Are you claiming they said uncoached at a young age girls referred to themselves as boys and boys referred to themselves as girls? From what age was this? And there was no discussion prompted and led by adults preceding their coming out?
Gender dysphoria, previously gender identity disorder, has been in the DSM for over 40 years. It is no different from PTSD, depression and anxiety disorders which also have their diagnostic criteria in the DSM. To be consistent, the cure for all of those is “a correct truthful understanding of reality.” Like I’ve said, classic conservative views. They are byproducts of mental weaknesses rather than true disorders.
Well, I can believe them - the people who’ve actually experienced it - or I can believe you, who speaks purely from a position of ignorance and prejudice.
And yours seems a typical dyswoke approach. Deny any responsibility for one’s own condition. Blame someone or something else for a person’s misery and fight against that false cause on behalf of the unhappy one. It creates a nice co-dependent relationship.
Yes. Gender dysphoria is a true disorder, but the proposed dyswoke therapy is misguided and misguiding imho.
Yes. The children should take responsibility for their own condition. Don’t blame someone or something else, like parents or lack of “coaches” for their misery. The children need to realize this is their fault and deal with it.
Lovely. I’m sure that approach works equally well with the other conditions I’ve listed. Especially when they occur in children. I guess we live in a time of weak children that want to blame others for their misery. It’s a shame.
