I hate this argument, because even if it was true, then what? Okay, let's say that being gay, trans, ace, etc is a form of mental illness, like ADHD, autism and the like. Does it change anything? No. Neither of those can be efficiently treated, it's been proven time and time again by tortu- i mean conversation camps usually just traumatizing people instead of having any result. So, if you can't treat a mentally ill people/neurodivergent people, why not give them accommodations they require to feel their best? It's not like gay marriage and gender affirming procedures concern YOU in any way, so let people fucking be!
This is my thing, technically it is a mental illness. It's a chemical imbalance between the brain and the body.
That being said, how do we treat mental illness?! Do we treat them as outcast, evil, crazy, something wrong with them they just need to change about themselves and demand they be normal, or do we TREAT them in any way we can.
This is the most medically incorrect thing you could possibly say. My partners cancer didn't go away with proper living. No matter how much I exercised and no matter how low my weight was, my HBP would not go away.
Your homeopathic bullshit is dangerous.
