I asked you to present evidence of your claim that higher suicide rates among trans people were due to hormone treatments rather than abuse. Where is your data?
The study I heard was from a Scientist in Australia who was primarily against transgender hormonal treatments for children and adolescents, because he claim it had an adverse impact on brain development. He then extrapolated this to the hormone treatments, in general, altering thought patterns, which could lead to increased suicide.
The problem is, Transgender augmentation is a growing industry, where the more units sold, means more money being made. Even if he was right, money comes first, until they are forced to reevaluate. If the industry could convince parent to treat babies it would mean more $$$$, They will say this is safe.
In my experience, two people can be brought up in the same environment and circumstances, yet each can person turn out differently. This means that the external input is only part of the story. There is also internal processing which can be different for two different people. Some people are more or less sensitive and will process the same data differently. It makes sense that hormonal treatment could alter how the input data is perceived and processed. This change in perception can make harassment harder to take from the internal side of the equation.
Consider alcohol, a few drinks is enough to alter behavior in terms of externally generate data. Some people will be more aggressive to the same words. Others will laugh and let things bounce off them, easier. Others will overcome inhibitions, etc. If you are messing with the limbic system, trying to turn a male body into a female, there will a change in the background emotional valence, from which data is processed.
A trans "female", who had previously been a male, will requires adaptation to the new emotional valence set point of a female. The original person held firm to their conviction in spite of the odds and harassment. Once they made the change, now they second guess their previous resolve. The outside world does not necessarily change. A successful transformation should place them more under the radar, and should be less stressful, all else equal. That was the goal of all the conviction and augmentation.
When memory is created, aspects of the limbic system will add emotional tags to the sensory content. Our memory is composed of feeling and content. If we stagger the emotional set point, with hormones of the opposite sex, the writing process is altered in a way that will take getting used to. In the short term, the same sensory data can be written differently due to the altered set point.
A female going through her monthly cycle will react differently to the same external data depending on where in the cycle she is. Hormone treatment staggers the cycle. The change in physically written to memory, storing a different POV, that can soon be overwhelming.
