It's been more than 10 years. The best treatment we have is supporting them to transition to live as the gender they are.

Sterilization doesn't have to be a part of that.

It's been more than 10 years

In terms of understanding the psychological and social impact of encouraging people to transition, 10 years is early days. We are only now being allowed to see the horror stories and tales of regret on mainstream media without it being censored or called anti-trans.

The best treatment we have is supporting them to transition

It's not the best treatment for body integrity identity disorder to allow them to amputate their limbs. It is also not the best treatment for schizophrenics to encourage them to do what the voices tell them. Mental health problems have never been successfully treated by encouraging physical alterations that result in permanent inability to reproduce and has reduced lifespan by decades.

to live as the gender they are.

To live as the gender they want to be, or believe they should be.

Sterilization doesn't have to be a part of that.

This has literally been the push from governments, medical institutions, specialists, activist groups and woke parents who wish they had a girl instead of a boy.

We are only now being allowed to see the horror stories and tales of regret on mainstream media without it being censored or called anti-trans.

Nevertheless it is the best treatment we have in the vast majority of cases.

It's not the best treatment for body integrity identity disorder to allow them to amputate their limbs.

I'm not across what the best treatment for DIID is. What is it?

I notice that people who self amputate have good outcomes psychologically: https://opus.bsz-bw.de/msh/frontdoor/deliver/index/docId/37/file/BIID_successful_Wannabes.pdf

It is also not the best treatment for schizophrenics to encourage them to do what the voices tell them.

True. Also irrelevant.

Mental health problems have never been successfully treated by encouraging physical alterations that result in permanent inability to reproduce and has reduced lifespan by decades.

Are you certain that BIID doesn't have a physical cause?

To live as the gender they want to be, or believe they should be.

The brain is who you are. If you transplant a brain into a body, you don't save the life of the body.

This has literally been the push from governments, medical institutions, specialists, activist groups and woke parents who wish they had a girl instead of a boy.

Difficult to believe. Can you link me to:

1) Some governments pushing this
2) Some medical institutions pushing this
3) Some specialists pushing this. (Do you mean medical specialists?)
4) Parents pushing this

Because I've never seen any of those.

The brain is who you are.

Oh boy do you have a lot to learn. Your brain is actually a VR interface limiting you to this world and this body. Because this is a simulation or dream of some sort, almost beyond a shadow of a doubt.
