Re: Going Anon For This

Yeah, no.

Most trans people are VERY bothered by their wrong body. Critically bothered in fact, to the point of self harm, eating disorders, and sometimes depression leading to suicide. That is literally what dysphoria is. It's not "oh yeah I know I'm a man/woman ~on the inside~ so I'm ok with the fact that I don't even remotely resemble one".

No. No. A thousand times no. It's a physically painful, mentally devastating thing to have to contend with.

ayrt

goodness, I know that trans and dysphoria tend to go hand in hand
I was answering OP's question:

How does being trans* without dysphoria make sense?

Re: Going Anon For This

What I do think, curiously, is that there are different levels of dysphoria.

For example, I'm pretty sure DO have it, but it's not well, overwhelming enough to make me want to pursue i, if that make sense. It's more like...I'm bothered by having breasts and having the ability to get pregnant up to the point where it's like a clothing label that keep bugging you (I.e. it's always there).

Like, I'd love a body without breast and menstruation - but I''m not bothered about clothes or pronouns.

I identify as female, cause for all intents and purposes I am one - but I wonder if there's more folks like me, and some of them fall into that nonbinary' identification or whatever.

I'm a dysphoric female and while I definitely do not "identify" as a woman I have no plans on transitioning to live as a man. I have strongly considered transitioning, but after weighing the pros and the cons I ultimately decided against it. I hate the narrative that's being pushed where transition is the ONLY OPTION for people with sex dysphoria.

That's why I say I think there's gradations. I think for some it IS the only option, but maybe not for everyone.

I want to add though, that it manifests differently. Like some guys will be really horrified by their downstairs plumbing and not really give a shit about their chest, and some are the opposite.

It's like OCD is intrusive thoughts and intense urges to perform rituals, but the actual thoughts and rituals aren't the same from person to person.
