Your examples are just bad, because those things weren’t done with good intentions.

Also every transperson (at least everyone I know) was actually happy after social and physical transition. And I highly doubt, that people with autism were happier than before when locked into a mental asylum.

Only because some conservative idiots with no psycological expertise think being trans is bad, doesn’t mean that people shouldn’t be able to transition.

Also what else would you suggest to do if someone feels terrible in their social gender role?
