I use these words interchangeably (woman, female, man, male) when talking about adults because that's what a woman is, an adult human female. If you disagree with my definition of woman, could you define it for me? (In a way that has meaning, you can't include the word in the definition of the word)

But let me test your beliefs. If you can change genders, can you change back? At any time? And does it happen in an instant? Can you change back and forth at will or when it suits you? Also don't most trans people believe they've always been the other gender? So they never actually go through any kind of transition right? If gender is something that occurs in the mind, why do trans people try to conform to the opposite sex they were born into? If a woman can be anything why do trans women try to look feminine?
I just want to see how crazy you are. Because some trans people believe you can be gender fluid and go from being a man to a woman back to a man again all in the blink of an eye. Do you believe that? Do you think I'm bigoted and deserving of disdain and ridicule for thinking that someone believes that is crazy?

Yes it is a mental disorder to think you are something that you are not. When your view of reality does not conform to reality you have mental dysfunction caused by some form of mental illness. It's not complicated.
For example if you are trans blind and you think you're a blind person born in a seeing person's body, you are mentally ill. And having a doctor pour a chemical solvent into your eyes in order to blind you so that you can conform to your mental illness identity is wrong and medical malpractice. Just like doctors that chemically castrate children and chop off their healthy body parts, it's wrong. You are part of the problem because you promote this mental disorder.

It's is a contraction of the words "it is" as in "It is (or it's) mental illness to think you're the opposite sex". How did I use that incorrectly?
