It's not like sexual attraction. Sexual attraction is real, thinking you're a woman when you're not is not. It's an extreme delusion that you're something else than what you are and it shouldn't be encouraged. But I'm not saying that all people who go through such transformations do so because of such a delusion. It's perfectly okay to understand that you're a woman, for example, and yet wish to change your sex for whatever reason. Again, the point about my saying don't judge me if I'll think it weird, is you shouldn't judge anyone for that. It is weird for me as it is for a lot of other people. But that's not really the point. The real point is which of the people who seek to change their sex are mentally healthy and which are mentally ill. And that should be established by professionals, if any of them are indeed ill. I might very well be wrong, but I strongly doubt it. If I am wrong, all the better, the whole world can change their sex for all I care(well, not all, I hope, but you get what I mean) - as long as they're cognizant of what their sex is to begin with and so on.
