"Doctors administered cross-sex hormones and a double mastectomy to Jane at ages 12 to 13 without adequate evaluation or treatment of her mental health issues, according to the letter."

This is exactly what I've been saying for some time. Many / most transsexuals are actually people who are tormented with mental health issues and they foolishly think that mutilating themselves is the answer. It's not and they end up committing suicide way over the normal rates. But treating them for the real issue has been basically banned and that's cruel.

Well said.

These people are mentally ill. Gender dysphoria is a recognized mental condition by mental health professionals.

It seems to me that the high suicide rate among transsexual people is due to the fact that they do have a mental condition. We should certainly give whatever help we can render, but appropriate help is not to mutilate bodies and give cross sex hormones.

I know the liberal view is that transsexuals have a high rate of suicide, because society is so oppressive and transphobic against transsexual people. And so transgender people feel so oppressed that they can’t take it anymore.

This is a bizarre world isn’t it?
