Are these studies like the studies that said sugar and cigarettes were healthy?

Although, isn't transgenderism not a choice unlike consuming sugar and cigarettes?

Alcoholics and people addicted to nicotine also claim they have an disease called addiction which renders them basically unable to resist their vice. In truth everything is a choice including accepting the ludicrous idea that somehow just because you have a persistent feeling that you're a girl trapped inside a boys body then somehow that means you should pop an estrogen pill and get a frock.

You posted data about the physcial differences between trans brains and normal people's brains. You can find the same differences in the brains of alcoholics as well. This does not mean they have no choice in the matter or that it's impossible to stop drinking or that the only solution to dysphoria is radical transformative intervention so trans people can pretend to be something they're not.
