is asinine. Should honestly be illegal.
Overall I think we should be trying to find some way to correct the problem in the brain that leads to gender dysmorphism/dysphoria, so there's at least some other option available to attempt besides simply mutilating your junk.

this

Not to mention the only people who'd give a shit are the trannies who are in denial

>unsupported opinions
The suicide attempt rate among transgender persons ranges from 32% to 50% across the countries
ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5178031/

Again, if they had anything else we'd be putting them in a rubber room.

You know, I'm not even mad about it, I just disagree and express my opinion here. I'm just tired of this ideological indoctrination, and you're the one who says I shouldn't share my opinion

Would extreme insecurity count as a mental illness? People who change their gender or want to be the opposite sex have deep emotional issues. Being gay is an attraction to opposite sex. Changing your sex is insecurity I can’t even fathom. It has to stem from a traumatic event or a genetic mental issue. No one who has had a good upbringing does that unless they have a mental problem they can’t help.

Ah the old tired addage "if you hate something, you must secretly be it."

I guess i'm a nigger then.

not surprising when they have to deal with bigots such as yourself. :)

Theres a mental disorder where you dont feel that a limb of yours is actually yours and people have died cutting it off. I dont see any difference with this except that its your genitals

It's a social construct. Your question makes no sense. In some countries it is on a list and in other ones it isn't. Who cares? I have yet to even meet a transgender person and you probably havent met one either. It's a waste of fucking time.

It's an evolution of the human gender that has been around since humans began to understand their genders and develop gender roles. It wasn't until complex social hierarchies and religions start to come about that people even cared what you did with your life. Do I think trans people are over represented in our victim creating culture, of course. Do I think it's a mental disease to feel uncomfortable in the gender role placed upon you by a society that made those roles before any of us were even alive and has been pushing them down our throats every generation, no. Do I think sex change surgery is a good idea with our current technology, yes. Do I think taking hormones as a child is a good idea, no.

Body dysmorphic disorder. And yes, transexualism is kind of related to that.

The world is a better place without them.

Say what you will about muslim countries. They don't have to listen to trannyfags piss and moan about not being able to piss in the womens shitter. They're too busy avoiding being chucked off roofs.

Do I think sex change surgery is a good idea NO****

BIID see:

You go on a night out sleep with a trans person not knowing they are trans, you find out the next morning, do you claim rape?

yes

Nope. I call my attorney and have them call the cops to explain the dead body.

>In San Francisco, the prevalence of attempted suicide among transgender persons is 32%, among young age (

i'm trans and i wouldn't say it's a mental illness, we're just different

Did I say not to express your opinion? If you’re done playing the victim, no I did not. It’s not your opinion, it’s how you choose to express it.

>I guess i'm a nigger then.
Did you mean to walk right into it?

I would tell them to get the fuck off tumblr

No amount of booze can make a tranny look or sound like an actual woman. No amount of surgery or hormones can make that frankensteins monster pass for a woman.

>sex change is "biologically impossible"
This. Turning your penis outside in & stuffing it up inside yourself while taking female hormones does not make you biologically female. It doesn't make you start putting out female pheromones. It's a band aid at best that is more harm then good.
I'm not trying to take anything away from the suffering these people endure. I can't imagine it, it has to be horrible. But calling types of treatments that aim to fix the brain to match the body rather than the other way around bigoted & backwards doesn't help these people. Encouraging their delusions & allowing doctors & pharmaceutical companies to make mounds of cash off them by pandering to those delusions & mutilating their bodies is cruel & should be criminal. A dolphinoplasty doesn't work & neither does a sex change, and all the acceptance in the world will never change the basic fact that we're all just pretending.

Yeah mainly because when they do pass you have no idea they're even doing it.

You only know they're trans when you can tell they don't pass and then you assume all trans can't pass because the ones you've personally met don't lmao?

yes

Isn't society basically about telling people what they want to hear so they can tell you what you want to hear and you exist in a state of mutual agreement over things which aren't true to begin with anyway?

The moment I have a kid that starts talking about gender or sexuality in percentages or using anything other than "male" or "female" is the day they get a couple of hard blows to the face, their computer and phone taken away and us moving to the most bible-thumping redneck town in Mississippi that resembles the town from Footloose i can find.

>Yeah mainly because when they do pass you have no idea they're even doing it.

This has never happened in the history of this disgusting fetish.

I think there was a Supreme Court case about this a while ago. IIRC, it claimed that deceit/not disclosing biological gender prior to sex wasn't/isn't a means for pursuing a rape conviction, which is pretty fucked up.

...

I don't blame the transsexuals, they're mentally ill and don't know any better. I blame the quack doctors who actually mutilate people because of this. In 10-20 years you're going to see a generation of regret. This stuff will be looked upon by the medical community the way lobotomies are now.

I am going to be so happy when these doctors get their asses sued.

>Is being transgender a mental illness?

Do you even need to ask that question?

>Is being transgender a mental illness?

yes
or if you wish to split hair, a mental disorder

Medfag here

Personal opinion is yes. furthermore, I believe we have this exceedlingly strange culture surrounding ideas of gender. If a man identifies with feminine ideals, we tend to tell them to down estrogen and cut their dicks off. I feel someone follows through with this, surely mentally ill.

Absofuckinglutely.

Good riddance

It's hurting the transgender people themselves in that instead of legitimately helping them, we play along with their delusions and help them mutilate themselves which fills them with extreme regret when they thought the surgery would make them into a perfect woman and not some deformed freak who can't even pee properly anymore. The suicide rate is 40% for trans people which is WAY higher than any other group, and society's acceptance which supposedly should have brought that rate down, has had no effect at all.

....but that's bullshit. It is & always has been bullshit. We need LESS bullshit, not MORE, otherwise we're going to be swimming in a sea of our own manufactured waste, while every other form of life cursed to share this world with us dies off & the ecosystem of the only planet we know of proven to harbor life, period, collapses; & we die off too.
No that's not all on the trannies, that's on the bullshit we feed ourselves & perpetuate through our societal white lies.

...

>indoctrination

No it’s called bringing awareness to something that they’re suffering with. They could sit home all day and not say a word about it to anyone (which obviously isn’t healthy) OR they can discuss it with others that feel same way or don’t fully understand.

i understand that some people believe in the lgbt bullshit, and i can tolerate that, even though i think it's disgusting.

but when you as tranny lie about not having a dick in order to pass off as a woman, you're asking for an ass-kicking. they didn't have to kill the poor faggot, but a good ol' kick in the nuts is definitely justified

How do we get it to 100?

surely

Is rain wet?

What dumb fucking question. You should feel ashamed.

Haha okay. Since yall have such obvious conservative views, heres a follow up question, is gay marriage okay?

inb4 no because my skydaddy said so

correct

Nobody cares about your gay marriage, and the only ones who do are gays and the mentality disabled.
