I disagree to the modern interpretation

The basic is boy, girl, biological identity and that is good for society to work with when it comes to gender identity.
The rest is more of a personal thing, how someone self identifies.
So why all the flipping out and the push for the big societal changes if people aren't flipping out about the mismatch?

Do you also disagree that the Earth revolves around the sun?
Did you give me something to look at?
Did the egg come first or the hen?

Sex assignment surgery, usually
And not what they "feel" but rather what they "are".

It's been provided throughout. All I see is a bunch of you thinking you know better than researchers, physicians, psychologists, and others who work with this topic.

Evolution answers that well and reveals we definitely had eggs before chickens existed.
It's a strange question. I don't get how that one lives either.

If they're consistent and treat like they do mental health in general then yes.

So, what makes you know better than the experts? What insights, studies, and revelations do you have to provide to the world of medicine?
Not even remotely true. Sex assignment for intersex is often arbitrary (based off whatever the doctor thinks 'looks right.') and traumatic precisely because how they feel matters. Most intersex groups are looking to ban routine sex change surgeries for intersex babies for this reason.
Surgeries on Intersex Infants are Bad Medicine
Sex, gender, and medical interventions for young people have been wildely discussed in state legislatures this year, with a record number of states introducing bills which would limit or prohibit gender-affirming care for transgender youth. Gender-affirming care is supported and recognized as...

US: Harmful Surgery on Intersex Children
Doctors in the United States continue to perform medically unnecessary surgeries that can inflict permanent harm on intersex children, Human Rights Watch and interACT said in a report released today. Despite decades of controversy over the procedures, doctors operate on children’s gonads...
Why Are Doctors Still Performing Genital Surgery on Infants?
Medical studies show that performing genital reshaping surgery on intersex children at birth or soon after usually causes psychological damage to patients. Yet this remains the standard of care in most countries, despite protests from patient advocates.
Honestly I just wish you'd do a tiny bit of research before commenting so assuredly about things you've never looked into.
Hormonal treatment is not surgery. Nor is it “child mutilation” as you previously claimed.too many:
Number of transgender children seeking treatment surges in U.S.
About 42,000 U.S. children ages 6 to 17 were diagnosed with gender dysphoria in 2021, nearly triple the number in 2017, a unique data analysis for Reuters found.www.reuters.com
Even hormonal treatment has long term effects:
What are these long term affects of hormonal treatment you claim? Specifically I mean.
If I recall my biology class correctly, all medicine comes with side affects.
You want to ban cancer treatment because it causes nausea, hair loss and other detrimental side affects?
Speaking of biology class, if I stated that there is only XY or XX in the human species, I would have flunked even the most basic of high school tests. This is over 10 years ago now. Have you seriously not ever heard of pseudo hermaphroditism, for example?
How about Swyer Syndrome?
XY chromosomes, but fully female on the outside, except for external gonads that are typically removed at birth so puberty can occur without issue.
Like damn, I was learning about all the potential outcomes in human beings back in like grade 10.

Only short term:
How long do side effects last on hormone therapy?
Side effects will usually last for as long as you are on hormone therapy. If you stop your hormone therapy, your testosterone levels will gradually rise again and some side effects will reduce. Your side effects won’t stop as soon as you finish hormone therapy – it may take several months.

You didn't answer the question. Instead, you answered a question that nobody asked.too many:

I asked you a question about what you said. Hence the question mark. Perhaps you could clarify then. That's why people ask questions.
