When will people stop being delusional about this and accept that transgender people exist and are valid? The reason the vast majority of scientists support trans people is not because of systemic pressure or brainwashing, but because it has been an established and accepted fact in academia now for decades. Most scientists simply aren't fucking idiots and can understand the difference between sex and gender, and therefore refer to the psychologists and sociologists on gender because it is inherently sociological.

>B-but psychology and sociology aren't real sciences! The social sciences can't be reproduced and are therefore completely irrelevant!
The reproducibility crisis is a problem, but it's not exclusively present in the social sciences. It has also been prevalent in medicine, which I'm sure many of you would agree is still a valid form of science. Ultimately, while meta-analyses in particular can give slightly ambiguous results, it's important to recognize that it's impossible to get the literal exact same result every time when you're working with data and individuals and populations that can vary on a study-to-study basis. It also doesn't change the fact that this is the best we have to go on as of now.

>Anon, I learned in my 6th grade biology class that there are two genders!
You're thinking of sex, which is different from gender.

>What's the difference between sex and gender?
>Have trans people always existed?
>What are some other gender identities besides male and female?
>How does someone know that they are trans?
>Is being trans a mental disorder?
>Do trans people actually face discrimination?
Answers to all of these basic questions (and more) can be found in this pamphlet (https://www.apa.org/topics/lgbt/transgender) from the American Psychological Society. They even expanded it here (https://www.apa.org/about/policy/resolution-gender-identity.pdf) and included citations to peer-reviewed studies for many of the claims they make if you are interested.
