> gender dysphoria (just like body dysphoria) is, and should be medicated and treated responsibly

I'm sure you were trying to be offensive here (no surprise here, coming from a throwaway account) but apart from it not being called that anymore (DSM-5 calls it "Gender Incongruence" now) and it not being a disorder (again, see DSM), you are mostly correct. It should be treated by medication (HRT) and social transition, and of course appropriate therapy should be provided.

> DSM is not an authority on these issues

And you, random commenter on the internet not even invested in the discourse enough to use real account and obviously trying to push your own agenda, are the authority? If you're a professional you surely wouldn't mind sharing the sources and your credentials, would you?
