you ain't fucking born in the wrong body

why aren't they born in the wrong body?

If ppl truly have messed up gender identity, it's likely psychological with altered brain activity and structure. Their brain is wired to believe they're the opposite sex. So their body is supposed to be the opposite sex.

If you want to change their brain, rather than they're body, then you're essentially changing the identity of that person.

A pig who thinks it's a chicken is still a pig.

Are people with multiple personality disorders supposed to have more than one body because their oh-so-sacred IdENtiTy tells them their meant to? Delusion is delusion. We are our bodies regardless of what the misfirings of an unhealthy brain have to say about it.

Actually, if people are messed up, they have four individual personal options, with shades between, not counting externalities:

1) Try to change the body.

2) Try to change the mind.

3) Try to change the mind and the body.

4) Try to change nothing.

Regardless, we all should try to deal with things peacefully (rather than implode/explode our communities and society).
