• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

This has been going on for a long time. It used to be called transsexualism. Then it became Gender identity Disorder. And for political reasons it was altered to Gender Dysphoria. There is a movement to remove it from DSM completely and just make it a varient.
Yes, the nomenclature changes over time, why is this an issue?

Actually it's based on national medical standards of treatment.
Standards of treatment from an transactivist organization that the rest of the world has deemed unreliable at best. They've rejected the standard of treatments.
Source? I've asked for the proof that the majority will change their mind and you have yet to provide it. It's again a personal conjecture.
And I've told you you need to start doing your own research. I've provided evidence for everything else I've said. I've provided the evidence in other threads as well. It's time for you to do your own. Maybe you'll believe it then.
Instead of me providing all of the factual information, how about you prove yourself right?
Nope you said they were doing it and provided no evidence they were. How about you do that. Instead of asking me to provide sources for things I've already provided sources for.

The activists aren't in charge of the American Medical Association. Try again

You provided a source that said 80% of teens end up regretting their treatment. Don't think so.
How about you do that. Instead of asking me to provide sources for things I've already provided sources for.
I have shown you what the AMA says and the DMS=5 criteria. Time to show me yours.

No they aren't, but the AMA is using their guidelines. I've said that how many times now?
You provided a source that said 80% of teens end up regretting their treatment. Don't think so.
Yes I have. In the other threads on this very issue. And I know you have participated in them. You didn't read them or pay attention to them then. Why would you now?
have shown you what the AMA says and the DMS=5 criteria. Time to show me yours.
You said we are doing clinical research like Europe. You need to provide evidence for that or admit you don't really know.
