Recognizing Transgenderism as a mental disorder and affirming the biological reality of two genders.

There are only two biological sexes, male and female, and these have been the case since the beginning of human history as described in the Bible.

Transgenderism, understood as a conflict between one's biological sex and gender identity, is a condition that requires careful psychological evaluation, [...] not blind affirmation.

"Sex" and "gender" mean the biological classification of male or female in the context of reproductive potential or capacity, which is determined by sex genes, naturally occurring sex hormones, gonads, and nonambiguous internal and external genitalia present at birth, without regard to an individual's psychological, chosen, or subjective experience.

These terms are to be considered synonymous.

Prohibition on treatment of persons under the age of 18 for gender dysphoria or gender discordance.

There is an obvious self-fulfilling nature to encouraging a young boy with [gender dysphoria] to socially impersonate a girl and then institute pubertal suppression. [...] The repeated behavior of impersonating a girl alters the structure and function of the boy's brain in some way-potentially in a way that will make identity alignment with his biologic sex less likely.

The idea that mental health problems, including suicidality, are caused by gender dysphoria rather than the other way around [...] is currently popular and politically correct. It is, however, unproven and as likely to be false as true.
