    Why does anyone give a shit what Sylvia Plath, a woman who died before being trans was even legal, thinks about what it means to be a girl?

    Also, she committed suicide herself, so I have no idea why you think she’s a good person to bring up.

    Also, I think it’s hilarious you’re bringing up genetics in one comment as a definition of a woman and then bringing up a fucking poet as the definer in this one.

      She lived in a different time: I’m sure if many of Gen Z lived in her time, a few of them might consider suicide; and my point is the gender dysphoria among girls might be due to sexism that’s still in society: hence the cure might not be becoming a boy, but rather reduce the sexism.

        And the scientific basis of your hypothesis is what Sylvia Plath once said?

          She said being a girl, or female, can be restraining, particularly over 50 years ago.

            You claimed to know how to “cure” transgender people (it’s not an illness, you’re being a bigot). What is the science you are using?

              I’ve made no claims of a cure for gender dysphoria, I only question if all of those who are deemed to have it actually have it.

              Why do people have bulimia? Is the basis of it psychological or sociological?

              IIUC, Lebanese women take a disproportionate amount of drugs to relieve stress. Is this some quirk among these women?

                I only question if all of those who are deemed to have it actually have it.

                Based on what scientific evidence?

                Also, you did make a claim about a cure, why are you lying?

                hence the cure might not be becoming a boy, but rather reduce the sexism.

                  Note the word “might.”

                    You might be trying to weasel out of what you said above.

          No.

          I’m presuming that we have sexism in our society and it’s affecting girls at least somewhat, but hey, what do I know?

            Yes, sexism like yours does affect trans girls. It’s good of you to recognize it.

              and what of what seems to be your cure for anti-girl sexism is to facilitate them into becoming boys?

                My “cure” is to listen to doctors since they know more than me.

                  Do you ever question your doctors?

                    To the point that I think I know what can “cure” other people? No. No I don’t. Because that would be both arrogant and stupid.
