Yeah, this is nonsense. Don't tell me this wasn't made as bait for another round of trans bashing.

Being trans isn't about gender roles. Gender roles and identity are different things. Basically nobody says that if someone doesn't conform to those, they MUST be trans; the most I've seen it used is an indicator, which is logical when we live in a society that, in some ways, expresses gender identity through gender roles and stereotypes.

Also, people don't push hormones and surgery like that. It's a frequent scare tactic people (transphobes and "concerned" people) use to pretend they're handed out like sweets, but realistically it takes a long time just to get hormones. If you're in the UK you're looking at multiple years just to get one appointment, let alone to get hormones. And then several more years on hormones before you're even eligible for any surgery.
And on top of that, trans people are very aware that those aren't a panacea that will fix everything.

This post is just bait.

How do you establish how it ~feels~ like to be a man or woman unless you're depending on stereotypes in some form. Even transmen who claim to be femme bois and transwomen who say they're butch are just using stereotypes.

You have one fucking argumentative move and it's "identify something as a culturally derived social construct and then dismiss it as a meaningless, empty stereotype"

You're looking at it the wrong way around. People express their gender identity by using the things people associate with them. In reality, pink is only a colour, for example, but society associates it with women, so someone might want to use that to express being a woman. It's not that they're saying "I like pink, therefore I'm a woman." They're just using those to express what's inside, because we're physical creatures that can't see into other people's hearts.

Plenty of people use reasoning as fatuous as 'I always liked pink, that was my clue I was trans.'
