We need to stop treating this like it is normal.
Gender dysphoria is a real mental disorder that can be helped/treated.
Affirming the person is just going to make things worse for anybody.
"People who are transgender may pursue multiple domains of gender affirmation, including social affirmation (e.g., changing one’s name and pronouns), legal affirmation (e.g., changing gender markers on one’s government-issued documents), medical affirmation (e.g., pubertal suppression or gender-affirming hormones), and/or surgical affirmation (e.g., vaginoplasty, facial feminization surgery, breast augmentation, masculine chest reconstruction, etc.). Of note, not all people who are transgender will desire all domains of gender affirmation, as these are highly personal and individual decisions.
It is important to note that gender identity is different from gender expression. Whereas gender identity refers to one’s psychological sense of their gender, gender expression refers to the way in which one presents to the world in a gendered way. For example, in much of the U.S., wearing a dress is considered a “feminine” gender expression, and wearing a tuxedo is considered a “masculine” gender expression. Such expectations are culturally defined and vary across time and culture. One’s gender expression does not necessarily align with their gender identity. Diverse gender expressions, much like diverse gender identities, are not indications of a mental disorder."
It's the same as if you had a schizophrenic patient and you said to them," Hey, the voices inside your head are real, if you really feel that way."
"may pursue multiple domains of gender affirmation" is the same as a schizophrenic patient pursuing those unreal thoughts.
All the people who are faking the disorder, like most of the trans community, should be subject to the same care as a person with actual gender dysphoria. Then we can find the fakers.
Now granted," It is important to note that gender identity is different from gender expression. Whereas gender identity refers to one’s psychological sense of their gender, gender expression refers to the way in which one presents to the world in a gendered way."
But it's all the same still. You can still be a feminine boy, and a masculine girl. The problem arises, when you tell yourself and others that you are literally the opposite gender.
