I've brought this up many times when debating this topic online and in real life and it seems many people are quick to say this hypothesis that homosexuality is tied to childhood abuse especially with young boys has been debunked, they quickly dismiss it almost arrogantly.But when I speak to people who are gay and I ask them about their sexual history many of them will say they were sexual abused as a child by a family member or were involved with a older individual who basically took advantage of them. I speak more so toward gay boys/men when I make these statements, it is a hard topic to have in some circles because many people don't want to honestly open up about their childhood or they feel homosexuals are being painted as pedophiles and sexual abusers. Granted, I'm not saying sexual abuse is the main reason why someone may align with being gay but there are some cases out there atleast in my real life experience.

"May confirm" and yet you run with it, where is the definitive gay gene? 2017 and all they have is it possibly stems from xq28. These mental disorders stem from trauma or even stress, this white boy I knew in school is all of a sudden thinking he might be gay, how the hell do you THINK you are gay? That shyt is a choice and a bad one
What does being a hard science have to do with anything?
Psychiatrists are still medical doctors.
It's not a real treatment though. As it doesn't treat the symptoms.

Can someone explain why the concept of gender identity is seen as a mental disorder when it has no effect on reproduction whatsoever.

PreachLife isn't Binary , which is to say there are numerous variations to all aspects of life. Frankly I believe people should live their life in anyway that makes them happy. If a female is born, grows up and gains self-awareness enough to realized that they strongly feel/believe that they're physically in the wrong body. Who the fukk am I to tell them whats what? i don't know how they feel, I have ZERO reference point for that mindset, so I can't dismiss them as easily as others here can. To come at it another way. infants are born with extra limbs, missing limbs, extra organs, missing organs, extra toes/fingers, missing toes/fingers, no genitalia or two sets of genitalia's and some are even born without a fukking brain. So with that said, it's possible a male brain could have developed inside a female body and we really wouldn't know except for that person being able to express what they feel is going on. people wanna act like they KNOW whats going on inside other peoples minds but really they can only guess or make educated guesses. Those guesses still wouldn't justify harassing and threatening these individuals for their life choices.
When science progresses to the point where the human mind can become one's and zeroes inside a machine, new identities could evolve from that and a new form of persecution will be just around the corner to deal with that change.

lets no forget that some newborns are born with both parts and it is up to the parents to make the correct choice. Harrowing really
I've been saying this...
And just because it's a mental disorder doesn't mean transgender people are sub-human or we should shyt on them. But don't tell me it's normal. It's like autism. It's naturally-occurring, but it's not normal.

You comparing Autism to something that is clearly not a mental illness.
I find it disturbing transgenderism is in the DSM 5 since it does not meet the criteria of a mental illness.
They wrote DSM 5, so more conditions can be reimbursed.
Now expensive hormone treatments and surgeries are not reimbursable.
They used to have to piggy back diagnosis to get paid, for instance if someone is struggling with their impulse control, the psychotherapist would bill the insurance for treatment of depression or anxiety. Impulse control was not covered due to how it was categorized in DSM IV.
The DSM 5 is written so more conditions can be covered, they loosened up a lot of criterias.
DSM IV was troubling enough, but they are not committed to science in DSM 5.

That study has been debunked repeatedly.
There is not now or has there ever been found a link between dna and homosexuality.
I personally don't give a damn what sex someone chooses to identify as. I do have a problem with ppl thinking there are more than two genders. Or all this extra shyt. Life IS binary. That's just biological. Ppl can deny science only for so long. That doesn't mean they can't live as the other sex though.
ppl with gender dsyphoria have a mental illness, and it's not always just what gender they are, but other mental illnesses which they think lead back to gender. Even after surgery, and therapy and hormones, and living as the other gender, a lot of times these ppl are still mentally ill.
Lol, no
