I have written about the “Trans” scam that is popular now. I maintain, supported by the DSM5, that “Trans” people are first and foremost mentally ill. They suffer from a condition known as Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID). BIID is a large umbrella that covers a multitude of conditions, that manifest itself in different ways. A person suffering from Anorexia Nervosa is suffering from a form of BIID. No surgeon in their right mind would perform gastric bypass surgery on a person suffering from Anorexia Nervosa.

I tend to take the view that consistency is a vital component when making the journey from premise to conclusion. To be valid, I would expect to see a straight line or one that curves to reach its destination. I am deeply suspicious of any school of thought that must zig-zag its way from premise to conclusion. This article in the Federalist describes BIID and its many manifestations. It describes seriously mentally ill individuals, with one class the “Trans”, being ill served by the psychological community. Woman-demands-doctors-sever-spinal-cord-fit-body-mind-transsexual-man/

Transgender advocates tell us the encompassing feeling about incongruity between transsexuals’ body and self-concept is unlike anything else humans can experience. Thus, they demand very intentional public acceptance. But being transgender is only one subset under a larger condition. While many trans advocates resist the categorization, it falls practically under the category of what psychologists term Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID). It’s a general condition where a person’s physical body does not align with or is dis-integrated with what his or her mind understands itself to be. It’s psychological Platonism.

Other manifestations of BIID are Anorexia Nervosa and transable. It goes by various names: apotemnophelia, somatoparaphrenia, or xenomelia. Just as gender dysphoria drives the sense that one’s body is not right and must be reconstructed, this is a curious condition where an individual intensely feels that a particular limb or other section of his or her body does not belong.

There seems to be a disconnect. A person desiring an amputation to fulfill their body image is judged mentally ill, and surgeons refuse to remove healthy tissue. ZIG. Let a person claiming to be “Transsexual” requests surgery, and some of these same surgeons will have the offending healthy penis or breast off; moving quicker than a Ginsu chef at a Japanese steakhouse. ZAG.

Surgery does not correct psychological problems. Johns Hopkins pioneered sex change surgery in the United States. Johns Hopkins no longer performs the procedure. Sweden preceded the United States in sex change surgery and released a long-term study, quoted below, with a link.

A 2011 Swedish study, a long-term follow-up of men and women who underwent gender reassignment surgery, indicates that cutting bodies and administering hormonal treatments are not as ameliorative as many think. The authors carefully explain the methodological problems that have plagued previous analyses and how their study provides marked improvements.

In contrast to the general population in Sweden, those who have undergone sex reassignment surgery in that extremely gender-variant country are:

• Three times more likely to die prematurely from any cause.
• Nineteen times more likely to die from suicide.
• Three times more likely to die from cardiovascular disease.
• Three times more likely to require psychiatric hospitalization.
• Two times more likely to engage in substance misuse.
• Two times more likely to commit violent crime.

Of all the health categories the researchers examined, only suffering “any accident” or committing “any crime” were less than two times greater than the general population. The scholars conclude, “Even though surgery and hormonal therapy alleviates gender dysphoria, it is apparently not sufficient to remedy the high rates of morbidity and mortality found among transsexual persons.” Cutting the body does not seem to heal the mind.

The whole “trans” movement is a con job that must be allowed to stand. Calling the would be she, he is not phobic it is being truthful and not giving into the delusions of somebody who is crazier than a shit house rat. In my book, it is never impolite to refuse to facilitate a lie.

A final thought from the article leads me to question the validity of psychology as a science. Facts are facts, not subject to change because they are no longer stylish. The fact that high-profile professional psychiatric associations say one of these is no longer a psychological disorder must be taken with a substantial grain of salt. Their conclusion is not the result of any new scientific development. It’s the admitted result of significant pressure by pro-transgender lobbyists.
