A question to trans people:Are all instances of sex/gender dysphoria innate? Or are some a reaction to the environment, e.g. internalized misandry, internalized feminism, internalized homophobia, strong lesbian porn fetish and so on?If not all dysphoria is innate, what do you think should be done about this?// cis people please don't speak over trans people

>>36649569That's just spacing that makes sense in longer texts. But here? Not at all
idk idc. whys it matter
I have no ability to answer that question. Nor do I care. Transition saved my life, I know many people whove had the same experience. The only thing I can tell you is it made me happier and more content.
>>36649391gender dysphoria is, at its core, a disconnect between identities - the identity you view yourself as and the identity others view you as havingthat can be caused by many things, and can be ADDRESSED by many thingsit's not at all uncommon for people with ADHD/Autism to transition, and you see a lotta people try to claim thats the 'true source' of all gender dysphoria - its not, but it definitely is in the mixpeople with either of those things will almost universally feel a disconnect from everyone else, and frequently feel misunderstood by others, and especially if undiagnosed, can lead them to looking for answers in the form of transition as it happens, for a lotta people, with how their tism/adhd manifests, this actually does help because the 'weird' parts of them that made that disconnect manifest become less of an issue post transition - autistic guys tend to be more quiet, less macho, nerdier, possibly more sensitive, etc. so while they aren't necessarily excluded from being male, they get treated bad in no small part because of how they act, and they realize that if a woman acted as they did no one would bat an eye - so the answers obviousfetishization is also something that does happen but I dont really know much about that, nor do I really care to - there's a lotta weird fetishes, and some people can have a weak connection to gender, and mixed together, pretty obvious outcomefinally, internalized misandry/misogyny/homophobia/etc lines up with the neurodivergent stuff because its seeing how people view your assigned gender, recognizing that YOU arent like that, even without tism, and getting distressed about everyone viewing you as if you were, more common in mtfs obviously because misandry goes unchallenged and its in vogue to shit on men and make them out to be the worst people possible
>>36649391No, for MtTs it’s social contagion and mental illness/ROGD
gender dysphoria is a way of talking about internalized homophobia and misandry without directly admitting it
no, all of them are reactions to environment >what should be donenothing
>>36650483What should be done is fixing homophobia instead of castrating gays so straight people hate us less.
>>36650489My new theory: gincel is an ftm
>>36650489i think being gay is a reaction to the environment too and atill think nothing should be done
