[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve noticed a trend of people with severe mental illness identifying as transgender. And no I don’t mean they have depression or anxiety. Many people have those. I’m talking about schizophrenia and people that say they are “systems” aka disassociate identity disorder aka multiple personalities. How does someone with DID or so schizophrenia even know they’re transgender? How does someone like that have the ability to provide consent at any age?[/quote] I think there are some people whose brains are wired such that they reject the typical rules and categories, or those rules/categories simply don’t make sense or ring true to them. They may perceive gender identity as one of those “rules”. I read something on Reddit written by someone who is autistic and trans, and that is how they explained it. For people with severe mental illness, rejection of rules/categories may be part of a larger splitting with reality. I’m not saying this is the case for everyone who is trans, just that for some people there may be this relationship due to brain wiring. [/quote]
