Of course it is a mental illness.

I have no idea why the far left is so enamored of the idea of treating people with mental illnesses as if they are normal, just because the illness is centered around sexuality.

Clearly, someone claiming to be transgendered has a LOT of issues. One’s gender is a fundamental aspect of one’s being; to reject it is a rejection of self that stops just short of suicide. Pretending that it is normal does not help that person at all.

I would say, from what I have observed of “gays” is that they do not suffer from misdirection of their normal desires, but that they are scared of intimacy with members of the opposite sex. This is just another example of how the left victimizes these people.

True, we do not have instant cures for these conditions. But it is irresponsible and cruel to refuse to try to help them, even with our current less than optimal treatment options.
