I don’t know if it is being born in wr0ng body but I do believe some people really feel they are not the gender their body is. It is really an extreme feeling when you’d rather die than keep living the gender of your body. There are children who never heard of LGBT who say they know are not the gender of their body. Do you believe there are gays and lesbians?

The suicide rate among post-op transgenders is huge -- much, much higher than the rest of the population on average, and higher than the suicide rate of pre-op transgenders, as well.

Transgenderism is a mental disorder, and it needs to be treated as such. These people need help, not "tolerance", and letting them live their mental disorders out as normal is killing them.

I argue this topic from time to time, and I believe the numbers on transgender suicide are something like 50%-60%.

These people have serious mental issues, and they should be confined to a treatment facility until they can cope.

Do you have a source? I talked to a guy who claimed the opposite.
