WHO?

gender dysphoria is literally a mental illness

and still classified as such, unlike homosexuality which was removed

But who is it classified by? the latest paper of the american Psychatric Assocation posted this paper that disproves your claim, this assocation is the biggest in the US of psychatrists

@National Trotskyist

thats why I asked for a source in the first place

if you gonna make a claim like that one back it up with something

Gender Identity Disorder was what applied to trans people in the past, but under the new (DSM-5) guidelines that has changed to 'Gender Dysphoria' which only applies to people who experience 'significant distress or impairment' from their 'wrongly assigned' gender. So, under the new guidelines, not every transsexual technically qualifies as 'mentally ill'.

@Trve Metalist dig in Russian psychiatry.

Disregard American.

A lot of russian are very homophobic and I know that becouse I deal with this people daily

You just use sources you like?

*hails hitler*

No but I believe that the USA psychatrists are more progressive and know more about gender studies since many of the russian psychatrists would disregard any new research about gender since sadly Russia has a lot of homophobia

@Firefly

What does trannies even have to do with "homophobia"?

Many Russian psychiatrists disregard research? Can you name a single one?

So if a person doesnt like gay people they are not gonna be super critikal about trans people

ha

But gays literally hate trannies, there is no unity between them

Have you heard of TERFs

And nope, check Iran

Homosexuality is forbidden here, but they accept trans because Koran requires it

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mukhannathun

They have their divide becouse of religion, as a russian I know very well that the culture here is not welcome of gays or trans people

@Trve Metalist I'm waiting for names of psychiatrists still.

I dont have to point out names, I told you my reason for my claim. This is not a small problem in Russia, "transexualism" is diagnosed as a disorder in Russia

It's diagnosed as a disorder here too lol

based Russia

@Trve Metalist lovely. You claim many people do something and don't know a single one.

transsexualism in itself is not a disorder as per the DSM-5 @National Trotskyist

You dont understand, the problem is that the diagnosed people have to undergo Psychatric abuse

they stay in the institutions for one month

Or so

explain how transsexualism is not a mental illness but schizophrenia is

Transsexualism is a gender identity

Schizophrenia has actual consequences that fuck up the individual

right, you know i'm talking about the body dismorphia

We should abolish gender

transsexualism has plenty consequences
