Reply To: If you could be “cured” or your crossdressing, would you take the cure?

The use of the word ‘cure’ strongly implies that there is something basically wrong with someone like having insomnia or having some terrible life-threatening disease.  The question is who gets to define whatever that ‘wrong’ thing is? Frontal lobotomies or electric shock treatments were used to ‘cure’ people, as well as the use of all sorts of now prohibited drugs being used to ‘cure’ people. For there to be a cure there has to be a well accepted and acknowledged disease. I can only hope that in today’s climate, that being anywhere on the LGBTAI+ spectrum that none is ever considered a disease, because I can just imagine all the ‘cures’ being promulgated if that occurs.
