Some people seem to think it's insulting to describe people as having mental problems. But what is gender dysphoria if not a mental problem? It's not an insult to suggest someone might be mentally ill, there's no judgement involved, it's something that needs to be treated and cured, especially when it's affecting society to such a deleterious end.

Not that such an agreement is necessarily a terrible idea. But we haven't been involved in the discussion. Gnats the point. These rules of etiquette are imposed by the same people silencing and smearing people like me.
