I have no problem respecting them as living, breathing people, but I will not feed their delusion. It is not a physical gender issue, it is a mental health issue - some sort of mental abnormality, like AD(H)D, BPD, Schizophrenia, etc. It is just an extreme form of body dysmorphia (they even call it gender dysmorphia). So why are we being forced to feed this delusion? Why are we mutilating people because of their mental illness? When someone has a mental illness, do we help them hurt themselves or others? No. We give them medication and therapy to try and get their system to function correctly. So why do we not do the same for trans people? It is not the same as being gay/les/bi/etc. That is physical and/or romantic attraction. That is not mental illness. Thinking your body is wrong or that you're in the wrong body is. We need to stop treating it medically, and start treating it psychologically. Regardless, they are human beings and should be treated as such, with all the rights that go along with it.

Edit: How about instead of downvoting and telling me to fuck off, you answer my questions? I'm serious. I want to know why so many people get hostile when this shit is asked. Is it that hard to accept reality?

Oh, and as someone that's part of LGBQA, I find it really strange that Trans is included in that since it's gender and not sexuality. Especially when so many trans people complain about being fetishized.
