Imagine being trapped your entire life in a prison? That is what I am imagining this must feel like.
It's a lot like PTSD: The "damage" is done earlier on, but even after the brutality or trauma stops, one still experiences symptoms in the present moment. You simply do NOT tell someone to "just suck it up" or "just get over it" or "just accept it" or JUST anything at all. That is not how any of this works.
Whether it's someone who's traumatized through childhood abuse, or combat trauma (oh wait, I just remembered your viewpoint here too), or a rape (oh wait, I remembered that too),… or how about POWs (hmm, this isn't working is it?)….In reality, founded in science, one does not simply get to gloss over trauma. MOST people can get through it okay, BUT we cannot deny those who are deeply affected.
For many people, there's so much damage attached to the trauma of being trapped, that there's bound to be problems down the line. That's why I'm heavy in support of things like therapy and psych evals, etc.
Surgery may actually be the answer for some individuals. Not all, but some.

We're not talking here about someone with trauma or a physical defect. We're talking about people born with healthy bodies who for some reason or another can't accept themselves and their bodies.
It's as if a guy is 5'6" and wishes he was 6 feet tall. My advice to that guy is learn to love yourself and appreciate what you have.
I finally watched that video of a male-to-female sex change you posted. It sickened me that doctors are actually cutting up healthy human genitalia like that.
There is no such thing as a wrong body. You are your body. Accept yourself.

Why would someone like Jazz, who was so little, feel she's a girl instead of the boy's body she was born with?
Caitlyn suppressed who she was almost her entire life as to not upset others.
She immersed herself in athletics and became an Olympic Gold Champion! She had a nice, masculine body but she didn't want that body, she wanted her body, a body to match her mind and heart

Sorry, but that makes no sense. The transgender movement tells us that gender has nothing to do with genitals. So fine, a child can have a penis and feel like a girl. I have no problem with that. But if genitals have nothing to do with gender, why is society telling anyone they must mutilate their genitals to be the gender they feel inside? This is a logical oxymoron.
Accept your body and get on with life. This self obsession is mentally unhealthy and probably why 40% of transsexuals attempt suicide even after the surgery. Genitals are not their problem. Their problem is self acceptance.
