i lean toward having trans people in the "mental disorder" category
I won't be bitching about what you said at all. It's a fair misconception to make if you don't know much about transgenderism. However, I'd like to say that the consensus reached by medical professionals states otherwise. According to the APA, "A psychological state is considered a mental disorder only if it causes significant distress or disability. Many transgender people do not experience their gender as distressing or disabling, which implies that identifying as transgender does not constitute a mental disorder. For these individuals, the significant problem is finding affordable resources, such as counseling, hormone therapy, medical procedures and the social support necessary to freely express their gender identity and minimize discrimination."
You're not a woman, sorry
Eh, you can still treat trans women like women. It's not hard
That's life, you know?
Just because life sucks doesn't mean that we have to accept it.
