Nope. Natural law takes precedent here. Everyone knows what a man is, what a woman is, and what pretending is. A tiny minority of people with mental health problems don't get to redefine the world as we know it.
There is more to a woman than a lack of a penis, wearing makeup and stuffing the chest with silicone.
Males and females are clearly defined. Just ask the trannys that are transitioning between the two.

I'm tempted to discuss this with you, but I get the impression you are either a troll or are simply too set in your mindset to accept anything I might say.
Also, this reply doesn't really disprove my point. Gender identity, which is separate from biological sex, is a proven fact. Just pretending that the body is all that matters is shortsighted.

That's an interesting debate. For the most part, I'd say that the mind is in control. Though the body can sometimes influence the mind (like releasing hormones) or the mind can misread a bodily reaction (e.g, mistaking fear for arousal).

But I never actually disagreed with your point... I just said I'd need to see reliable, statisitcal evidence of it, rathering than just forming one based on acedote.
However, some quick googling found this, which in turn cites a study suggesting that the gap between MtFs and FtMs seems to be narrowing over time. One must also keep in mind that things aren't quite as simple as simply requesting the surgery, as it assumes that each and every trans person does. Some might feel scared or unable to do so, that could influence the numbers, somewhat.
Speaking of ignoring things, I see you're ignoring my point about there being more of a connection between FtM trans people and autism than with MtF ones. Why's that, buspup?

lol. Why so put off by what I said? There's nothing wrong with who happens to have higher rates of autism. It's not a contest to be won, or anything. It's just a thing that is.
There are more male autistics than female autistics, yes. But as I said, in the context of "the extreme male brain theory", there being a link between FtMs and autism makes sense. The extreme male brain theory basically says that autism can be considered an extreme form of the "male mindset" which, compared to the "female mindset", is higher is systemising but lower in empathy. This theory was an attempt at explaining why there are many more male autistics than female ones. And since FtMs could be considered to have a "male brain", it ties in nicely.
Now, the extreme male brain theory definitely has some very valid criticisms, so I'm not saying it's a perfect theory or can explain this. But, to me, it seems a possibility as to why there seems to be the stronger link between FtMs and autism than with MtFs.

Mtf's want to use womens restrooms and lockerrooms because they claim that "cis" men are a threat to them. But until someone proves otherwise, why have to assume that trans women commit the same types of crimes. So by trying to protect trans women, you are putting real women in danger.
You used the words creepy, autistic, and fetish like those words were inaccurate. But many males who dress in drag (trans or not) could be described with those terms.

reminds me of when homosexuality was considered a mental condition (even in the DSM) and linked with pedophilia and a whole host of mental disorders.
I understand a lot of MtFs look bad and I can see why women would be uncomfortable about them in bath and changing rooms. But the fact that some MtFs do it for a fetish or a kink doesn't, in my opinion, delegitimize transsexuality.

Perhaps they can set up a system where they get an RFID chip implanted after surgery and when you see a tranny you can whip out your phone and hit the LLM app and it will scan and if it picks up the chip the screen will turn green and it will say "safe tranny" but if there's no chip the scren will flash red and emit a 110dB panic siren.
