I think the question should more be, with some people is their view that they are in the wrong body, one that demonstrably is shown to be consistent and very unlikely to change over time. And where that is the case, and a physical intervention is made, is the outcome post that more often a positive one. Clouded in politics now, I'd say that the answer tends to be that it should be an option and that viewing it as universally wrong or negative isn't helpful or accurate. I don't though view the more modern 'respect my pronouns' activist take of these issues as at all helpful as it blurs more lines, and creates a more ephemeral idea of 'gender is nothing, i can look male but say i'm female'. It's more like tourism than a lived reality and creates concerns with womens spaces and the like. I agree again MYN. I did try to infer that through the usage of the word 'tend' but perhaps not strong enough. Again, it's more opposition to one extreme than the endorsement of another.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

You appear to be in a very general consensus, spearheaded by my wife, in suggesting I bear responsibility for discussion based around 'nonsense'.
