We're trying to solve with medicine what we should be solving with therapy.
You can delay puberty with therapy?
You can treat dysphoria without immediately resorting to drugs.
Thats factually false, the only treatment for body dysphoria is transitioning and that requires medication.
That's exactly the dogma that got the Tavistock shutdown. Treatment needs to be holistic.
Transsexuality isn't static, it's a spectrum. You might as well state that non-op isn't valid either. The op isn't correct but neither are you.
