Identifying as something means jackshit. Even if you "identify as trans" you're not. Not unless you're actively seeking out to BE that (via HRT, surgeries, etc). A theyfab who binds but doesn't take T or chops off her breasts is just a woman LARPing.
Same thing with a theymab who's not on E or planning to get implants/orchi/whatever. Just a LARPer pretending to be trans.
We need to bring back transmedicalism already, if we are to be taken seriously and save whatever optics we can from the general public.

trvke but trannies will call you a cissoid bootlicker or whatever because they can't think for more than five seconds about optics or control their own behavior

I don’t identify as trans. I identify as a woman.
>>
>>40923498
I think it comes with age/time on HRT. I was very anti-transmedicalist back when I was babytrans, but now that I've been a troon for a longer period of time (6+ years) I start to see that transmedicalists had it right.
I wasn't much of a woman when I started E, just a crossdresser at first. I'd say the point at which you become a woman (or a man for FTMs) is when your bloodwork reflects the same levels of a cis person your age.
>>40923506
Tomato tomato. You're only a woman if your biology (ie bloodwork, hormonal levels) says so. I'd be willing to discuss the caveat of surgery on a case by case basis
>>
>>40923518
this only really works if you recognize that social transition is just as important, medically transitioning without socially transitioning at all is still kinda fake and impotent
>>
>>40923469
>A theyfab who binds but doesn't take T or chops off her breasts is just a woman LARPing.
that's called a transvestite; or: TV
>>
>>40923518
>>I'd say the point at which you become a woman (or a man for FTMs) is when you get SRS
FTFY
very clear observable definitive threshold. no srs? no transition.
>>
>>40923469
Don’t forget that if you aren’t seeking it out from the moment if your birth you are a trender trying to hide
If you don’t seek medical transition immediately you aren’t trans
Simple as
>boo boo I did t know
You didn’t know your own sex? Lmao
>>
>>40923469
It’s not “Transmedicalism” it’s just being a transsexual vs the transgender shit. It shouldn’t be a radical thing to say all trans people have dysphoria and if you don’t, you’re not trans.
>>
some would call me faketrans because I'm manmoding
>>
>>40923718
How long? Boymoding is a safety and social issue too
Well being an ugly woman sucks too
But I guess if you have been doing it since at least when you found out your not your natal sex then you arent fake
>>
>>40923730
I started HRT at 19
>>
>>40923710
This would make you transsexual
Taking HRT and socially transitioning would make you transgender
Just socially transitioning without HRT would make you a transvestite/crossdresser
Are we in the clear? Good, glad we could clear that up.

>>40923711
Incorrect and facetious
>>40923718
>>40923739
"Manmoding" still makes you more of a woman than a transvestite/crossdresser, at least under my system
>>
>>40923712
that's because transvestic fetishists are included under the transgender umbrella. for them, the garb of the opposite sex excites them. they don't identify as women, but get off on dressing up as them.

the push for greater inclusivity was a mistake. no. transvestites shouldn't be allowed to jerk off in the women's locker room. absolutely not. but the transgender trenders will cry foul and say there's no freedom in exclusion as they trample of the freedoms of transsexuals.
>>
>>40923469
Trans women who aren’t on E are valid if they’re naturally feminine
>>
>>40923779
Under this flawed logic all femboys become trans, which is just not the case. It takes more than being just a feminine male to be trans.
>>
>>40923751
>Incorrect and facetious
Why? Can I have a better critic

I take hrt but I don’t socially troon I am not trans under my ideal cause I trooned too latw
>>
>>40923469
nice. im medically trans.
i have to go get my labs done in a couple hours.
i'll probably get yelled at for being over 200pg/ml

then when i get home im shooting a fat dose into my thigh and going out for the night.
>>
>>40923469
nah that's gay and fuck you for using lain for something so laim
>>
>>40923859
lol. shoot the estradiol into your thigh, babe.
>>
>>40923711
>>40923836
Alright. Let me take it apart carefully

>Don’t forget that if you aren’t seeking it out from the moment if your birth you are a trender trying to hide
You don't know about sex or gender until you at least develop cognitive function. So, not until you're at least a toddler. By that time, you're already bombarded with gendered stuff polluting your own internal views.

>If you don’t seek medical transition immediately you aren’t trans
Some people can't, or won't, for different reasons. I don't agree with barring them outright because they didn't start injecting HRT or taking puberty blockers by age 6

>Simple as
>boo boo I did t know
>You didn’t know your own sex? Lmao
This is 100% my personal bias here, but I knew I wasn't a man, a boy, whatever, by the time I was like 7. I didn't troon out until 29 due to a mix of repping and lack of information. Does this mean I was "always a woman"? Fuck no. I can only begin to think of myself as such from the moment HRT started having visible effects. Would I have preferred to troon out sooner? You bet. But I don't think lateshits are inherently less womanly than youngshits.

Dysphoria or no dysphoria it doesn't matter. Are you actively taking steps to medically transition? Congratulations, you're trans. If you aren't, then you're cis. Simple as.
>>40923888
Make me (You can't)
>>
the correct model is transbiologism

transmedicalism implies

"we need medical gatekeeping"
"being trans is a medical issue"
"you must receive the medical diagnosis of 'gender dysphoria' or 'gender incongruence' to be trans"

trans biologism reframes it from a medical or social issue to a physical-transhumanist issue. it simply states

"you must physically transition with cross-sex sex hormones to be trans"
>>
>>40923896
Thank you anon, you taught me something useful today. Scratch the part where the OP says transmedicalism and instead put down transbiologism, as it seems to align more with my views
Sincerely, OP
>>
>>40923469
Transmedicalism is pretty misguided in my mind. Throwing away actual solidarity and sowing division for the sake of purity tests gets nobody anywhere. Attempting so hard to fit into assigned societal roles or living up to ideals just leads to the sort of behavior that causes so many conservatives to hate trans people altogether. There's absolutely nothing wrong with affirming and validating the identities of a theyfab who doesn't medically transition, outside of it upsetting the very same sorts of people who will find any reason to dislike anyone different from themselves anyway.
>>
>>40923498
Of course the person who is not trans just mentally ill supports transmedicalism
>>
>>40923751
>>Taking HRT and socially transitioning would make you transgender
Just socially transitioning without HRT would make you a transvestite/crossdresser

no.

that undermines or otherwise misrepresents the meaning of transgender. see:
>>The word "transgender" was first popularised by Arnold Lowman, a heterosexual male who cross-dressed full time. He created the word to separate himself and others like him from people who wanted SRS. "Exclusively heterosexual... The transvestite values his male organs, enjoys using them and does not desire them removed." Transsexuals and transvestites alike were critical of him.

clearlt you're the one that's uninformed and spreading harmful misinformation because you don't understand the history.
>>
>>40923880
You and I are inherently less female for not trooning out young
Why did you cut your balls? Exactly you didn’t need to
Me too
I can’t pretend I’m a woman now just cause I take castration drugs to grow tits and keep my hairline
I was a normal male and still am nothing changed. Like for at least 22 years I was completely normal human male. Everything after that is a fever dream and hrt did nothing to change that
My late rogd means nothing, if I’m even dysphoric.
Oh well maybe you are female and I’m not and that’s it.
>>
>>40923880
no. you're just a liar. blanch called it. if you knew at 7 and didn't start transition until 29, then you're a trender trying to revise their own history to make their story more compelling. you're a trender. you didn't come out until after 2014.
>>
>>40923894
>Are you actively taking steps to medically transition? Congratulations, you're trans. If you aren't, then you're cis. Simple as.
what purpose does this serve? this is at best a masturbatory thing, like is someone who is repressing or can't get their HRT not trans? what happens if they lose access to it or miss a dose? you're so fuckin dumb
>>
>>40923881
transgender encompasses transvestites. transvestites don't experience gender dysphoria. hence they are technically correct. you don't need gender dysphoria to be transgender. you do need gender dysphoria to be a transsexual.

subtle differences that retards misrepresent.
>>
>>40923894
>Dysphoria or no dysphoria it doesn't matter
okay you are actually based lol
>>
I wish I was a trans woman
>>
>>40923937
>I was a normal male and still am nothing changed
this is the paychology of a transvestite. they identify as their sex assigned at birth regardless of transitional status, hence srs is unappealing if not outright detrimental to they psychee
>>
>>40923986
I’m gonna kill myself over it and this is fuel to the fire thanks
Yeah you might even say don’t but let’s be honest the world doesn’t red a transvestite
Cool to know I’m the incel of lgbt
>>
>>40923797
if a femboy identified as female, she'd be trans, yes. That's the exact point I was making.
>>
>>40924053
bruh you can live a normal life as a transvestite.
look at vlad.
he swaps out all the time.
its chill.
>>
>>40924083
Who is vlad? Wdym switch out?
No I’d rather not be alive at all if I’m just a caricature

>>40924083
>look at [streamer / person in the entertainment industry]

>>40924053
>>40924083
Transvestites are at the lowest rung for a reason. It's all the benefits without any of the downsides. They have it the easiest out of anyone, because they can take off their costume at any time (because to them, womanhood is nothing but a costume)
This is why they should be kicked out of trans spaces, but also why they have the easiest time having a "normal" life
I think they are subhuman scum, but they get to live comfortably amongst normies
>>
>>40924080
that's incredibly naive.

if we know everyone is capable of lying or otherwise acting in bad faith; how do we discern the legitimacy of their words? in this case, srs is the classical threshold. men don't cut their dicks off.
>>
>>40924103
yeah i agree with that.
definitely not the same, and not wired the same.

but also, theyre around and have their own niche in the market.
>>
>>40924113
if someone says
>I would like to be treated as a woman and referred to as a woman
why would I assume they're lying?
>>
>>40923915
>Thank you anon, you taught me something useful today. Scratch the part where the OP says transmedicalism and instead put down transbiologism, as it seems to align more with my views


just to clarify, i made up the term and no one uses it besides me. i do not even know if it's linguistically valid

some people use "transmedicalism" to mean both transbiologism and the medical gatekeeping thing and some use it to mean only transbiologism. i made up the term to disambiguate it
>>
>>40924156

>>40924103
Yeah I think I’ll kill myself due to that
I’m just a freak then
