People who cannot accept their own biology are mentally ill.
Surgical alteration only exacerbates their problems.

“A psychological state is considered a mental disorder only if it causes significant distress or disability,” the American Psychological Association notes. "

That's a big part of the problem right there: a diagnosis based on feelings and not on reality.

If I feel --- without distress or disabilty --- that I am a fried egg, is that NOT a mental disorder if I feel good about myself with a little bacon on the side?
