Gender dysphoria is a mental illness, and pretending mental illness is cured by succumbing to it is an exercise in retardation.
So a lot of trannies get social support and surgeries only to learn that it doesn't help because the root cause of the issue is their brain, not their body.

Less developed societies tend to adhere to Dunbar's Number better. A mentally ill person's impact ends up being limited to those with a personal relationship with them. In societies where the average person interacts with thousands of different people, most of whom are strangers, it is unrealistic to expect everyone to be willing to learn be and knowledgeable of each mentally ill person's delusions.
Forcing these people out of the shadows and into the public eye has been very harmful to them. In the former case, they could rely on the family and close friends to be sensitive to their mental illness. Now they have to be exposed to the public at large and it's not going good for them and never will. The public is never going to accept the requirement of learning the mental illness and appropriate make believe affirming statements for random people they run into while buying groceries. Most people are already at the breaking point of their cognitive load. They're not going to welcome yet another imposition from angry strangers.

>Among the positive outcomes of gender transition and related medical treatments for transgender individuals are improved quality of life, greater relationship satisfaction, higher self-esteem and confidence, and reductions in anxiety, depression, suicidality, and substance use.

It only looks like suicidality and substance abuse can be directly and objectively measured.

And how do they know that the component of the treatments they think is working is doing the actual work?

For example, a treatment team screens candidates for SRS. They reject people with a history of substance abuse due to risk of non-compliance. Then they require several sessions of counseling. They used to even require spending years living as the other gender. The surgery is performed and the patient received many follow-up appointments with caring doctors and nurses who undoubtedly make positive comments on the transition. This might be followed by a period of post-operative psychotherapy.

The control group might occasionally talk with a social worker or counselor they would not receive the level of support providing by the treatment team.

If trans is really a cluster B personality disorder, any change to a person's life requiring frequent medical and social support would probably decrease negative outcomes.

I'd like to see wrap-around dialectical behavior therapy evaluated against SRS and see if SRS is really better.

When assessing something like suicide risk in a client with PTSD and depression, I'd rather look at the last two weeks of sleep and activity data on a client's smart watch than soley depend on interviews and questionnaires. Unfortunately that's not the way things work yet in clinical practice.

Clinical psychology and psychiatry are not at all immune to the replication crisis in social sciences more generally.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5835722/

Bullshit structured interviews, rating scales, and so forth, that attempt to indirectly assess a diagnostic contruct that only exists because that's what insurance companies reimburse for presents a huge methodological threat for almost all clinical psychology.

The problem is our clients don't know themselves that well. And the way we control for this is to use methods plagued by publication bias.

It just truly shows how little you know about what you're talking about. Think about it this way, you understand so little about the states of other people because you're biggest problem in life is how little sleep you get. Obviously sleep affects people a lot and having little sleep can be very damaging to your psyche but your inability to realise that other peoples mental states are very different to yours is why no one takes the idea seriously that you can accurately assess peoples mental states from a fucking smart watch

>Quality of life of individuals with and without facial feminization surgery or gender reassignment surgery (Ainsworth&Spiegel 2010)

>Methods
Facial Feminization Surgery outcomes evaluation survey and the SF-36v2 quality of life survey were administered to male-to-female transgender individuals via the Internet and on paper. A total of 247 MTF participants were enrolled in the study.
>Results
Mental health-related quality of life was statistically diminished (P < 0.05) in transgendered women without surgical intervention compared to the general female population and transwomen who had gender reassignment surgery (GRS), facial feminization surgery (FFS), or both. There was no statistically significant difference in the mental health-related quality of life among transgendered women who had GRS, FFS, or both. Participants who had FFS scored statistically higher (P < 0.01) than those who did not in the FFS outcomes evaluation.

Doesn't seem to measure suicidality, inpatient stays,drug abuse, or somewhat reliable indirect measures of well-being such as earnings.

But am I reading this right that facial surgery alone had as good as outcomes as SRS? lol.

Yes and no. It's likely caused by a behavior altering infection, as yet unknown. Its likely to be a virus, bacteria, fungus or protozoa. Many such instances occur in nature where some parasite infects their host and alters their behavior, thus causing a "mental illness", but really its just a disease which has an impact on the brain.
As a very relevant example, there is a fungus called Massospora, which infects cicadas. It alters the behavior of male cicadas so they imitate female sexual behavior. Then unsuspecting males attempt to mate with them, and this helps spread the fungal spores and perpetuate the life-cycle of the fungus.

Toxoplasma gondiiis another example of altering sexual behavior. It increases risk taking behavior and makes rats sexually attracted to cat urine, making them more likely to be eaten by cats, which in turn spread the virus through their feces.

I'm going to answer this statement seriously since I've heard it a lot before, even from my retard friend who turned out to be trans (the retardation and body dysphoria not necessarily related but probably are).
I've done my best to imagine a world in which I woke up tomorrow and found myself in a body of a girl, no strings attached. I would probably first explore my new body, still attracted to women so probably masturbate quite a bit since it's quite interesting. Past that, I would probably be a fair bit distressed since I don't want to be cute or dress up like a girl. I would likely dress androgynous (short cut, jeans, t-shirt) to try and be masculine as possible without standing out too much.
What I would never, ever fucking do, however, is inject myself with testosterone, go through horrid surgeries, or anything like that to become a plastic horror. These things take up so much of my life in medical expenses and time, all so I can feel a tiny bit more like my old self. I would sooner adjust to my new body and get on with my fucking life, since I have desires and aspirations. I want to become a novelist and publish something people enjoy. I want to get a high paying job in cryptography and be a well respected individual. To waste all my life trying to pursue such trivial outward changes to my body with such high inward cost.
And yes, I also want to begin a relationship with a woman. Unfortunately that might be out of my hands, as to find a lesbian/bi woman that would be willing to date a weird ass "girl". But there is almost nobody, less than 1% (and my source is some study I saw, afraid I forgot identifying information so you're gonna have to believe me) of the straight population is willing to date a person after they go through trans shit to "look like" the opposite gender. Almost everyone willing to date a trans person will already be willing to date you in your previous form.

>schizophrenia IS actually cured at higher rates in less developed countries when family and friends are more accepting

Having gender dysphoria and simply existing in a society that doesn't accept it properly is a source of trauma. That trauma alone is enough to cause mental illness. It may be very hard to empathize or understand the nature of this trauma if it's never happened to you, and it may be easy to assume the source of this trauma is being transgendered, but it's not. It's societies reaction to being transgendered that's the source. That feeling that you are being rejected by society simply for being YOU has a way of really messing you up.

The simple solution that impacts society the least is a rapid application of a dose of lead. Instead of telling over six billion people to change society to conform to a handful of mentally ill, removing them from society is much more effective and much less disruptive. It's also the most commonly used solution throughout human history for those who insist on social disruption and ignore the more mild forms of pushback they receive. It is their ultimate fate because it is the one they're pushing society into choosing.

It's tied heavily to mental disease and autism, but instead of treating the underlying disease we encourage the deviant behavioral symptoms.

Charisma is an OP stat and if it we were literally talking RPG stats, it's way more useful in a society that doesn't hunt or wage war. That being said, tranny surgery would probably impose a charisma penalty instead of a boost due to the obvious uncanny valley effect.

There probably isn't a science describing mental states accurately. Psychology isn't a science so that can't be used to explain their condition, and neuroscience is far too incomplete and complex even at the microcosmic level to even hope to explain something more intricate like gender dysphoria.

The only possible explanation that can be given is from speculative disciplines, like the aforementioned psychology, and philosophy.

probably just str, con, int, and wis get nerfed
the idea is that you trade that for dex and char going up, but in reality char takes a massive dive and dex doesn't even go up. im thinking int and wis would already be low af anyway and str and con wouldnt go down much. so in reality you're just taking 5 points off char.

Leg bone extension actually gives you few cm in height. But if bone extension surgery was like sex reasigment surgery, they would trim off your muscles so that you turn from mesomorph to ectomorph in bodyshape, but don't actually gain the height you are looking for at the end of it.

They have been redpilled on how gross the "gender" thing is.

"We were all depressed"
Translation: We had a very strange irrational attachment to the imaginary "boy" spirit that we forced onto you, instead of the arrangement of cells that defines the individual human you are
e.g. my family members bounced around all day deriving happiness from the "boy" shit , even when they were thousands of miles away from me, and that's gross. As if there's an invisible wire connecting my boy spirit to them at all times.

Somebody tell me what the difference between gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia is such that BD is treated by acceptance of your current state (because adjusting your physical state in a case like weight loss is what leads to e.g. anorexia, and in most cases the feeling of dysmorphia will never go away), whereas GD is treated by altering your current, unaccepted state? And the irony is that altering your appearance is far more attainable than altering your gender, and yet is not an acceptable treatment.
