The disappointing thing for me is that scientists feel there is a biological question regarding gender confusion or gender dysphoria. This is a mental illness, not a question of biology. To properly treat a psychiatric problem one needs to accept the reality that there are only two genders/sexes, those with XX chromosomes and those with XY chromosomes. Gender dysphoria is a psychosis that affects one's ability to deal with reality, like schizophrenia. The illness requires psychiatric help, not enablers or codependents. Anyone familiar with psychiatry or psychology should know this. Medical doctors may be confused as to the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of gender dysphoria, but there really is no physical medicine treatment approach for the illness. To believe so would also be out of touch with reality. Papers like this confuse the issue regarding gender dysphoria by accepting a "transgender" premise. Whether "transgender" individuals should or shouldn't participate in opposite gender activities such as athletics should be a moot point because men aren't women and women aren't men. The humane approach therefore is to treat gender dysphoria and reject the enabling and codependency exhibited by those choosing to "support" the ill individual. No other psychosis is regarded in such a manner. Behavioral and verbal evidence regarding gender dysphoria should be enough for normal individuals to realize the condition and then seek professional psychiatric assistance. To do anything else is immoral, unethical and counterproductive. Medical professionals who enable or become codependent with gender dysphoric individuals should lose their licenses and then be subject to malpractice litigation.

This isn’t about sports but it still irritates me. La Leche League was founded in 1954 as a support group for nursing mothers. Of course:

Like so many women’s organisations, LLL has been destroyed by gender ideology, as demands are made for language to be changed, and workers at grass roots level - and even entire boards of directors - fall out over the fundamentals of their purpose.

She was the only founding member still active. (Free to read)
