I don’t agree with a lot of things Trump says or does but I agree with him a hella a lot more on policy than Kamala. People actually wanted her to be president?

So gender dysphoria is a symptom of a few different mental illnesses. PTSD is a common one and disassociative disorders.
The trans community gets upset for
The most part if you call it a mental illness.
I don’t have a bone in it other than don’t confuse people and teach kids there’s all these genders. Don’t push it on kids and more protections for those with mental illnesses that we’re told they were trans.
This happened to me by the way luckily I knew better. Tried to tell me I was trans after a series of trauma and I told them to
Kick rocks.

The social anarchists did. Apparently she would have been a soft touch at cracking down on social unrest.
Although I haven't meet or talked to anyone connected to the social anarchy movement here in Australia for a real long time so maybe there's a new plan of attack for revolution.
One thing that puzzles me is that Elon Musk was a staunch anarchist supporter back in the 90s.

Generally true, but not for me personally.
At 65, many of my views are more liberal than they were at 18. Then again, I was raised by 2 staunch Republicans (old-school conservatives, not MAGA).
which policy?
he flip-flops and lies constantly and, when elected, doesn't follow through so what exactly are you voting for?
i'll give you an example. his 2 core policy promises of 2016 were "build a wall which mexico will pay for" and "repeal obamacare and replace it with something much better".
neither of which happened, even though the republicans had majorities in both chambers for his first two years.
so what does voting for trump because you agree with his policies even mean?
annexing canada? invading panama? buying, taking by force, greenland?

I'm sure there's a politically incorrect joke in there somewhere that includes lack of genitals and the Green party.
No it is an observation of the human tendency to change their point of view as they journey in life. Even the ancient Greeks and Egyptians noted similar changes of attitudes as people mature and gain a lifetime of experience. It is not a judgement or ideal; it is an observation of human nature.

I always thought that it was speaking to the tendency that, as you get older and have worked hard to build a comfortable life for yourself you have more of a tendency to not want to upset the status quo.

Well pretty sure he was a teenager back then who wasn’t as a teenager amiright
I am more deeply socialist and by some definitions anarchist too (but it is up to debate), having grown up and observed the world a bit. If someone was asking...

thanks for clearing that up
Happy to help
It is hilarious all the bullshit that is going on with the left. We already had him as a president and guess what things were OK. Then Biden got in and suddenly everything went up in price and everybody on the looney left was trying to deny free speech to anyone who didn't agree with them. Even Bill Maher is pissed at the woke movement.
Free sex change operations for illegal aliens was basically Harris's platform, and going further in debt to reward those that come here illegally.
Aw now the purple haired 12 gender communists are having a fit.

The current leading hypothesis for differences in gender and sexuality is a disrupting in normal neuroendocrine development while still in the womb. Neuronal development is a highly complex process with many different and usually distinct time periods when specific processes happen.
Think of it like a ballet, you need all the dancers to be in the right place at the right time. Imagine if they weren't, but still did the same dance moves. You'd have people on stage for another scene in the wrong costume, I mean it might be entertaining but it won't tell a fluent story. The order and timing are important for the overall function of the ballet.
Sometimes the timing gets off, or some protein is expressed at a higher or lower level that usual, or many other things can go wrong. If you consider the absurd complexity of biology its surprising things don't go wrong more often.
When the timing gets off or there aren't the right levels of hormones, neuronal development won't happen as it would have. Say a female fetus was developing and something caused them to produce too much of an androgen too early, it can impact how neuronal circuits develop in the brain.
So yes, technically these disorders are a mental illness but we can't go back in time to prevent issues during development and there isn't a way to make such massive modifications in a precise way once development is done. Even if there was we definitely don't understand all of the pathways yet.
So the current standard of care is to provide the hormones that the brain expects. This is currently the best option for patients who truly have this issue until we figure out something better.

Gender identity refers to the consciousness of being a man, a woman or other condition. Although it is generally congruent with the sex assigned at birth, for some people it is not. If the incongruity is distressing, it is defined as gender dysphoria (GD). Here, we measured whole-genome DNA...
