It's only newly listed as a DSM since nutty Leftists took over the field. It used to be considered a mental disorder.

Three slappies!

My mother who had short hair was on occasion called Sir...This also occasionally happened to another friend of hers after they started to hit middle age and had gone out without makeup. They just kind of laughed it off and shook their heads as part of growing older. No one ever means to offend its just a mistake.

This is what upsets me and just about everyone i know with those who call themselves Transwhatever, its not their choice to be Transgender, which no one really gives a flying fig about but their rage at someone not necessarily treating them exactly like they want to be treated. Get over it, its few and far between that people do it as an insult or to hurt you, do what my Mother would do and just say "it's Ma'am not Sir" and laugh at the other persons embarrassment.

I hope it picks a fight with another small dude who turns out to be a Jet Li with anger issues and zero compassion, or willingness to stop the beat down.

GID has been in the DSM since the 80s and studies have been around since the 50s. It is essentially the same as Gender Dysphoria listed currently. You may not agree with the DSM listing but tons of articles (outside the DSM) support that transgenderism does indeed exist. Take DSM out of the discussion and that doesn't change anything.. Ignoring the DSM doesn't make all supporting studies and medical professionals behind them go away.

Typical dismissive "it must be leftists" mentality.... Everything you don't agree with must be lefty... shows a lack of thought... and reliance on a boogyman to establish a case (lack there of)

It's a mental disorder. As in not normal. As in these people need help, not reinforcement that the mental illness is perfectly OK.

I don't think anyone is disputing THAT.

What are the neurological and physiological causes?

There is absolutely zero evidence that one can be "born into the wrong body." My guess is that you understand quite well that changes in how transsexualism-crossdressing is regarded by the medical and psychiatric community is driven by politics, not science.

they breed this kind of stupid(dont waste your time or mine with the tired "not all" defense on this) in California.. God help Americas future
The cure for all these sick fairy tales cost about .30-.50 each. Tools that try to make this “thing” sound normal are sick as well! I’m surprised we haven’t heard the “that time of the month” excuse yet!

I do feel bad for this person.

I think somebody (maybe a friend or a family members) should reach out to her and maybe suggest some kind of professional help.

I know a biological woman who acted just like that after she received some kind of hormone treatment, (she wants to have a child in order to keep her husband). If this person is taking female hormone, maybe it is about time to adjust the dosage.

I am not an expert, nor do I know the answer. But it is obvious to me that this person is not a very happy person. I hope she can find some relief soon. I use the word "she" because maybe this is what she wanted.
