Why we, a traumagenic system with DID, support all system types:
We're not in your head. We have no idea what is going on over there. Therefore we can't judge.
But for those that this explanation is just too simple:

But for those that this explanation is just too simple:
Science researches traumagenic systems only because living with trauma is extremely hard and has a host of other symptoms that generally cause increased switching and dissociation. Those symptoms lead them to seek help.
Lack of research doesn't mean lack of existence

Think about how a child tries to figure out the world. We have arbitrary expectations of children. When they don't fit that mold they try desperately to figure out how to make life work. Sometimes that means parsing out bits of themselves.
added to previous: Not every child is going to figure it out and integrate by age 9.
Traumagenic systems are notorious for hiding trauma from the host and other headmates. there's a reason for this. Telling them about their trauma or forcing them to "face" it can cause lifelong damage. Those systems may see themselves as endogenic.
Every system regardless of origin has the right to use whatever language they want. Some have chosen endogenic simply because they don't want to be grouped with system medicalist drama.
No one gets to judge who is plural or not, what language they use.
You do not get to judge someone's existence! If you found the way your system works and the journey you want to take to functionality that's awesome and it is entirely your business.

We exist regardless of what other people say. We exist regardless of if singlets believe in us. We exist regardless of what science says now or in the future.
We exist
You exist.
We exist
You exist.
