Mental disorders are a social construct. Gender is too. That means they are "real" but only insofar as we ascribe meaning to them collectively as a society.

Why do you think The Gay is no longer considered a mental disorder? Do you think we just... discovered something out in the rainforest that proved Gay to be Normal? No, we recognized that it's a bigoted and harmful way to respond to human behavior.

Also, the reason people don't want to engage with you is because you're a giant fucking twat repeating some of the most hateful rhetoric while claiming civility. Go fuck yourself you loathesome piece of garbage. If you really think you're queer then you really must be one of the most self-hating pieces of shit on Lemmy.
