The physicians argue that the assumption that gender dysphoria (GD)—a psychological condition in which people experience a marked incongruence between their experienced gender and their biological sex—is innate contradicts all relevant data and is based on ideology rather than science.
Studies have shown, the authors contend, that the “perspective of an ‘innate gender identity’ arising from prenatally ‘feminized’ or ‘masculinized’ brains trapped in the wrong body is in fact an ideological belief that has no basis in rigorous science.”
“GD is a problem that resides in the mind not in the body. Children with GD do not have a disordered body—even though they feel as if they do,” the doctors note. “Likewise, although many men with GD express the belief that they are a ‘feminine essence’ trapped in a male body, this belief has no scientific basis.”
“Conditioning children to believe the absurdity that they or anyone could be ‘born into the wrong body,’ and that a lifetime of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal and healthful is child abuse,” the paper argues.

When we refuse to address mental illness this is what you get.
There are 8 million gays.
I think there is a bit more to it than mental illness
Likely more than 8 million out of over 7 billion people.

The NHIS reported in July 2014 that 1.6 percent of Americans identify as gay or lesbian.
Schizophrenia is a chronic and severe neurological brain disorder estimated in 2014 to affect 1.1 percent of the population or approximately 2.6 million adults in the United States aged 18 or older.
Sounds like LGBTness could be mental illness to me. Even schizos deny their illness.

I agree with you. These poor people have been duped, brainwashed into believing they want to engage in dangerous and filthy behaviors.
It goes beyond mental illness. The elites are controlling people's minds with modern technologies such as HD television.
well I was born in the wrong body! I wanted to be born in the body of a super wealthy liberal white guy!
Being gay and transgender are not the same.
Duh it is physical and gentic science that cannot be changed. The Brain however can be a big factor here. So yes it is a mental problem.
