Again, we are talking about less than 1% of the population.

Why don't you ask them what they'd prefer?
I'll guarantee you if given the opportunity to have their own private bathroom they would willingly prefer that over the use of multi occupant bathrooms.

Why the hell is this even a Topic?
People need to grow some and realise this is all crap.

My daughter spoke in complete sentences when she was 2 years old. She also knew what a woman was at age 2.
Speaking generally, girls tend to be verbal earlier than boys. It makes sense that this trans child has the brain of a girl.

My family say I said my first word at 6 months and was able to hold a simple convo at 2, Ive never related as a girl.
Thinking your a girl when your a boy or vice versa is delusional, knowing your a boy but wanting to be a girl or vice versa is just messed up and to me says you have a mental disorder.
Encouraging Trans people and telling them theyre women the way some people in society would like us too seems the exact same thing as telling anorexic people theyre fat, these people need serious help and not SJW type morons encouraging their delusions and gender dismorphia

The majority of the professional medical, psychiatrist, psychological and public health experts disagree with your opinion.

Gender dysphoria is not a mental illness, and it is not a disorder.
Then why is it listed in the Diagnostic & Statistical Manual Of Mental Disorders, otherwise known as DSM-5?
originally posted by: IkNOwSTuff
Medical science is very clear, when you dispute that and muddy the water with the alledged 58 genders or whatever it is now youve completely left the realms of science and are walking in the forest of feelings
Read what the entry actually says and report back to us, since you bring it up.
Also, check out what the APA (you know, the group of professionals who publish the Manual) have to say about transgender rights and issues.

When someone says "generally speaking", that means there are always exceptions.
And what would be the treatment you would recommend for people with gender dysphoria, since you seem to be an expert on it? Do you have stats on the success of this treatment of yours?

Can you not see the hypocrisy in making someone feel unsafe so that someone else can feel comfortable?
What gives you the right to decide what is normal and what isn't?
I see your issue is specifically with transgendered men, think their gross..right?
Do you believe in a God, aliens, ghosts, what if someone told you that you were delusional and that people should not encourage your delusions.
Would you be angry? Would they be wrong? Who got to decide for you, in what you can believe in?
In thinking that some people are delusional about thinking what sex they are, you are also saying that people had a choice at one point in their life.
Tell me when did you decide you preferred to be a man/woman?
Did you experiment, in order to make that choice or was it just there?
You are most likely going to say no one or nothing decided what sex you were or identified with, now use that same thought process with how transgendered people grew up thinking, it is not a hard concept to understand.
Call it wired wrong, call it nature, call it whatever..it is what they believe and they have no choice in the matter.
