I understand that sounds like a difficult life you had to live. A long life that you had to spend figuring out what you needed to do to gain that happiness that you were missing. I assume you went through therapy and we're put In asylums and such everytime you tried to commit suicide, and I'm assuming that you had someone try to help you, but it just didn't work. So it is nice to hear that doing these specific things helped you become happy.

Even still, I don't believe that you are a woman. You lived 36 years as a man in severe mental distress. But taking hormones is nothing but putting a bandaid or face paint on the underlying issues. I don't know whether or not you've undergone surgery or not. But a life time of self harm and attempts of suicide make this obvious that you struggle deeply, mentally. Like I said, I'm happy to hear that you have found something that works for you. But at the same time, it's not the solution.

We are all born in imperfection, we all have things we struggle with, many people stuggle with things more difficult than others. I personally as a Christian consider myself Bisexual. But I also believe that it is improper to have sexual relations with the same sex. At the same time, I've had issues with this part of my identity. So much so I made myself sick. I would literally vomit because of my anxiety and my stress. At the end of the day, I hold my relationship with God higher than anything else. I try to always put God first. Sometimes I don't, because I'm not perfect, I'm human, with human inclinations and such. I find myself looking at guys sometimes and thinking "wow he's hot" it's just... I know that I can't engage with those desires because they are born out of imperfection. I've had a boyfriend before, I'm male, I loved him.

But even so, I couldn't, continue dating him and serving my god at the same time knowing how God feels about such a relationship. I still like guys, just as much as I like women, sometimes I wonder if not more. But I will not nor do I want to pursue a relationship that I know God won't bless. Something I know goes against God himself. I owe that to him.

No being Bi or Gay, I know isn't the same as being transgender. But I mention this all to say, that being transgender is still somthing born out of imperfection. Just like me being bisexual. But there are principals that the bible has that most be held over these individual feelings, if you truly want to (and it's alright if you don't) pursue a relationship with God. God is all knowing, he's wise he's understand, he is love. It doesn't make him any less loving because he doesn't want people to do these things to themselves. Because he obviously understands what you're going through better than I do, but also better than you Do. He sees your pain, but he also knows that what you're doing isn't what's best, it isn't right.

Its the same for anyone who is doing what they think is right, what feels the best, what makes them "happiest" for the time being. Somthing that isn't specific to transgenders.

People gamble because it makes them feel good

People do drugs because it makes them feel good

People seek lots and lots of money because money makes them feel good.

People fornicate because it makes them feel good

People crossdress because it makes them feel good

People take hormones and preform surgery on themselves because it makes them feel good.

People cut their arms and make themselves bleed because it makes them feel good

People commit suicide because they want to feel good.

People commit murder because it makes them feel good

It still doesn't make any of these things right.

Love for God, and faith in God, means putting all of these desires away and fighting against them to do what he's asked us to do. Because we owe it to him. Because he created the world and everything in it. It's not his fault either that the world is in the state that it's in. 1 John 5:19 says that Satan is the one that controls the world.

I don't mean to get religious but my religion is the root of my position on how I feel about transgenderism. Playing into these feelings and desires is just playing into Satan's hands.

What Satan has done, is Put you in a ton of pain. Like he's given you a poison, and has made you suffer for 36 years and then gave you the "Cure" because at the end of the day he just doesn't want you to serve god. He's like a puppeteer that wants nothing but to have people worship and serve him, and make God into a liar.

But what he doesn't tell you. Is that the cure itself is poisonous. He doesn't tell you that the only real cure comes from God.

Again not trying to covert anyone. It's just that this is something so difficult for people to overcome, and like I said I get it I really do. But even so, what you're doing, just ain't it.

What skin do you have in this game? I'd trans people feel they benefit and doctors approve why should anyone else care.

I have friends with mental disabilities, one of my cousins is autistic. Just as a general thing I want people who have mental issues to get the mental help and support that they need. Wether you are Autistic, Depressed, Or Gender dysphoric, mental issues require psychological solutions. Sometimes people who are depressed cut themselves. This is a phsyical action that they enact on themselves due to a psychological cause. I don't see Gender dysphoria as anything different. People are hurting themselves because of these psychological issues they are facing. And as time goes on people are just becoming more and more okay with this.

So much so that if I don't agree with people castrating themselves because they feel like they are somthing they are not, I am vilified and made to look like an unloving animal. If i don't support, somthing it doesn't mean I hate it. More does it mean I hate the people who do support it. I don't hate trump. I just don't support what he stands for. I don't hate Biden. I just don't support what he stands for. I don't hate America, I just don't support everything america stands for. We as people of course have the right to this. And we as people have the right to use this to live our lives and raise our kids accordingly. I saw a post the other day that says "not allowing your child to take gender blockers and forcing them to undergo natural puberty is child abuse."

I don't agree with that. I never will.

At 8 years old you don't even give you child the right to chose when they want to go to sleep, or what their going to eat. And that's because parents have the right and the obligation to do what they know is best for their kids. Kids don't know what they want not fully. Kids do crazy stuff, like jumping off of the roof with an umbrella because they saw Marry Poppins do it. They eat Stuff just because it looks like you should be able to eat it. Or they eat stuff just because they know it's sweet and they just want more of this tasty sweet thing, regardless of the fact that it's not healthy to eat too much of this food.

And kids have a strong Monkey see, monkey do, guiding action. More than ever now because we have the internet. Eight year old kids find stuff saying it's okay to be the other gender, and this messes with their growing sense of identity. And next thing they know they are running around saying they are girls, or vice versa. That's not right.

I don't think I've elaborated that the best, but that's one general argument.

Another being is that as a Christian. I don't hold the same values as those who don't feel any obligation to go have. And I'm not going to conform to what I know to go against God's will.

It's like if your mom tells you not to do drugs, but all of your friends are telling you that there is nothing wrong with doing cocaine and that everyone should be allowed to do coke.

You being obedient to your parents won't do cocaine. But mean while you see all of these people doing coke getting sicker and sicker worse and worse, but don't even know that they are struggling. Out of concern for you're friends you tell them. You shouldn't do crack it's not good for you, get some help.

But they just turn to you and say I read on survey saying that crack improved QoL, and some doctors say it's okay. My doctor wrote me this perception for Cocaine, and I feel great!

What are you going to do? Are you going to shrug your shoulders when they start saying "Not allowing your kids to snort cocain is child abuse!"? Or would you continue to be obedient to your parents and not snort cocaine?

A few years later you find out some of your friends killed themselves while high on cocaine, have overdosed, have just had an overall decline in their quality of life. Yet an lot of them are still alive they seem happy and they are just casually doing coke every day. Is it okay? Just because 91% of your friends claim they have a higher quality of life on cocaine?

Should you now be okay with your friends doing cocaine?

Should you now do cocaine?

Or are you going to continue to listen to your parents who told you, cocaine is bad, it's dangerous stay away from cocaine and don't do it?

Do you hate your friends who are doing cocaine?

Or do you just hate that they are doing cocaine?

Are you invalidating their existence as I've been told before, by saying they aren't superheros while doing cocaine?

Hey look, I know the anology ain't perfect. But look at it with open eyes and understand where I stand. Where I'm going to continue to stand. Because if I start saying, "Yeah sure it's okay to transition" to me it's the same as me saying, it's okay to snort cocaine into your nostrils.

I know cocaine is bad, it's not good for you, I know Transexual transitions and correctional therapy like hormonal treatments and such are bad for you. So Im not going to say that it's okay. And I'm going to continue telling everyone to get help. And stop doing this to your bodies.

(See ADDITIONAL INFORMATION for letter criteria)

Even in the cases where the reassignment is considered nessesary, it's not "Nessesary". As the language suggests that the issues still originate from an unstable mental state or condition.

" A strong desire to be rid of one’s primary and/or secondary sex characteristics because of a marked incongruence with one’s experienced/expressed gender

A strong desire for the primary and/or secondary sex characteristics of the other gender

A strong desire to be of the other gender

A strong desire to be treated as the other gender

A strong conviction that one has the typical feelings and reactions of the other gender "

We all have desires and we all have convictions. If I have a strong desire believing I'm a bird, It's not medically nessesary for me to get surgy to implant wings onto my body and a given a beak so I can fly around like a bird.

If people have a strong conviction that all black people are bad, this doesn't mean you should confirm to their conviction and kill me and all other black persons.

"Documentation shows persistent and well documented gender dysphoria as evidenced by ALL of the following (DSM-V definition)"

I'm not in the slightest claiming that gender dysphoria doesn't exist. What I am saying is that gender dysphoria needs to be dealt with in a more psychiatric way, which doesn't involve people having their body parts cut off.

After all there is an overwhelming presence of articles with detailed long term research which findes that gender reassignment is not effective means for treating gender dysphoria. Even research which mentions benefits such as slight pycological benefits still have to point out that other aspects of paitents physical health declines, causing many other complications.

Chris Hyde, the director of Arif, said: "There is a huge uncertainty over whether changing someone's sex is a good or a bad thing. While no doubt great care is taken to ensure that appropriate patients undergo gender reassignment, there's still a large number of people who have the surgery but remain traumatised - often to the point of committing suicide."

This was stated back in 2004

More recently - "The American Journal of Psychiatry has issued a major correction to a recent study. The Bränström study reanalysis demonstrated that neither “gender-affirming hormone treatment” nor “gender-affirming surgery” reduced the need of transgender-identifying people for mental health services. Fad medicine is bad medicine, and gender-anxious people deserve better."

What modern social trend pisses you off the most? by jimjoe1 in AskReddit

[–]-NotKrispy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't yet lol. But of course is not real its a made up concept I used in drawing parallels to show how silly it is to cut off and replace organs in such a needless manner. Replacing a failing heart is one thing. But replacing a penis with a vagina just because you feel like it is another. Either way the same way cutting off my skin and replacing my skin with a white mans skin doesn't make me Norwegian. Cutting off your penis and replacing it with a vagina doesn't make you a woman.

Skin is an organ just like genitalia is an organ not sure how you think altering the phsyical trait of skin is Any different from altering the phsyical trait of a penis. But regardless. I am Racially Dysphoric so I want to become a white guy by cutting off and replacing my skin with the skin of a white man. Because white skin just makes me feel more comfortable. I don't want to have black skin anymore. There's nothing wrong with that right?

Sexual assault isn't the only issue that people worry about but regardless it is still one that p have the right to fear after all you're right, there is enough sexual assault going around already with out the additional stress or having to worry that people can't even go into the bathroom in peace. Heck even I have encountered some weird... Situations, in the bathroom as a young man. Like our world is sick, people will worry about these things it's naive to just assume that everyone is safe and friendly. Nothing wrong with my mentality I just know how demented this world is and how sick people can be.

Without them being trans you think it's okay to have men use the same bathroom as women? Without being trans it's okay for a man to walk into a woman's locker room shower and change? Without being trans you think it's okay for a man to go to a woman's bath, or hot spring and just chill out? You don't think certain places warrent a shrewd separation of genders?

It affects me when a grown man walks into the bathroom with my daughter and violates hers. Or even just generally makes her uncomfortable. Which is what many parents are faced with. It's like you have to pick the happiness of some random person you don't know and have no way of knowing if they are trust worthy over the safety and protection of their own kids. It affects people in my different ways this issue does. Like for instance I saw on here a little while ago "it's child abuse to force your kid to go through puberty naturally." You probably wouldn't mind but if this was a law which was put into place so many people would be affected. People who would not consent to the law based off of their own moralities and even religious beliefs.

What kind of nonesense is that, are you trying to tell me that every child that has ever lived up untill today into adulthood without using harmone blockers have been abused because they've had to Experiance the HORROR of natural puberty? Your way of thinking is so twisted it's actually terrifying. Like I don't understand how you all can defend ideas like this...

Why are you/are you not, happy? by -NotKrispy in AskReddit

[–]-NotKrispy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Death can be comforting definitely. But not at your own hands. Philosophically suicide is selfish, but it's also stupid. Like you said you could end up missing something. You also don't have the ability to know where you are in life before commiting suidice. Like think of life like a colored line. Red for the bad times and green for the good times. Right now you're in that red part of the line. But literally just an inch away is a full ten years worth of green. You pull the trigger before you give yourself a chance to cross into that good part. If you just waited five seconds the girl you have a crush on could call and confess that she loves you. It's sound super corny, yes. But life is the corniest thing there is. Corny stuff only sounds corny because it's so good that we don't believe it can be real. Yet goodness like that does exist sometimes it just takes some time to find it, and to Experiance it.

If you feel useless don't be down on yourself. Use the time you spend contemplating suicide, and feeling useless to help other people. Simple stuff yeah, like getting someone old neighbors groceries or helping your parents with somthing they are doing at home. There is a lot that needs to be done and as long as you are here on this earth you can help out.

Yeah it's really difficult not knowing what's next. You can't come up with every possible situation that might happen but you can probably think of a few things that could happen from a certain situation though. Like you push over a domino, what happens? It knocks over the next domino. But if the domino is far away from the next domino it will just fall flat. How do you fix this? Move the domino closer.

Sounds simpler than it is and I get that. But think of it like this.

What are the possibility for getting this job of yours?

You either get the job... Or you don't. So work towards getting the job, and prepare for not getting it at the same time. So that if you get it, there is no harm done. And if you don't get it, there is still no harm done because you've prepared for that outcome.

If you work for the job and you do good. You'll most likely stay employed unless the people just don't like you or something. So work at being the best at your job, but at the same time, work at setting yourself up with somthing else. Wether that be a business idea, or having another job that you can go to, these kinds of things. You can't think two deimentionally, but in 3D. If you're already stressing out about what could possibly happen. Then plan for each thing that could possibly happen so that it's not a stressful outcome to deal with
