    I don't think it is a delusion at all. But even if you think of it as a mental health issue. Wouldn't it be more helpful to treat them in a way that makes them more comfortable? Just basic human decency. At least for me, I would feel uncomfortable or maybe even slightly offended when someone would treat me as a another gender, I don't feel part of, especially if they know better. (Not LGBTQIA, so I can't say much about that). EDIT: removed an accidentally offensive part entirely. Sorry :(

      People do way more stupid stuff with their bodies regularly.

      I don't like that you're implying that transitioning is a stupid decision.

        Sorry, I didn't mean it like that, although I'm not quite sure how I could express it differently. I'll remove the part.
