You just labeled the sciences of human anatomy and psychiatry a Republican belief. This is what baffles me. People are willing to just ignore hundreds of years of science, logic and reasoning because some guy feels like he needs to be a woman, vice versa. The people around them are so disingenuous , they won’t encourage them to seek therapy first and deal with their trauma like the rest of us do because it’s an unpopular sentiment and more importantly they themselves aren’t aware that person is ill. Let’s get honest and help these beautiful people and identify Gender Dysphoria for what it is, a treatable mental illnesses.
