I'll be honest, maybe all this understanding and playing along is perpetuating this confusion between being something vs waishing to be be something
you are not.
When I was little, not one kid at school proclaimed to be the opposite sex/gender.
Were they too scared to claim such an utter absurdity or was there no incentives to be special, like nowadays?
We had clearly gay, effeminate or tomboy kids and at my school nobody cared. 2000 pupils, but like a village, you knew what was going on.
Whilst I will agree that there have always been people who believed they were the opposite sex to what they were born, we can all agree that they have
a major mental health problem.
The vast majority nowadays do and say and even believe this, because you get attention, special treatment and praise for saying you are trapped in
your wrong body.
It's literally the go to excuse nowadays for children who just feel weird in their changing bodies.
If this option were not available, almost no child would be confused.
The few that would be, would be so few, they'd be rightly classed as mentally ill. Even if they truly believe it, it's not a norm, it's ab-normal.
After all it is preposterous to be male in body but hate youself and wishing or believing to be the
absolute opposite.
I believe someone who has body disphoria should learn to either start making friends with their body, even if they think it's not who they are or they
should be told to wait until they are through puberty and then do what they want quietly and without confusing budding minds.
I don't want ab-normal people to be hurt or feel they can't express their beliefs, what I want is for it to stay in the ab-normal category where it
belongs.
I have learned that a lot of humans are incredibly easy to nanipulate.
Then kids on the spectrum will bwlieve all this, mutilate their bodies and then commit suicide because of their mustakes later on.
So allowing this leads to suicides just as much as disallowing it.
Simplest solution, as stated:
Treatment to not hate who they are but learn how to make the most of the cards they have been dealt.
Not ridiculing but helping.
Keeping it firmly in the realm of outliers and not making it normal, confusing others that aren't confused and know very well that there are only two
genders.
Protect the healthy of mind, help those who arent.
This is what I'd tell my child.
