But you would have to be willing to except a lie to agree with this concept. Gender and sex are and have always been tied together. Trying to change the definition will never change the science.
The sex is science. Gender in the binary sense has absolutely not been always been tied to sex as there are cultures around the world that have 2,3 even up to 5 genders. Its not about believing a lie, its about having a change in perception. I'm not commenting on if we should accept surgical/transition as a course of treatment for trans folks especially for children, just the simply accepting them as the gender they identify.

Sone cultures believed in ritualistic child sacrifice too. Bad ideas are bad ideas.

And until a few years ago the DSM listed trans as a mental illness. Using history isn’t a great argument. I don’t care at all what someone wants to identify as. And I have no opinion on whether the DSM was right or wrong. Just leave the kids alone.

I live in the United States where gender and sex have always been tied together. " A change in perception" is just another way to say let's change the definition to fit our agenda.
Have you noticed in America they call a new pregnancy reveal " Gender reveal" and not " sex of baby reveal". Do you think a doctor sends a social question form down the ultrasound tube or do they look for a penis to decide gender. You can identify as what ever you choose but you do not have the right to demand I agree with it. There are 2 genders, male and female, anything else is mental illness. Approving the mental illness doesn't help the ill.

Most of these examples are pretty unconvincing. They’re usually tied to ceremonial roles in non-Western religion and share far more in common with the idea of a tomboy or femme than a transgender as we define trans in our culture.
