    But I think gender dysphoria is a true thing, a mental disorder. I don't know how to treat it but I think it should not involve transing children and teens.

    When someone have body dysmorphia and hate their hands - doctors are not cutting their hands. They are finding distress reason and fixing it.

    When someone have anorexia - doctors are not making "no eating diet" for them. They are finding distress reason and fixing it.

    And now someone hates their penis or vagina - doctoras are making surgery to remove or replace them. They are not finding distress reason and not fixing it. So person still have distress about their body, but now they have mutilated one. Rarely it helps, but very rarely. That is why suicide rates are raising, not decreasing after surgery - because the sole reason of distress is not removed.

    Why here is different?
