You guys toss around mental diagnoses like you think you know what they mean.

I’m helping you understand what they mean and how they are diagnosed.

That’s how I’ve helped educate you and Vicki
No you're not. You have not provided a single insight into diagnostics.
So be my guest ... go.

But you sure like to demean other people for their positions on a topic you believe to be none of your business.
Yes. People’s sexual identity and how they express it is none of my business, just as their religion is none of your business.

Stay in your lane. Other people’s private lives shouldn’t concern you.

Post 130

I’d asked you to comment on whether all transgender people have gender dysphoria several times, but you repeatedly avoided answering.

So I gave you a sketch of how a diagnosis of gender dysphoria might be established, with the caveat that I’m not a psychiatrist.

Your welcome. Now you know more than you did.You’re starting to learn more about gender identities, gender expression, mental diagnoses and how they differ.

Congratulations!

You and what you do with your genitals. Don't put them where someone else doesn't want them. Whatever else you do with them is up you. You're obsession with what other people do with theirs is pretty sick.
So you think I shouldn't discuss transgenderism. Fuck that.

You can discuss it all you want. But you aren’t discussing transgenderism, you're discussing and advocating for laws that restrict their rights as Americans and human beings.

The degree to which you suffer mental anguish and distress over your gender identity MIGHT help substantiate the diagnosis of gender dysphoria if it were impairing your ability to function in society or in your personal relationships.

But I’d have to meet you, discuss these and other issues, possibly order lab tests and watch your response to therapies. And all that is assuming I had training specific to this condition and had completed more training in psychiatry in general.
Salient points for you in this post:

1. Not all transgenders suffer dysphoria
2. There are specific diagnostic criteria
3. An examination is necessary, diagnosis cannot be done over the phone or without meeting the patient
4. Training is necessary

I get that you are non-medical, but you really need to improve your reading comprehension skills.

Stay in your lane, and stop diagnosing people with psych conditions you don’t understand and aren’t qualified to make.

And unless you want to make tattoos, piercings, tummy tucks and other cosmetic surgeries illegal quit trying to legislate medical therapies based on your ignorant bias.

Why are MY beliefs relevant? What does transgenders medical choices or possible psychological diagnoses have to do with MY opinions?

Sounds like she was an evil shooter.

Perhaps there was a history of bullying by ignorant bigots involved with her psychopathy, but who knows?

Perhaps a more tolerant society with healthier attitudes towards diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders would’ve helped prevent this tragedy.

Or maybe just better gun control. What is your point?

I don’t think that’s fair at all. And I don’t think there is a consensus among card-carrying libs on trans athletes competing at any level without special scoring systems.

For one thing, I never got my card.
