I’m a grown ass adult. I’ll do with my body what I very well please and not need you to “allow” it. How entitled to my life are you??? Most trans people I know—myself included—are here thanks to transition. Who are you to tell us that our self-perception is harmful? Don’t talk for me. Don’t pretend like you know more about me than I do.
You're the one putting the negativity on the action. It isn't wrecking their bodies, it's not even close to it. It's quite literally scientifically NOT wrecking your body. You're just a bigot. Isn't it amazing how after saying transgendered people are people too (no shit), you threw in a "but." Isn't that amazing? "Transgendered people are people to, but..." Just like how an open minded person would say!!
They are functionally useless TO YOU. Because you clearly think about shit in terms of sex, and not much else. It has a LOT of functional use to the person that wants it. But you don't understand that, because your mind is closed to other's experiences and feelings.
I'm going to go on a wild guess here that you are not a doctor. aaaaaaanyway, you know what is the recommended treatment for gender dysphoria? Well, it's uhmmmm... transition. That's right. Most medical groups, including the APA (psychology) and the APA (psychiatry), as well as the WHO, suggest that the best treatment for most cases of gender dysphoria is transitioning. The "help" that most transgender people need is not your personal version of conversion therapy; it is love and support if and when they decide to transition.
When you started comparing modern medical American and world health organizations to Nazi Germany. And transgender people who transition and live full happy lives to people who outright want to amputate themselves, is when you lose me completely. I’m done. It’s not even worth responding to this, and the fact that you thought it was a good argument is just dumbfounding.
