There is no such thing.

You were born a male or a female.

Very few are hermaphrodite.



When you are long dead and they find your remains, they will know you as a male or a female.

Why do you seek to redefine yourself as something else?

You were born perfect.

It takes a lifetime to get to know oneself.

Why do you reject what you are in order to identify as something other than what you were born as?


And for those who are members of this prideful group whose name is riddled with meaningless letters, why do you demand acceptance for something you know is off-putting to many?

Understand their comfort in the norm.

Do not push your oddity unto them demanding acceptance, then act surprised at backlash.

Physically altering your body with surgery or chemical injections is not the answer you seek.

It will not bring you the peace you seek.

Only knowing and accepting yourself as you are will.


This is not a reproach.

I am simply expressing myself.

I do not understand this modern movement.


I am concerned for the young who may be fooled into this mindset by the colorful parades and claims of "love and acceptance" when they display quite the contrary.


Edit: I may have meant transgender. I see no difference. I admit I am ill informed on the matter as I consider the whole thing to be of little value.

For the most part, I agree with you. But here's the thing: It's none of our business and it's not our choice how people identify. We all can argue until we're blue in the face, and it doesn't change a damn thing because people are going to think and believe whatever they think and believe. And it's none of our business. It's not our problem...

Unless and until it is made our problem with unreasonable and unacceptable demands on the rest of us. That's a problem and that's ALL we should be addressing as a nation and a society. Not whatever gender norms, gender roles, and gender stereotypes someone chooses to embrace or reject. Everyone does that every single day.

But when children are being sexualized, medicalized and marginalized, that's abuse, and demands intervention.

When babies are denied appropriate nourishment and sustenance, that's abuse, and demands intervention.

When women's spaces -- sports, awards, bathrooms, etc. -- are invaded by men who identify as women, that's abuse, and demands intervention.

When we are forced to use improper pronouns and other language to appease, that's tyranny, and demands intervention.

When women are harassed, intimidated, bullied, de-platformed, fired, and physically attacked for objecting to the trampling of their rights, dignity and safety, that's abuse, and demands intervention.

Our attention and our ire should be laser focused on abuses of the system and people. Nothing more and nothing less.

Confusing the language is part of the Trans Activist battle plan.

There was a time when transsexual (living as opposite sex after sex-reassignment surgery), transgender (living as opposite sex without sex-reassignment surgery), and transvestite (living as natal sex but enjoys dressing as opposite sex occasionally) had specific meanings.

Not so much today, as all fall under the "transgender umbrella" and are all equally "valid" as transgender identities.

Body integrity dysphoria is a psychiatric condition characterized by a persistent desire to acquire physical disability (e.g., amputation, paraplegia). Body integrity dysphoria is also termed as body integrity identity disorder, amputee identity disorder, and xenomelia.


A brief history:


In 1977, the first case of two individuals who desired to cut off their healthy limbs was reported. Earlier Body integrity dysphoria was termed apotemnophilia, and the probable reason for apotemnophilia was said to be sexually oriented.

But, later on, it was found that the patient’s desire for amputations was not only sexually-oriented but was due to several, nonsexual reasons as well.

Robert Smith was the first surgeon in the world to perform amputations on healthy individuals. Robert Smith performed elective amputations in otherwise healthy patients, one in 1997 and one in 1999.

He called this condition a disorder of body identity and reported that patients desperately wanted amputation and were happy after their transformation.


Neurological conditions:


Both psychologists and neurologists believe that Body integrity dysphoria is common in people whose brain fails to map the body correctly. Different neuroimaging techniques were utilized to assess the association of Body integrity dysphoria with other neurological conditions.
Upon analysis, it was found that patients who desire amputation have brain damage in the right hemisphere.


I don't think a young person has ever existed that wasn't unhappy with some part of their physical body. We used to help children learn to accept themselves as perfect just the way they are; now we encourage them to change whatever they don't like about their physical body.


The most common reason for amputation in body integrity dysphoria is the patient’s desire to correct the mismatch in their body. This unusual desire is due to the patient’s belief that the target limb does not belong to them.

The underlying cause of Body integrity dysphoria is still unknown, and research is going on to understand the precise cause. Scientists believe that it is mainly due to early childhood trauma, sexual arousal, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, or an over-identification with amputees.


Signs and symptoms of body dysphoria:


The common symptoms associated with Body integrity dysphoria are stress, depression, mood disorders, and anxiety.

Body integrity dysphoria is often compared with body dysmorphia. Body dysmorphia is a condition in which subjects keep thinking about their bodies negatively, which hampers their quality of life.

Anorexia nervosa was also found to have links with the Body integrity dysphoria.


[www.news-medical.net...]


“Body integrity dysphoria” (BID) is a severe condition affecting non-psychotic individuals where a limb may be experienced as not being part of the body, despite normal anatomical development and intact sensorimotor functions. Limb amputation is desired for restoring their own identity.


[www.medrxiv.org...]

Here's a very well-written, thought-provoking article:


Comparing Gender Dysphoria to Body Integrity Dysphoria, we find:

A delusion that there exists a grievous flaw in an individual’s body, sex in the case of Gender Dysphoria, “alien” appendages in Body Integrity Dysphoria.
Denial of any claim that the flaw does not exist, no matter how much evidence is presented.
An obsessive frame of mind, in which the delusion becomes the central, controlling factor of existence.
Depression and anxiety in response to the obsession.
Efforts to “correct” the problem by means of body mutilation.
Resistance to any other type of solution.
Clearly, Body Integrity Dysphoria is essentially identical to Gender Dysphoria, the only difference being the body element(s) acting as the focus.

'Trust the science' even though it's being politically changed to further an agenda-one that only enhances the lives ($$$$$) of those directing the change.

I believe that credit goes to a German in the 20's who successfully completed the operation on a few people. Then everyone got really upset and claimed he was promoting sex to children. Then the NAZI regime deemed him and everyone like him a threat to society and had them locked up and /or killed.

No human hermaphrodites ever existed on this planet--
To be a hermaphrodite you must have the repoductive organs of both sexes-- as a result you can get pregnant and be able to impregnate other humans-

Gotta get a new name for this, really.
While I don't care what you do to yourself, as long as you keep it to only you, Every time I hear trans, I only think of Transend.

So you have risen above sex?
Then it shouldn't matter what sex you are, "cause you no longer need it anyway.

Sexually confused have been used to further push the agenda of the 'elites' . That agenda has dystopian endgoals.
Their means to achieve that is to destablize society and to demoralize the people. By destroying stable roles and models they further achieve this. Roles as in male and female , models as in marriage and family .

They ideally would want us all to live alone in isolation and be genderless and mindless minions , easy to control and easy to manipulate

This is exactly what I don't get about the trans ideology when I dig down to the nitty gritty.

If I felt that my sex did not suit me, and if I wanted to "live" outside the box of norms/roles/stereotypes, I would consider it transcending those boxes and labels, and I would embrace the best of both and reject the worst of both.

Transition? Hell no! I would just do and be whatever I wanted and to hell with all the gender crap. Oh wait... I already do.

This. My belief is that there are only 2 sexes: male and female. It's called biology. Identifying as something else is psychological and you can seek out help for that.

Is this sarcasm?
..because it is false

Hermaphrodites are not all that uncommon
Hermaphrodites with both packages fully functional is very rare, but do exist.
I know a kid right now. She has testicles inside and the other part is normal.
The doctor says she won't be able to reproduce normally as an adult.
Hermaphrodites are in a bunch of weirdo porn too...someone said..lol

I find the topic interesting. Is it more than a birth defect ?
Or could it be an adaptation?

I can’t remember who said it but if you put 1 man and 99 women on a deserted island and come back in 100 years you’ll find a thriving community. If you put 1 man and 99 “trans-women” on the same island and come back in 100 years you’ll find 100 dead male skeletons.

Pure fantasy land woke culture libtard BS, the whole damn movement is a bunch of crazy eyed perverts and privileged morons that have never had to live in the real world.

So far I haven't been able to trace it farther back than 1977.


Since 1977, case reports and group studies have been produced, trying to understand the cause of this unusual desire.


[www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...]

I'd be interested to read any links you have going back farther.

OP..
Sexual dimorphism – the biological or physical difference between the sexes of a species – is reportedly so slight in the skeleton of a human that the margin of error can be exceptionally high.
professionals are aware “biological sex exists on a spectrum, of which skeletons and the sexual variation they show is only one part of a greater whole.
“They also understand that the assessment of sex using skeletons is not 100 per cent accurate and this analysis may not align with an individual’s biological sex or gender identity.”

ATSU assistant professor and biological anthropologist Caroline VanSickle says that professionals often cannot say with any certainty if an individual was male, female or other just by looking at their bones.

“We can offer a fairly educated guess, but even then we sometimes get the answer wrong or end up with inconclusive results,” VanSickle says.

She added there is currently “limited data” on how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) affects bone structure, which makes it even more tricky to define the facts about a centuries-old skeleton.

Point is that view is now a in accurate one.

What's going on now is nowhere near organic. Rarely is the question asked, "How did we get here in the first place?" My brief take:

The public education system has warped our society into an immoral, deluded abomination of it's former self. Granted before, we weren't perfect by any means, but we had defining roles and dignified boundaries. We SHUNNED anything that would hurt or harm a child and now you see people actually debating it.

The US Department of Education has absolutely gutted this country's capacity for common sense and rational thought. They have created the land of make believe and we as a society are sunk unless there's an immediate line drawn. I think it's starting to unravel but it's hard to break a generation with 12+ years of hard conditioning.
