ITT: Transsexuals. Is it a mental illness - and if so, why isn't it treated as such?

Also, I know a few transsexuals who often say 'I just felt like a girl/guy ever since I can remember'.
How would they know that for sure, at all? How would they know what that other gender actually feels like?

Not attacking, not b8, just asking a question.

Transgirl here. For the record I never felt like a girl. I just always wanted to look like one. After a while of presenting this way people started treating me as such. So you could say that now I "feel" like one, but I honestly feel like the same person. I just chose to look a certain way and it happens to make me look like a girl.

Yes, it's no different than a skinny person who views themselves as a fat pile of shit.

> and if so, why isn't it treated as such?

Because of social stigma. Society has grown so soft that we're afraid to tell anyone that they might be wrong because it might be construed as whatever-phobic. It's probably the over-compensation from when the treatment for homosexuality was to perform lobotomies and give them electro-shock.

>How would they know that for sure, at all? How would they know what that other gender actually feels like?

They don't, and they can't.

The big elephant in the room about transsexuals is how they view and interpret the gender as being something completely superficial. For them, being a woman is as simple as going for shopping for clothes and make-up, that's literally all it takes, chopping off your dick and poisoning yourself with hormones is totally optional.

Oh, but some men will claim to have a "woman's brain", you know that elusive walnut-sized speck of nothing that is 60% hysterical emotions, 20% mooching off your husband and 20% fascination with sparkly things including diamonds and unicorns.

Look at any tranny thread on /b/ and 100% of them are acting "feminine" by being retarded cum-holes, that's how tranny men view women and femininity. It's really no different than a white guy painting his face black and going OOGAH BOOGAH YALL I GOT A NIGGA'S BRAIN WHERE THE FRIED CHICKEN & WELFARE AT
>>
>>562575085

Transexualism is a product of the confusion of identity young people have combined with the society/culture that says 'everything is okay' and 'you should be proud of your confusion'.

To the point where confused men are mutilating their genitals because they're encouraged to be whoever they wanted to be.

Men are men, women are women. Men procreate with women and vice versa.

Anything outside that is a biological deficiency. I believe anyone should be allowed to do what they want, but they shouldn't be encouraged to get a permanent operation based on gender confusion.

"The American Psychiatric Association permits a diagnosis of gender dysphoria if the criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th Edition), or DSM-5, are met."

Yes it's a mental disorder.
And its not treated as such because... *drum roll* that would be oppressing people that aren't white, straight and male. And remember the golden rule of the western world in 2014..

It's wrong to oppress someone unless they're straight, white and male.

It's not a mental illness after your transition because transitioning is the cure. I now get to live a normal happy life. As for how I knew or how do I feel? Basically, femininity/masculinity is a spectrum. I just happen to fall on the very feminine side of that. You can use what ever pro-nouns you want too but it's not going to suddenly make me act masculine!

Transsexuality, and to a lesser (and therefore more common) extent, homosexuality, are both just the inversion of the male sexuality upon itself. It's when the sexual subject is confused as the sexual object, or vice versa.

It's just basic sexual confusion. The problem is that people who agree with LGBT for some reason are simply incapable of separating the concept or denotation of sexual confusion from the connotation. They think of sexual confusion as some emotionally negative thing, rather than simply looking at it through a pure and clinical definition.


Treatment of these people has failed because of how important sexuality is to the fundamental identity of the individual, and how to violate one's sexual trajectory is essentially to extinguish the identity of that person. It's not that curing homo/transsexuality is impossible, it's just that it gets in the way of other things.

Religious therapy, when it's actually successful, works because it furnishes the subjective with a new, religious identity to compensate for his destroy previous identity. But because religious therapy became somewhat obsolete due to the irrelevant fact that it's not an analytical process (but a synthetical one) (i.e. it's not fundamentally scientific), the perception of it has faltered and its possibility of success has therefore faltered as well.


Whether or not we can cure homo/transsexuality is literally based on nothing else other than whether or not society believes it's curable.

Explain to me how I'm wrong.

On one hand, you have a mental illness whose "treatment" is to simply give into the symptoms, and on the other hand you have mental illness who are treated with a mix of therapy and psych medication.

As the other anon said. When a schizophrenic believes he's Napoleon, we pump him with antipsychotics. We don't hand him a sabre and a funny looking hat.

I guess unless schizophrenic wannabe Napoleons unite and start schizophrenic Napoleon support groups & lobbies and parents decide to have their children identify as Napoleons at birth.

Femininity and masculinity is spectral in the same way that success itself is spectral. That you can't grasp that shows exactly why you are transsexual rather than not. You think that because it's a spectrum, this means it's okay to be in between and to not strive towards a polarity (an ideal), but in reality that it's on a spectrum only implies what is already obviously understood as the fact that one can more or less, i.e. relatively speaking, fail to appear/be masculine or feminine. That space in between is just a space of mechanical failure.

Then, why it's impossible for a man, who is historically not Napoleon, to be considered Napoleon.

What about trans-ethnic? Is it possible for a white person to have the brain of an Asian person? What about otherkin? What if I identify as a wolf and feel as though I was born in the wrong species? Does THAT cross the line into insanity? How come you draw the line at sex?

Because I knew I was a girl since pre-school is why I'm transgender.

No, I have come to accept that I'm majority feminine with a small part masculine. I used to hate the small parts of me that were masculine but accepting them has allowed me to enjoy myself a whole person. Accepting myself was hard to do but I'm now able to enjoy my life and role in society as a female.

>>562583436

No, you cannot 'believe' you are the opposite 'gender'. That's not gram/pragmatically correct.

Gender is nothing but a description of the prescription which is sex. You therefore cannot identify as gender. You do not identify through descriptions. You identify through prescriptions. I can't identify as a 'pizza-eater', that provides no significant nature as to the reality of my being, and it therefore does not satisfy the logical requirements entailed under identification.

For a person to identify as a gender is to do nothing more than describe themselves as that gender, in which case the reality of the situation of their identity is that they're prescribing themselves as the gender which they originally are, but simply with the caveat that they 'feel' as though they were the opposite gender.

That's as far as it's logically possible to go with identifying as gender. In other words it's not possible. You need to understand that logically speaking 'identifying through gender' is a clear oxymoron.

I think people attach way too much emotion to this issue either way.

On the one hand, wanting to be female when your male or vice versa isn't a big god damn deal. We all wish we saw something else when we look in the mirror. I wish I was a cyborg with interchangeable hands and rocket boosters and a chrome finish. Where the fuck is my special interest group? Being transgendered doesn't make you special, it just makes you a person who wants something different from what society tells you that you should want. Big fucking whoop.

But on the other hand.

Dude wants to be a chick, we have the technology to make him into something pretty reasonably approximating a chick... and this is... bad? Dude wants a vagina, give him a vagina. Vaginas for everybody. What's the big god damn deal?

The big god damn deal is that you are afraid your random bar hookup that you were attracted to might have used to be a dude and therefor you are now gay by accident because you fucked a woman with male DNA. Neither sexuality nor DNA actually work that way but whatever. I get that. And picking up and fucking random guys without telling them that you used to be on their team is in fact kind of a dick move. This does not mean that the entire concept of transexuality and gender reassignment surgery is bad.

TL;DR both sides need to get the fuck over themselves and stop poking each other.

I 100% think it's a chemical PROBLEM. Being trans isn't like being gay, in that there is no reason it could be beneficial (you can still find love if you're gay). Being trans just means I have body issues and my brain is confused

I'm curious as to what you think your feminine parts are.

Do you cry a lot? Are you unable to open jars unless there's a strong man around you? Do you spend your time in the kitchen making sandwiches? Do you wish you had a big ol cock to suck on? Do you like fashion and make-up?

That has nothing to do with being a woman and everything to do with being gay.

I can't help that my gender is a woman. I don't understand why anyone would want to be a man. They're okay and can be sexy but I can imagine ever wanting to be one.

> Just accept it. You're a man, you'll never be a woman no matter how good plastic surgeons get.

Success is not subjective. I'm not talking about one's opinion of success. I'm talking more or less about mechanical success. Did the spacecraft successfully exit the stratosphere. There is only a yes or no answer to that question. All the space in between the yes or no is just a 'yes but..' or a 'no but..' ; there is o true middle ground there. And the same is exactly true for gender. You are either a male or a female, except that you can be a male who appears female or a female who appears male, or some bizarre permutation of that. But you are never a female who is also male. That's simply logically impossible. Noncontradiction at its most fundamental level.
>>
>>562585023
a 'true male' is a male who is comfortable with being male. This isn't an actual definition just a term i came up with to describe males that don't want to be females.

To me it's like driving a racecar halfway to the finish line then having a brick wall along the road. If you can't win the race (i.e become a true physical female) why even try.

>>562583762

>Because I knew I was a girl since pre-school is why I'm transgender.

No human exists with such a memory where they can possess such stable concepts of self identity at such a young age. That so many homo/transsexuals are known to profess these allegations proves that they engage in mnemonic confabulation in which they take occurrences from their childhood which may remotely support the concept that they were whichever way ever since they were born, and they construct the false reality that they were this way /necessarily/. It simply does not work that way. Normal boys and girls do not have a 'feeling of being their own gender' in the first place. Because it's already completely natural. It's the same bullshit as saying you have a 'feeling of having a right hand'. Amputees who claim they have always had a feeling of having a right hand are people who are obviously just experiencing phantom limb syndrome. Your little idea that you've 'always' been a certain way is something your ego constructs to make you feel justified in your current state. Nothing else.


>Accepting myself was hard to do but I'm now able to enjoy my life and role in society as a female.
You don't respond to what I write as if you had any reasonable comprehension of what was written, so now I am weary of continuing to talk with you, as it's becoming obvious that you're not capable of receiving any information I might convey. But you 'enjoy' your role as a 'female' in society because it's a convenient way for you to give up on your fail male identity. Of course if you have a failed male identity you will find comfort in resorting to a female one. You're not accepting 'yourself'. You're accepting the monster which your failure has generated. Godspeed sick one.

From what I've readed it seems like it's a disorder, but not a "mental" one in the same way as depression is. Haven't done too much research into this but they've apparently found evidence to suggest that gender is assigned to you while your brain develops in your mothers womb and transgenderism is a mutation.

That being said this would also prove that genderfluidity and all this other bullshit is total fucking crap. Just more reasons to hate special snowflakes.
>>
I consider myself to be pretty accepting of people's lifestyles but transsexuality is something that I cannot support. That doesn't mean that I treat them as subhumans, or actively tell them to change. It is their choice to fuck up their body because they think that they are a different gender. However, to me, you are not a boy that changed to a girl. You were a boy, you are now, and you always will be no matter what. If it came to a vote, I would abstain because I won't take away people's rights to fuck up their own bodies and I won't support it either. Society today seems to have confused "tolerance" with "acceptance". I tolerate people thinking that they can change their gender because they don't like the one they have but that doesn't mean I like it. Unfortunately, if said anywhere other than 4chan, my way of thinking would have me labeled as a bigot, which I think is a bit curious.

It doesn't work like that. First the body has a gender then the mind develops an identity based on that gender. If there's something fucked up about that development you don't change the body to support the mind, you change the mind to support the body. The body knows exactly what it is and what it's purpose is. Survive, and procreate. It's the mind that gets all this shit fucked up.

Prove it. Sex is something which is biologically defined chromosomal. Even the infinitesimal fraction of the population with the anomalous condition of having Klinefelter syndrome are still biologically male. Even intersex people are still more one sex than the other. There is no middle ground. Ever. Middle ground does not exist in nature. This is also one of the three primary laws of logic. Law of excluded middle. Literally every form of reasoning is against you. Every form of reasoning other than blatant fictionalisation and fantasy.
>I am a female. I have no male in me nor will I ever. I will end up living and dying as that of a woman. There is no middle ground for me.

I don't exactly know what direction tech is heading towards in this department, but for the sake of my own sanity and thousands of others I hope it hurries the fuck up to where we can just switch people's genders at the press of a button or something equally ridiculous.

That makes me quite happy because I think you're projecting your own insecurities.

My dear OP, I am in the same situation as you when it comes to transexuals. They are truly bizarre creatures. I, myself, wonder as well how a transexual can say what being the opposite gender feels like. It's brain must be damaged and/or affected by some other condition or simply it must be due to an overexposure to "tumblr".

this
girls act in a totally different way than male.
if you're born male but think and act a bit feminine, that is not normal.
I have transexual friend his name is José, but he changed to Thiara
it was kind of weird at first with all the make up and skirts and shaved legs and long hair, he used to be so alpha guys, he was /f/it as fuck

Yes.

I'm referring to a small tissue sample taken. You select a cell from this an manipulate it. You can virally modify a chromosome to select for its deletion under certain conditions. Duplicating it would be tricky, I don't know if this has been done.

Regardless, you'd use this cell line as the basis for what you'd grow on the scaffolding the uterus and vagina.

What makes you assume I don't myself have a doctorate? True it may not be in the field of sexuality but I do engage with professionals in the field constantly, as sexuality studies have been a lifelong academic hobby of mine. The holes I bring up in the arguments for transsexualism always do well to silence the professionals with whom I converse. They tell me every time, 'I don't know, there just isn't enough information' when it's clear that they're wrong and just don't like to consider it. They have to make a living, after all. And I wouldn't blame them either if not for the fact that their pseudoscience is leaving an entire generation of helpless, impressionable, mentally ill children astray. It's a tragedy, and as with any tragedy, those responsible will stop at nothing to delve themselves further down the spiral.


>"You're lying to yourself and made it all up."
I'm saying that, but I'm describing precisely how so that it's more than just presuming it.


>No, I have always felt this way.
What don't you understand about the fact that that's impossible for you to know? Magically, gay and transsexual people are the only people with these types of certainties concerning their childhood sexualities/identities, because normal people simply do not fucking experience this. Dead giveaway that you make it all up unconsciously to protect yourself from the fact that you're mentally ill.

> I used to have dreams of being a girl and wake up clutching my pillow wishing I could go back into them.

You say this as though you actually could ever remember something with this degree of specificity. The altogether more obvious explanation is just that you had a dream in which you felt relief from your normal state of mental illness, and you associated that relief with the concept of being a girl (and much later after it actually occurred). Your brain is not fucking conscious of the distinction of male or female, it does not itself even speak English.

Tranny here
It's not that you feel like you ARE a woman, it's that you feel like you AREN'T A man. Imagine feeling like you were born into the wrong body, and everything felt wrong- Not like you just don't like yourself, imagine if you felt like you were fundamentally in the wrong body. Then, something comes along, and you learn about women, and then you feel "that's what I'm supposed to be".
It's not that you "want to be a woman", it's that your body itself feels wrong. It's not a social thing, it's similar to dysmorphia but there's no cure.
It's a fucked-up, brain thing. It's a disorder (you get a feminized brain in a dude's body, so it's arguably not a brain disorder but a disorder with the entire rest of the body, it starts with extra estrogen in the womb).
It's fucked up for the person involved, but hormones are the only option

Okay. Please realize though, in this area you can only talk about trends and tendencies, because there are always outliers and exceptions.

Men tend to have higher ability with visual-spatial reasoning, whereas women tend to process language much better and generally have higher abilities in the area of language.

Women tend to replay conflicts and arguments over in their minds after the fact. Men tend to obsess on future worries more than women do.

Men tend to be confused by or dismissive of emotional information, though probably not as a biological fact, but rather as an effect of the way they were socialized. The "you're just being crazy" thing I am sure everyone has heard or said during an argument, even if they weren't personally involved in it, can be a manifestation of that difficulty understanding emotion.

There's a lot more, but shit, this post is already getting too long, and honestly, from your tone I doubt that you are wanting to discuss these trends with an open mind.

that;s not true. From a collectors standpoint, the size and volume can effect the value of the pot. The quality of the ceramic, the size ,shape,age,producer, can all adversely effect the value of the pot. Collectors are looking for a pot that can fit their collection, sometime large pots can be worth much less, because collectors just don't want the awkward size. Midsize pots almost always have the best worth , bang for you buck, also ,collector rarely look for functionality of their pieces, the want rare and unique items.

The technical term in psychiatry is compensation. And that describes exactly the nature of the psychosis of transsexuality. Transsexuality is compensated schizophrenia.

Rather than psychotically hearing voices or thinking light bulbs are watching you, the schizophrenia compensates (mitigates) itself into making one feel as though they are the opposite sex. They are the same exact types of delusions. Simply different manifestations.

And things like wanting to be the opposite sex, or to a lesser extent, engaging in sexual acts with the same sex, are simply symptomatic behaviours of this underlying, core delusion.

Didn't mean to offend you buddy. Just saying it's easy to make brain scans look like anything. I know there are legit biological differences between male and female brains.

Honestly, I don't agree with the progressives or the naysayers on this issue. Gender is mostly bullshit (make up, skirts, and muscle cars have nothing to do with your genitals yet so much to do with your gender.). If you want to do feminine o masculine things, then just do them.

Well that's fine, I'm not really offended, I just curse senselessly at people on the internet to make sure I don't start doing it in real life. The only issue I have with this whole damn thing is the mutilation. It's hurting people. Being a tranny is tough, no doubt.

Actually, I'm giving a general description of what I do.

Maybe you live in the dirty south or a major city with lots of niggers? I worked at a wendy's once. I never had much problem, except with the occasional negro from out of town.

For once, I can agree with Heaven. Nothing should be hated more than faux cyrillic.

It's not a generalization based on an experience, it's what you just did. Keep on proving that "lack of reading comprehension" theory I've got going

Listen faggot. Wake forest does good things. They're working to create lab grown organs, livers, not just vaginas and uteruses (which they successfully implanted). Are you?

Wanting to have sex with people you find attractive is a delusion? You're fucking stupid.
Most of them don't think they're the opposite sex. Most of them think they have a chemical problem, and they'd like to just fix the issue. I don't know any trans people outside of Tumblr who think they were ~born in the wrong body~. Myself included, every trans person I know irl recognizes they most likely have the body their chromosomes sent instructions to develop, and are just irritated they have the problem at all.
Schizophrenics are violent, confused, angry, depressed, and absolutely stupid most of the time. They're also known for being creative. There are no connections between being trans and schizophrenic. The only connection between homosexuality and transsexuality, is that most of the time, the trans person is attracted to the sex opposite of their gender. Which, according to you, is "right".

I'm calling you naive because I'd be surprised if you had any real friends, or did anything in the real world. I think you sit at home and think, and read a lot of texts, but you don't bother to do anything practical
>>
>>562593812

So, you're saying that the supernatural has been shown to exist 'supernaturally'?

>topmost kek of all time
>>
>>562575085 yes it is a mental illness same with homosexuality but you need to understand they are mentality ill and can't into logic. feelings dictate everything they do that's why it's not seen as a bad thing because hurting someone's little feelings is worse than murder

So when a person puts slits on their wrists, he gets put in a mental asylum
When a retard puts a slit inbetween his legs, hes deemed progrwssive.

He has a point though. The way you worded your sentence will quickly anger and confuse the average /b/ browser. Pick your words more carefully. They only see

>all religions ARE bad and untrustworthy

completely blinding everyone to the

>Unless they have a set of supernatural beliefs.

You have a set of beliefs for what happens after death too, anon, even if the answer is "I don't know", it's not fair to marginalize billions of people at once by claiming that any sort of scientific research a religious person undergoes is somehow suddenly corrupt.

People get liposuction because they are unhappy with the way their body looks, women go under the knife to get bigger boobs as they are unhappy witht hose, and women even get labiaplasties (or whatever the fuck it's called) when they're unhappy with their genitals (and men can modify their genitals too). Some people even get implants to look more muscular.
These people are unhappy with the way they look, and feel like they are a different looking person, when obviously they are not. It's not all that much different for someone to change their genitals to an imitation of the opposite sex, and all the other surgeries are pretty normal comparatively.
