No, WHO has done an excellent job of recognizing the exact things which you invalidate. Please give evidence and examples to support your claim that they are politicizing by attempting to alleviate and bring more attention to previously neglected demographics.

From your other comment in this thread, it is clear that you are not well educated on this subject to speak with such authority. Calling somebody who feels their gender identity doesn't match their body as mentally ill is offensive and inaccurate, how can someone who is born in the wrong body be at fault? Organizations like WHO are doing a great job.
- nukeop 9y agoPrecisely an example of these definitions becoming heavily politicized, to the detriment of people suffering from disorders for which it is now unfashionable to seek a therapy for. It is offensive to you because you accept it as a dogma that is not allowed to be questioned. It leads to paradoxical, irrational treatments for disorders that could otherwise be researched and their impact minimized.
