Gd bless this person. This is what I have always believed. This is truth. Something is DYSfunctional to feel like the opposite gender. With careful, non-political treatment he could have been helped from the start. Abused sexually as a kid by a man. Feeling erotic at dressing like a woman. These were major clues that he has psychological problems, not transgender (which there is no such thing).
And now everyone in the psych / shrink world can’t touch these patients. We are not allowed to treat or handle or help with truth. We are forced to go to something worse than or the same as the conversion therapy they hate so much.
I am so glad he is speaking out.
For years on FR I have been saying that a treatment with a 50% success rate is not a good treatment. It’s not significant; it’s flipping a coin. They use threatened suicide as the main reason to keep pushing to mutilate and transgender the patient, but THE PATIENTS STILL COMMIT SUICIDE AT THE SAME RATE AFTER TRANSITIONING. And there is high % of rejection of “treatment” and “transitioning back” at high surgical and hormonal risk and pain.
We need to treat the patient. Forget gender for a moment and counsel, love, and understand the actual person. Whether they have a gender dysphoria from something environmental in the womb or childhood, the patients need honor and individual care. Not a forced deathmarch to the Holy Transgender.

“I do not have any disorders of sexual development. All of my sexual confusion was in my head. I should have been treated. Instead, at every step, doctors, judges, and advocacy groups indulged my fiction.”
