A mental delusion is a rough thing.
But most current transgender do not suffer from Body Dis-morphia... but rather a socialised phenomena.
 
Hi, holy999. I have someone close to me who is trans. This means that they had gender dysphoria, which means that their inner perception of themselves is different than the biological sex they are. (Body dysmorphia is more in relation to eating disorders, and is different from gender dysphoria.)

Our minds are very complex. They believe that the mind holds a lot of inner concepts about ourselves, one example is body maps, which has been used to explain why people who have had limbs amputated can still feel their limbs and sometimes deal with phantom pains in their amputated limbs.
One theory is that our minds also have an internal sense of gender, similar to a body map. It may even be related to the body map, as people can sometimes feel a phantom sensation of a body part that they don't actually have.

But the reason that people with gender dysphoria transition has more to do with extreme psychological pain, and transitioning helps them deal with it better. Gender dysphoria rarely goes away completely, but for many who transition it does reduce in intensity.
People who stop transitioning or regret it more often than not de-transition because they are pressured by people around them or are in actual danger from people who dislike them being transgender.

There are also people who legitimately regret transitioning, and so it should always be something carefully considered.
 
I dunno 🤷‍♂️

I kind of think…,

Not that men must be macho and women must be super feminine but…

Gender is fundamental obviously. All this gender deconstruction makes me wonder if families Communities and society as a whole are perhaps…

Decaying somehow?

Gender dysphoria really has very little to do with femninity or masculinity. Those are gender roles, but they aren't quite the same. The only reason trans people may identify as being more masculine or feminine is because it affects the gender society sees them as.
 
I am very sorry for them and see this as a move to reduce the population and so young people are being encouraged to render themselves sterile. This is a life long joy that will always be denied them. The better choice is to surrender one's body to God and do as He wants one to do with that body. This is a pathway to great happiness and peace in life. In general, I know many atheists who have deep regrets once they reach their latter decades. They have asked me and I have to say, having surrendered my life to the Lord, I have no such regrets and my life has turned out so much better than I ever thought possible.
 
First Corinthians 6:9. All unrighteousness shall not inherit kingdom of God. I'm not judging anyone. Unless the transgender person repents, and stops their Effeminate lifestyle, and conform to God's standard. Its trip to sheol. I documented it.
 
So the word used in 1 Corinthians 6:9 that the KJV translates to "effeminate" is the Greek word Malakos
Interestingly, at least one translation translated this word as "male prostitutes".

Quote from this page below: http://www.gaymarriageandthebible.com/the-effeminate-in-1-corinthians-6 (Note: I am not promoting the site itself, the only thing I seek is the actual information on the original language and its meaning that it contains.)

"The Greek word is malakos (μαλακός 3120). Here's what Strong's has to say: "Of uncertain affinity; soft, i.e. Fine (clothing); figuratively, a catamite – effeminate, soft." On the same page in BibleHub.com we also see a longer definition from Thayer's lexicon: "soft; soft to the touch, and simply a soft raiment. Like the Latin mollis (Adj. soft, pliant, flexible, easily moved, gentle), metaphorically, and in a bad sense: effeminate, of a catamite, a male who submits his body to unnatural lewdness." My personal copy of Mounce's Dictionary says "soft; soft to the touch, delicate. metaphor: an instrument of unnatural lust, effeminate.""

"
MALAKOS – "soft":

  1. of things subject to touch: soft (soft grassy meadows, of the skin or flesh, soft-fleeced, opposite of hard or rugged ground, of marsh water, to sleep on soft bedding)
  2. of things not subject to touch: gentle (soft fair words, tender youthful looks, mild, soft, faint or delicate scent, mild climate)
  3. of persons or modes of life: soft, mild, gentle (easier to handle, of a fallen hero)
    1. in bad sense: soft ("attacked him somewhat feebly")
    2. faint-hearted, cowardly
    3. morally weak, lacking in self-control (not to give in from weakness or want of spirit, indulgences)
    4. of music: soft, effeminate ("tuned to a low pitch")
    5. of style: feeble
    6. of reasoning: weak, loose (to reason loosely)
    7. weakly, sickly"
Here is another page that is an actual lexicon:

As someone who has witnessed demonic activity you tend to believe more that transgenders are being controlled by a demonic presence. It's not always known as being possessed by a demon but I truly thing transgenders are influenced by demons.

The best thing we can do for transgenders is to pray for them, that God can heal them and they're no longer in torment over being in the wrong body.
