I'm always struck by how many trans seem to have mental health problems, like this chap.
Generalisation I know, but a quick Google tells me they are significantly more likely to suffer mental health problems.
The easy conclusion is - because they suffer stigmatisation.
But I wonder if the mental health actually comes first, and they are drawn to the trans world because of a lack of a coherent identity causing mental health issues.
And perhaps trans "interventions" make things worse in this regard.
Because it can't make them what they are not. Biological sex is as much mental as physical; I don't see how operations giving a likeness to biological sex changes anyone's biological sex in any significant way...
If I tragically lost my penis to a threshing machine accident tomorrow, and in my distress wore a bra, would this make me more female?
