I think I see the reasoning Jake: a very fat person may "feel" better from eating 2 dozen chocolate donuts and vats of deep-fried chicken, but they do not "become" better.

If anything it makes them worse by allowing their confusion to become the norm. If you think that your a fifth gender, then maybe we need to look into the seated issue that isn't allowing you to settle on male or female. Maybe instead of saying cool, you can be your own thing and then sue anyone who tells you different and force colleges to put a circle that says "fifth gender" on their applications so you don't feel left out, maybe we say "Look, we understand that you don't quite know how to feel, lets talk through it and figure out what's going on."

What to do if those who are diseased do not think they are? What if they think *you* are the abnormal. Then this becomes something that can't be talked through.
