Sure and you would cut your brain if there is an actual diagnosable problem that's a threatening concern. What's the threatening concern that takes anything more than just accepting what you are? Accepting who you are is accepting yourself as a TG person (if you are a TG person). Even if a TG person wanted not to be a TG person, she/he would have no option. Provided the identity is well established, she/he would have no power to do so. We, medical professionals, would not be able to do anything to change that either, for reasons already explained. Medicine is not omnipotent. If the TG person in question presents body dysphoria, this (together with the comorbid distress and other complications) is the threatening concern that does exist. If medical care is not provided, they can suffer great despair and even commit suicide (die). In unresponsive depression, we also have the option do neurosurgery. Tumors, aneurysms, strokes and other conditions that share higher visibility are not the only ones that are treated this way. |
