The transgender con ? Many transgender regret switch

a reply to: Sheye

Why are you obsessed with others sex lives and choices? It's ridiculous. So, you don't like it? Cool. DONT GET A SEX CHANGE and REFRAIN FROM SPEAKING TO THOSE PEOPLE. Simple. Anything further than that, including threads like this, is nonsense and none of your damn business.

a reply to: Sheye

Nothing to twist you have shown your true motive for the thread....It started with the title.
If you really cared you would have responded differently to personal stories and maybe learnt something.
Heck at least be honest.

And for a minute there I thought we could have and honest and civil dialogue.

Why?!

I'm an enternal optimist, an Idealogue and I'm occasionally blinded by naïveté stemming from my ideals. I should definitely know better but I always try to keep a little hope in my heart.

Is it wrong to think some may need help with their illnesses before they kill themselves ?

No, it's totally not wrong! In fact, virtually every authority on gender dysphoria would agree with you. This is why they get help and transition. It's the only evidenced model of treatment that has been effective.

Why should I refrain from speaking to anyone on these issues surrounding the trans issue.

This" shut up "...type of attitude...." if you don't agree with it " is harbouring on my free speech .

Also ...if I refrain from speaking to them I'm called a bigot .

Thats not true according to some studies ... inconclusive at best.

I did respond to personal stories.. the ones in the OP , and others on sexchangeregret.com

I'm not going to coddle some grown up who is bemoaning that he couldn't live his fairy tale as a child , and everyone should feel sorry for him.

Not inconclusive at all. There are no science-based, peer reviewed medical studies saying that is not true. There are extrapolations of real studies (like that Swedish one ignorant people love to pull out) that claim that but they are based on studies directly contradicting their point.

My question is why? Why do you insist that the authority and consensus of the actual subject matter experts are wrong and that your non-expert sources are correct? Why? I asked before. If it's religious, why do you think your gods have an issue with properly treating gender dysphoria?

Because I disagree with what this world views as authority on this subject.

I have done some praying on this issue and I keep getting the same answer which I won't discuss on this thread.

You haave asked her...
I haave asked her...
A MULTITUDE of other posters asked her.

But nothing. Zip. Nada.

Like Peter with his optimism, the only thing nonsensical I feel thus far about my own posts are the fact I'm silly enough to keep posting. But you know, all we can do is try. The more you hack away at the stubborn tree with an ax of truth, eventually the stubborn wears away and the tree falls.

It's all we can hope for...

So, just like the Mormons, you're saying you prayed and you literally had a conversation with god..and he gave you the answers?

Not that it would be substantial...AT ALL...I find it convenient you won't share God's remarks on the matter

Because who could peer-review God, amirite?

Hey you and others have shown folk decent intelligent peer reviewed info If anyone clicks on the thread with an open mind all the typing will be worth it.
Keep up the good work guys.
Oh and Sheye I prayed to the great white monkey and she told me we are all her creatures and we should live and let live.
It appears my god is a better god then some.

Pickle Rick!

Ok so not only is your reasoning faith-based but it's also extra-biblical (ie non-biblical) and from your own personal gnosis with your gods?

What would you say to a Christian who prayed and received an opposing answer from the same gods you pray to? Because they exist, you know.

One good thing about this thread is that because of some posters people learn more about gender dysphoria and they help them to be wary of misinformation.

My god says it's ok.

Best god ever! I'm her high priest and chief of flinging the sacred poop.
