I see, so we shouldn’t get kids plastic surgery if they have a non-life threatening but ugly deformity because thinking your own body is wrong is completely internal and has nothing to do with how society thinks of you.
In the other, your own body is wrong. This is completely internal, and that part of the problem has nothing to do with how society thinks about you – even if society’s opinion can of course make it worse.
Someone with a deformity thinks their own body is wrong. That is completely internal. How did society tell them that deformity is wrong? Actually- let’s go with an easier one. Nose jobs. We allow teenage girls to get nose jobs when they feel their own body is wrong. That is completely internal too. And yet it’s a very common practice that, unlike any sort of medical treatment for transgender kids, requires no psychological counseling whatsoever.
So you should be very, very against the harm that nose jobs cause to children. It could make what society thinks of them worse, right?
Again- you said thinking your body is wrong is completely internal. Therefore children should not ever get any form of plastic surgery unless it is life-threatening. This is your reasoning, except you’re only applying it to trans kids.

You implied those things based on your reasoning. I even showed you why.

There is no distinction.
