    There is no scientific evidence for gender ideology.  Feelings are not facts.  One of the 10 common thinking distortions that causes mental distress is "mistaking feelings for facts."  A lot of evidence shows that there are psychological causes for gender dysphoria - you can't treat a psychological problem with a physical solution.  Imagine if people who have panic attacks - they really FEEL like they are having a heart attack - were given heart surgery.
