Quote:I think that is the part that annoys me the most.  Could every single transgender person have a mental illness?  Yes, but in my opinion based on how unbelievable life itself is, it makes sense that someone could have the mind of a woman trapped in a man's body or visa versa.  It seems very plausible in fact.  But we are still so early in transgender studies that no one should be claiming they know as a matter of fact all transgender people are mentally ill.

 

If you believe gay men and women truly are attracted to the same sex just as straight men and women are truly attracted to different sex, why would you think it isn't possible that someone can be mentally female, but physically male?  I mean, we have black holes in our universe that suck light and all mass near it into an infinitely small hole, yet some how being transgender is impossible...  There are so many things we do not understand in this world.  Open your mind people.  This world is not nearly as simple as you wish it to be.

There arent that many transgenders, certainly not as many as there are schizophrenics or other better known mental illnesses. The same with homosexuals, even though they are out in most places they are still a miniscule segment of the population at large. Its not beyond reason that the entire poulation is mentally ill, discounting those doing it for attention, fame, or other similar reasons. They certainly comprise an abnormal segment of humanity.
