Mental illness comes from many things... genetics, culture, brain chemistry imbalance, emotional issues, trauma, etc. Thenthere are levels... mild to severe, and possibly absolute psychosis. Then there is violent and non-violent.
It's complicated.
This man believes he is a woman trapped in a man's body.
As a "woman" , he is exuberant and tasteful (as compared to the troll in Canada with the DDDD prosthetic breasts which are indicative of much deeper and alarming issues).
Where on the spectrum of mental illness does one judge someone to be sane or insane?
I don't condone the idea of pushing a transgender agenda, and I certainly don't condone children being groomed to be transgender. This guy is not a problem. At least not in this video. That's my opinion anyway. Is it mental illness, or something different? It might be a mental status, but is he happier, and is he a source of goodness to others? May he is, maybe he's not. When do we get to judge? Exactly... we don't.
There are a lot of "normal" people who have evil secrets... and they point at and judge a person like this. There is a better way. Stop being so self-righteous. Start taking a stand where it counts... in the systems that govern our communities, and pay no extra attention to the transgender who wants to explore whatever it is that is compelling him or her. The more attention you give them, the more it becomes a powerful issue and beacon to attract confused youngsters.
I am sure the downvotes and idiotic responses are headed myway. But I expect that from this crowd. You're all perfect and very capable of throwing the first stone. And in doing so, you totally miss my point which is, again, that this issues is too complex to sum up as mental illness, and that rather than give it a lot of attention, spend your time ensuring that the basic systems in our communities are not overrun by the momentum that you helped create by drawing attention to it.

When someone denies self evident biological reality, pretends unironically that they are something that they're not, twists the use of language to justify their delusions, and expects/demands that others placate and participate in his denial of reality, I would say that's a pretty good indicator of insanity.
There are a lot of people who have evil secrets
But the LGBTQ+ crowd is not keeping their evil secret. That's the problem.
... pay no extra attention to the transgender who wants to explore whatever it is that is compelling him or her.
That's how we got to our current situation with these mentally ill people grooming children.
Urging someone to "explore" denial of reality or "explore" their own mental illness is not healthy for them. There's a reason the post-op suicide rate is just as high as pre-op.
"Whatever is compelling"... I'll tell you what is compelling a significant number of LGBTQ+ people today... the fact that belonging to that group makes you fashionable and unassailable. Those who identify as gay or trans are rendered immune from criticism and worshiped by our culture. And you always get more of what you worship (or allow to be worshiped).
"him or her"... How dare you exclude non-binary genderfluid demiqueers, bigot.
Your assertions are not wrong, but they are also not blanket-correct.
Like I said to someone else... these misguided individuals are not powerful. They are pawns being used (and stoked) by powerful people with an agenda to corrupt our values. The guy in this video is just as much a victim as we are.
These people have INCREDIBLE power. They may be pawns of the elite, but they have total control over average schlubs like us. And that's who the elite want dead and finished.
This is a very complicated topic.

#4... funny. I did laugh.

Sorry to jump into this conversation, too, but if you think they don't have power, then I advise you to read this article:
