As humans, we should always question history, the law and, popular belief.
For example, denying the holocaust is a crime in many countries, punishable by jail time. Questioning that makes you a ‘racist’ ‘anti-semite’ ‘bigot’ It is only human nature to question these history changing events. But what about when you question gender-norms?

However, that is a fully different category. When you are questioning your gender, you are questioning biology, science. Something that many atheists hold dear. In Fact, the majority of these so called ‘transgenders’ are in fact atheists. They believe in science. However, the also question it. This makes them immune to their own ideology. But let's just ignore that one simple detail and go on.

I understand if you just ‘feel’ like you're the wrong gender. But first, you must tell me the difference between facts and feelings. This is why I consider gender dysphoria a mental illness. You may consider my statement now a bit ‘biased’ However, you must re-read this sentence to fully understand it.  Facts and Feelings, but what would you choose. Feelings over Reason?


As with most areas in life, people make mistakes and then want to revoke their actions. However, in this case. Their genitalia will be permanently messed up. There are options to ‘restore’ to orginal gender, however, It will never be the same. But what does this seem like? Damaging your body based via your feelings? Gender dysphoria is self harm.

“Urologist Miroslav Djordjevic, who specializes in gender reassignment surgery, has seen an increase in “reversal” surgeries among transgender women who want their male genitalia back. In the past five years, Djordjevic performed seven reversals in his clinic in Belgrade, Serbia. The urologist explains The Telegraph that those who want the reversal display high levels of depression, and in some instances, suicidal thoughts. Other researchers also report hearing about such regrets.”


The factors leading up to the transformation also differ, but here is one snippet from an article I read about a girl becoming a boy, then “reversing” back to a girl. These are her words leading up to here ‘awakening’ Notice how she was influenced by “YT videos” The LGBT community influenced her. Some may call this propaganda. However, from what I have learned, young people are VERY impressionable.  [Link in Sources]

“At first, Zahra thought she was gay. But after searching the internet and watching YouTube videos about transgender people, she realised she felt more like she was trapped in the wrong body.”
[One again, you notice a theme of influence in this. X, the counsellor]
“Afterwards, Zahra began seeing a counsellor. They wrote a referral for a second GP, who arranged an appointment with an endocrinologist, who could prescribe testosterone — a first step on her journey to becoming male”

The mental implications of the Zhara’s ‘awakening’ were not-so-good implications. Soon in, after she started taking testostorone, she reported this:


“I started getting really angry from the testosterone, which is a side effect,” she says. “But then I started getting depressed. I was like, why am I depressed? I should be happy.”
“I was getting a deeper voice, facial hair and many other changes but I just wasn’t happy with them,” she says. “I didn’t feel like myself.”
Then eight months in, things hit crisis point. Zahra tried to kill herself. Twice.
