re: I have a serious question about mental health regarding gender specifically.

It's officially football season, so let the good natured ribbing begin.

This is the correct answer.
Why doesn’t the new DSMV have the words “gender dysmorphia?”
Because the left infiltrated health care.

We can, it's a part of what's considered Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).
BDD is a mental health condition characterized by an obsessive preoccupation with perceived flaws or defects in one’s physical appearance that are either minor or not noticeable to others (such as "feeling like" x, y, z). These perceived flaws cause significant distress and can impair daily functioning, relationships, and quality of life. This is different from a more general dissatisfaction with appearance in that BDD involves a distorted view of one’s body to the point where the individual perceives themselves as significantly flawed or unattractive despite objective evidence to the contrary.
For the trans, this is expressed with their view of Self being so distorted that they "feel like" they were "born in the wrong body".

If your brain is not allowing you to accept reality, how is that not a mental disease?
It is a blatant rejection of reality.
A rejection of an objective fact.

Well where do you do the line. Being gay used to be considered a mental illness too.

How long does it take these people to read? I don't even have an issue with long posts if they are structured and have some meaning.
But to suggest 30 seconds, maybe, of reading...on a text based website no less, is "long". Preposterous.

Dementia and Alzheimers are neurological, not psychological, conditions. They are not a personality disorder. That’s one difference.
However, to your main point, there’s no law against calling a mental illness a mental illness. If you don’t want to spare the feelings of the 1%, and I’m not saying that you should, don’t.

Do you support federal funding of long term mental health facilities?
Sure, they can take it from the 40% of the taxes they have stolen from hard working people throughout the years.
And while we're at it, let's expedite the death penalty by 90% so that we arent wasting funds for some piece of shite to rot in a facility their entire life.
Let's completely cut off all funding to any illegal alien across the country as well.
Lock up the trannies with the massive amount of money saved.

I don't know the answer to your question and I am far from an expert, but in most cases, when it involves government, changes are made when someone somewhere (whether it be through lobbyist, etc) has something to gain from it.
So if I am going to make an assumption based on the little general information we have, there are two different groups who benefit from trans people.
- Medical. This includes the doctors who do the surgeries and the companies who produce whatever meds is required to go through the transition process.
- Political. Now this I don't really understand because the percentage of the population that is trans is somewhere around 1%. 1% of 300M is what? 3M? So about the population of Louisiana. That alone doesn't make sense, but then I guess when you factor in the people who support their friends or loved ones who are trans, who would support their best interest politically. Now that creates a bigger base.
I just had to ask ChatGPT the percentage of eligible voters who voted in the presidential election since 1976. From then through 2000 the amount of people who went vote were roughly around 54% (estimated average). In 2004 it went up to 60%, 2008 62%.. I assume 9/11 played a big part in that because in 2012 and 2016 it goes back down to mid 50%.. Then bounces up to 62% in 2020 likely due to Covid and and then 2024 it looks like it goes up to around 65%.
What I am getting at, if the left is looking at how they can get more of their people out to vote, one way would be to focus on the rights of different groups. So a group like trans people would be one of those groups and since they are the party that supports gay rights, they could lump them all in one group (LGBTQ) and then all of those people can now feel like they now have a voice in politics. I know that's a lot of BS I posted, but I just had to explain myself about what I mean on political.
Again, things don't just come about without some group of people having something to gain. For a trans movement to happen, it takes more than some green haired trannies in L.A. and Portland protesting. By itself no one is going to report on that... Unless there is someone or a group of people who have something to gain.
So to sum up what I said, to answer your question, it is highly likely the reason the gender identity crisis isn't considered a mental disease is because there are people benefiting from it being what it is in the US today.

Because IT IS a mental illness.
The reason a species exists is to perpetuate the species.
The only argument against this is an emotional one.

Gender dysphoria is a mental condition, but the problem is it's gone from being <1% of the population to being a trendy political football for the left in the name of equality.
In ten years they will move on to something else.

Most of this is either made up by the person for attention, or if it's children, it's made up by their parents for attention, in which case CPS should take the kid away from the parents.

Look. This little jaunt into batshit crazyland has been fun, but it's time to call out what is blatantly abnormal behavior. Human beings cannot handle the scores of antidepressants they're probably already on, then introducing the cocktail of fabricated hormones and other anti-rejection chemicals into their fricked up brains. You can't do it. It doesn't work. It's creating numb, suicidal, homicidal maniacs and it's time to call this shite out for the insane practice that it is.
You can be gay. You can be straight. You can be not into anyone if you want. That's it. Anything else and you're a fricking looney tune and you need to be put in an institution somewhere. Keep these unhinged motherfrickers away from normal society. If they can't pick a line to get in, throw them in a fricking pen somewhere and be done with it.

A true medical disease has a physical pathology. None of the LGBTQ++ have physical pathologies. It's all spiritual evil that leads to insanity: nothing more: nothing less. If this isn't a vivid portrait of them, there isn't one.
