Being trans is sufficient for a diagnosis of gender dysphoria in the DSM, so yes.

The DSM used to classify homosexuality as a mental illness. Are you saying it was until they changed it?

They have published new versions over the years. They're on version 5 by now. Plenty of things have changed.

The argument is that you shouldn't base your position of acceptance on whatever the DSM says because they're demonstrably very fallible, but rather you should use your own arguments instead.
