Isn't Grandizer a clinical psychologist? Bring him on and lets have the discussion.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen any post on this thread in which you suggest that it's bad to be non-binary, or that it's impossible for non-binary people to be happy.
Only Foxaire says they're "deluded," etc. Everyone else is non-bigoted about non-binary people.
Some people seem to be jumping to the conclusion that therapy for non-binary people would always involve changing them into something else. I see no reason to believe this.
If they have some kind of dysmorphia or other troubled feelings associated with being non-binary, there are a number of outcomes I could foresee. It's true that in some cases they might decide they're not really non-binary, that they are better identifying as their assigned-at-birth designation or becoming trans. On the other hand they might well become more comfortable with being non-binary. It must be very difficult for some people to recognize this about themselves and accept themselves, considering how many people in the world still consider them to be "deluded."
A good outcome of therapy would be to give them the strength to be happily non-binary, and give the middle finger to people like Foxaire.
