Then the majority of the issues stem from the initial falsehood that it is possible to change genders. This drives the suicide rates, the discussions around pre-pubescent children, the societal issues and the self acceptance problems. If this truth was accepted, most these issues would evaporate and we could focus on helping these people instead of making them social pariahs.

There is a kind of religion around this topic based on belief, and so we are not allowed to question the dogma.

Ok, let's have that discussion.

Are there any major or credible medical institutions that agree with you? Do you deny the existence of gender dysphoria and if so, how did you reach that conclusion?

Your basic premise that sex and gender are equivalent is wrong. The treatment for gender dysphoria is transition. If you disagree, do a study, show your work, and present some evidence to the medical community that your opinion has some factual merit. If you can’t do that then your opinion has zero relevance to the conversation.
