Everything you have said so far is your proof. Delusional people need to be told they are delusional. We have circled back around to your previous question about medication and delusion enabling.

i can go tell someone they’re delusional even if they’re not. just because someone says something about someone else doesn’t mean it’s true. it’s not a delusion dear lord

So, in your mind… grown men can just decide one day that they are woman. They can go into female locker rooms. They can join the UFC and fracture three womens skulls. Perfectly acceptable? Not delusional?

no. i don’t think being transgender is a choice. so now man just goes “i am now transgender” and goes through the strenuous journey of socially and possibly medically transitioning. i’m sure there are examples of women who are obviously more powerful unfairly beating their components?

So, you don’t think someone has to make the choice to go through transition? Almost everything in life is a choice. Not everyone with gender dysphoria transitions. Not everyone that transitions has gender dysphoria.

that’s very true. i’m not a trans medicalist. it’s a choice to transition it’s not a choice to be trans. what i meant before was sometimes it’s a necessity for mental and physical health.

It’s extremely unhealthy physically. Your lifespan decreases. It doesn’t help mental health. I sent two verified studies showing there is no decrease in suicide ideation. Even with this… adults should be able to transition whenever they want. I don’t care. It’s your life. Your life should not be held on a pedestal above others. That’s an incredibly selfish mentality. Why should your feelings be more important than the actual rights or women?

it actually does, i don’t know where you got your studies. also, just in anecdotes, trans people have been shown to have better mental health after transitioning. it’s not just a feeling. if a woman is 6”1 does she just feel like she’s tall? no she is tall

You are incorrect. The feelings have shown to be short term. My sources are the United States government (nih.gov/National library of medicine) that uses the Swedish peer reviewed long term study and a well respected peer reviewed academic science journal that released a new study about a month ago. I sent both links. The Swedish study shows a higher suicide ideation ten years after transition.

Height is an immutable characteristic. Trans is not. Trans is the opposite of immutable by definition.
