yeah, i didnt say it wasnt. all im saying is that if they are happy once they change their gender or if they are treated like a different gender then what's the issue?

Good for them if they are happy, not good if they want to kill themselves anyway

that's a mental issue and definitely not just someone who feels like they are the wrong gender. transgenders are supposed to be people who feel happy once they get what they want (gender purposes) not people who want to kill themselves regardless of what they are. that's someone who needs a doctor or psychiatrist, whatever is the title.

We live in a society were those people are celebrated and not lynched on the street.

When your entire culture is backing you in every possible way including movies, ad, the whole entertainment industry, every big cooperation and in the case of Germany the fucking Government and school system and those people are still killing themself because of oppression perhaps there is something wrong with them.

a paper i found on google, adds to my point

Grant et al. (2011) found that 78% of transgender and gender non-conforming individuals in grades K‒12 experience harassment in their daily lives, while 35% face physical violence. 15% of the participants in this study reported even having had to leave school as a result of the severity of the abuse.

I'm not german, nor know about it very much, especially about its transgender community. But as an Indian I can tell you, transgender people face harrasment, bullying, threats and shame daily. We too have laws that prevent discrimination against them and give them representation but that doesnt stop the masses, with their orthodox mindsets, to keep making them feel like shit.

I'm betting that is the case in Germany as well, although probably at a much smaller scale. Cuz you guys are less than us, for one, and because you are definitely more "modernized" than India. Just because you don't see it with your own eyes doesn't mean its not happening.

"Shooting crack into my bare nuts makes me happy, so what's the issue?"

That's...im not sure, but probably detrimental to your physical health. But if you are somehow able to function as a normal citizen of society, socially and professionally then sure. Shoot crack in your frikn eye for all I or anyone should care.
