Transabled
People with Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID), choose to self-identify as handicapped, and should be provided transableism-affirming care to assist their bodily transformations. For instance, BIID patients may request amputation of healthy limbs, transection of spinal cords, or removal of sight capability. It is offensive to suggest that they may be suffering from a mental disorder, despite their strong subjective feelings, and denying their requests likely increases suicide and depression rates.
