So you THINK that NOBODY can tell the difference between a natural born female and a facsimile?
You're kidding right? It's truly 100% of the time so painfully obvious that these men are masquerading, women can always tell who's a natural born female. There's only some men who have the hardest time telling us apart. Don't sit there and think that because you "think you hit the lottery" on your facsimile that nobody can tell she's not really a he.
The first dead giveaway is the hyper-feminine mannerisms. That gives them away 100% of the time.
The second dead giveaway is the skull shape. Next are the hands and physical bone structure hip angle and knee angle, foot size and shape. There are definite clues if you know what to look for.
Then comes the way they present themselves with makeup and clothing.
What's the name of the "recent study" you are referring to?
Was that done by the Church of Scientology too?
People "only need help and understanding/compassion" ???
How many people with mental illnesses have you spent time with?
What does the church of scientology have to do with anything I said?
Ive spent time with many mentally ill people. And Ive spent time with them on many different occasions, Im not sure why that would make a difference.
And since antidepressants/ssri's really are usually ineffective for most people, the only thing that can truly help them is understanding and compassion. .
my statement was simply based on an article I read a few months ago.
I'm not part of Scientology either. And I agree with you. There are no effective measures in changing transgendered people. You just have to let them be who they are.
And the marketing of mental illness is mostly to increase net sales/bottom line for the big wigs in the pharmacy industry.

cant recall the article I read it in as I read it back in January, but they did change many of the diagnosing methods and definitions, in addition to adding new disorders to make them more distinctive from existing disorders.
So not 360 new disorders in the last year alone? Was the article on a Scientology related site? Or NARTH?
If there was effective pharmacology to change the transsexual's brain so they would not want to be a transsexual and they wouldn't feel conflicted inside anymore do you think they would take it?

still not quite sure what all these wild suppositions about NARTH and scientology are about but anywho, no it was published in Psychology Today, and it discussed the fact that many people/patients are upset at all of the new inclusions and alterations made to the diagnosis code in the upcoming issue of the dsm or whatever. People are concerned that creating that many new diagnoses will lead to over diagnosing and overmedicating by psychiatrists/psychologists. Its a fairly common complaint of the new code book, Im surprised you're so skeptical. I wish I could provide the exact article that claimed it proposed adding 360 (it actually said 365) new diagnosing methods and disorders.

They already are overdiagnosed and overmedicated. That is blatant.

I can tell you that would be a 'no.'
