Gender affirming therapy is a proven intervention to save lives. What people tell me about their experience of gender doesn't match my own, and I think there is room for other paradigms of gender. But that doesn't fucking matter in the face of saving people from suicide. Whatever alternative you want to suggest has to save lives. It doesn't matter if it matches your personal gender theories or not. That's irrelevant. Gender therapy exists to save lives.
