The reaction of normies doesn't qualify your gender. There is a difference between expressing yourself by borrowing social characteristics, and trying to "pass" on the basis of social tolerance. For participating in this culture of "passing" by destroying yourselves for this glorious gender-affirming property of the normie's vision, you are doing those who deny or exploit your existence a great favor. You enforce yet another "ideal" form of a gender through dictating its supposed deficits while speaking so much of our rejection inciting our death. Both passoid-culture troons and looksmaxxing incels are kind of the same, for that matter. They reduce their deep problem of suicide, or genocide dare I say, by only factoring in their opposing presence around phobic normies while sweeping their own fatal lack of personal harmony under the rug. There is not enough guilt and shame for this putrid negation taking place across LGBT culture.

ok literally what ever i want to be pretty and feminine and feel good about myself and my body and not be dysphoric i literally can not function and lose all of my personhood and sense of self if i don’t spend 5 hours on my appearance every day. i tried not participating in passing culture and what ever from the ages of like 16.5-18 which was basically like being nonbinary which i am not. and i ended up so fucking annoying and delusional and i was just coping instead of addressing my actual issue of not being pretty or passable enough. it ruined my personality and everyone hated me cause i was a coping retard. my body’s the main thing i care about at least for now until im in a place where i can worry abt other things. the emotional safety people find in giving up caring about passing is the same thing as what obese ppl find in eating 5 burgers every day. the reality is if ur a dysphoric tranny u don’t get the ability to not do all that. anything else is woke detransition spiritual suicide israelgpt therapist psyop cope. my appearance is a responsibility and need like drinking water is and the man thing in my overall wellbeing. “gender” is retarded and only a thing that can be worried about only once my body is where it needs to be if u only care about ur “gender being valid” ur gonna end up a vicarious agp retard

Trvke that they aren't ready for. Stop caring about passing. Look like what you want to look like. The obvious rebuttal is that "what I want to look like someone who passes though" but your desire has been actively shaped by the need to pass and society's standards of what female is. Now of course how some people will want to look will naturally fall into this range of passing, but passing itself shouldn't be your actual goal as you will inevitably be chasing a bullshit standard set by society on some level. For example 99% of you bitches that are height dysphoric only feel that way cause it's socially induced. If you lived in a society where being tall as a woman is expected as a beauty standard you wouldn't care. Meanwhile there's other traits you wouldn't be ok with regardless of society. The point is to deconstruct these socially induced dysphorias and stop being a conformist npc.

I was disagreeing with you until I got to this point. The whole obsession with things like height and clothing and social roles isn't gender dysphoria, these people unironically care more about being able to LARP as a trad Chad/Stacy than about changing their actual sexual characteristics.
>>
>>42715438
Eh, I would say calling it a social dysphoria is accurate for most conversations. I think basically all terminology related to trans stuff is wrong in some ways and we need new terms to better describe things. But I just use existing terms for normal convo.

>>42715456
But yeah this isn't gender dysphoria. Forget that.

You're a fucking retarded theyfab. People with actual dysphoria need it, we don't care how heccin valid you think we are, we are still suffering and we need to just be perceived as our real gender.

You will never understand it because you think being trans is a quirky little label you can use to defy the system with your colored hair and your foid tits and your he/xe/they pronouns pin. Of course you have the time to think about all this bullshit, because this doesn't mean anything to you. But some of us suffer and all we need is to be perceived as standard, normal people, and you are making it even worse for us, when you will probably detransition when you grow up and get bored of being a heccin valid emo demi-poondood.

I hold this opinion and tried to kill myself on two occasions because of dysphoria. If anything it would be somehow who isn't dysphoric that would disagree. They'd be like "well if you don't care about the social idea of being a woman why are you trans?" (average cissoid thinks trans means high level crossdresser) BECAUSE OF FLESH MY SICKLY ROTTING TESTOSTERONE POISONED FLESH YOU ASSHOLE I DON'T CARE ABOUT NONE OF YOUR FOID SHIT AND PASSING I JUST WANT TO RIP THIS STUPID FLESH OFF UNTIL IT'S SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T BRING ME PAIN I WANT TO BE ME NOT WHATEVER YOU WANT ME TO BE FUCK YOU
>>
>>42715438
being tall is universally a positive thing when it comes to beauty. being 6'4" as a trans woman means that when people evaluate you, your height alone makes it more likely that you are a trans woman than a cis woman. no one alive treats trans women like they are actual women, so this induces gender dysphoria if they see you as one. this also affects how you see yourself. social standards will always do this. trannies get dysphoric over not shaving, a social concept. this isn't about beauty, it's about adhering to what the average woman/man looks like and feeling like shit when you can't over mostly immutable features.
>>
>>42714446
i think there's not enough guilt and shame for the fact that we've come back around to straight up saying "trans people should resist the urge to transition" but with a woke veneer
>>
>>42715719
"passing" means looking like a cis man or cis woman too by the way. actually telling trannies to not be upset over looking like their birth sex. kind of insane, and the word slop that sacrifices legibility for emphasis makes it worse.
>>
>>42715757
You can be dysphoric over immutable traits. It's just many people feel bad over certain things only for socially constructed reasons, which they could free themselves of. It's dumb to hold yourself to this things needlessly when there's real dysphoria to get upset over.

>It's just many people feel bad over certain things only for socially constructed reasons, which they could free themselves of. It's dumb to hold yourself to this things needlessly when there's real dysphoria to get upset over.

A social construct is still a thing that exists and effects your life. Methinks that being dysphoric over having traits that are incongruent with being socially percieved as your desired gender/sex is completely fine actually.
>>
>>42715407
>"your desire has been actively shaped by the need to pass and society's standards of what female is....If you lived in a society where being tall as a woman is expected as a beauty standard you wouldn't care"
No fucking shit? "If you lived in a society where this trait was considered feminine than you would not be dysphoric over having a feminine trait" But we don't live in that society.
I assume you are GNC, or advocate for people being GNC, on the basis of not wanting to be a "conformist npc [sic]". Do you accept than in an arbitrary frame of reference (such as the one you posed) that you could be a conformist, or do you think, for whatever reason, you would always be GNC?

It's gay and cis people are equally faggots for doing it.
>>
>>42715999
I think people should strive for what they want for themselves alone and not anyone elses standards. And if it happens to fully align with gender norms by chance then so be it. In a society where what I am isn't GNC I'd still be what I am and not deviate.
>>42716013
Woman being tall has historically been a desirable trait across various cultures. For most I think they only want to cause of society, but if someone breaks down their conceptions of gender and society's standards and still wants to be short then so be it. They at least now know they're doing it for truer reasons than before.

Exactly, you literally shouldn't. That's precisely my point. All that expression takes at minimum is for a message to be sufficiently adhered. Whether that message is adhered by those who follow the social convention and "fall for" your efforts to achieve it, or adhered by those who respect your identity regardless of this convention is entirely up to you. It's only wrong when you dictate others to seize specific traits against their will in order to mold their identity to any "ideal" form. It's wrong when you force people to choose a specific method against their own means of expression, because you'd be reproducing the same fucking consequences as phobic normies telling trans people their traits aren't good enough or will never be good enough.
It's better to seek people who respect your identity for what it is. Once again, said in a different way: The first thing is about expressing the traits you want, whether it resonates with the common conception or not, whether these traits are even "borrowed" from convention in the first place or not. The second thing is trying to "pass" for people who would reject whatever other trait that "doesn't pass" as anything. My point is the consequences of the latter aren't simply limited to transphobes. Would you want to be as much of a woman as possible to an orthodox Christian, or is it better to say "go fuck yourself" and find people who see you for you? Why should that be limited only to them?

I'm not whoever you replied to. There's still a problem with the language of "nonconformity", because what is this "not conforming" against? It's only describing whatever is "conformist" in a negative sense against a traditional/conventional order, I feel like it still reinforces the other two conceptions in a way.
We could draw an identical concept for the conditions of which these identities are alike, and then reduce their differences down to their ideal form, situating any element of these identities as a "particular" of their general form. A gender "in particular" according to the traditional order is generally determined by chromosomes; different than the social conception. A gender "in particular" according to the social order is generally determined by social convention; different than the traditional conception.
The social conception at least enables more freedom of movement; because the particular is enabled to imply the general much more fluently than a solid particular element; it doesn't let them be wholly determined by singular traits like chromosomes and instead depends on the social convention. The problem is we are still behaving as if the general implies the particular, as if there are "universal" traits of which a gender is composed of, as if we are to "pass" into it. Both of these have the same septic problems, it catastrophically removes identities that are different to their supposed generality, which makes no sense if we are already in a state of becoming ourselves inasmuch as the conventional order. We could continue debating with this sclerotic and meddlesome discourse of what satisfies the "general" conception of gender, it'll always be the same juggling act that forces people to behave in a particular manner against their wills of which "don't conform".

Get off here and go live your amazing life without real dysphoria, bitch
>>
>>42721461
>You have the whole world to be your safe space
The opposite, actually. That's certainly evident from your violent projection, for one. So much of the shit you just complained about isn't even my stated opinion or experience, so clearly you're just traversing each and every aspect of your shitty social life in order to somehow justify what being an MtF is by having "real dysphoria". It's already justified alone, your identity does not need to rely on a specific social integration (but once again, its your choice who you associate with!). You complain about afab social greed being excessively satisfied by their wealth of everyone, of transphobes (the ones who see you as "malebrained rapegender"), while you're consumed by your impotent greed for their hateful currency. That totally makes sense for your well being and makes it worth the endless struggle, right? Wouldn't you be unknowingly reinforcing this shitty status quo you're complaining about, according to those same pundits and scribes of the social order you're complaining about, if you reach your goal of meeting their ends for your own? Instead, why not seek people who recognize you for your own; and live in harmony with them if this shitty social climate, all in all, won't be a good enough "safe space" for either of us? We are both bitching about the same thing here.
>>
>>42722271
>Quite the opposite actually
Stfu. The world sees you as a slightly weird cis girl, it may hurt you because you want to be a cool woke xenogender but you don't have enough dysphoria to do something about it. Instead, at least for MtFs, the world sees us as degenerate perverted rapist men and is constantly plotting against us, taking our rights away, humiliating us in every way possible.

Do we both experience discrimination? Of course. But you trying to pretend we are the same and questioning us for "wanting to adhere to stereotypes" when we just want to alleviate our suffering is painfully retarded and of course you're gonna get insults
>>
>>42722518
I have enough dysphoria to care about *other* people's dysphoria instead of focusing on my social security. I care about relieving the presence of people's dysphoria; and I care about the results of how people alleviate their suffering that their dysphoria posits, which already affects the social space that affects each of us, down to each of our own dissatisfaction. Thinking that your suffering can be alleviated without any harms way to yourself or other people in this matter is retarded and borderline hedonistic. Alleviating your suffering at the expense of strengthening your ideal gender by telling people to change their identity for how the rest of the world sees them is so dissonantly selfish and self-annihilating. I'd rather not configure myself for people who want me dead and think its funny, literally nobody should.
>But you trying to pretend we are the same
I said we complained about similar things, you're just too braindead to figure out what produces your complaints.
>questioning us for "wanting to adhere to stereotypes"
Even though I said it's fine to use traits that adhere to social convention. >>42716126

It infuriates me that this person, who clearly doesn't experience the same things as a trans person with dysphoria, tries to tell us how we should express our pain in a woke way, with this "toxic transgenders :((" bullshit. Since he has no idea what it's like to be one of us, he believes that our misery stems solely from bad intentions and that with the power of xexirlove and poonfriendship we can change and be perfect little pure moral angels, when in reality it stems from the fact that our life is a genuine hell due to a condition we did not choose and that no one cares to hear about, not even our own community since this theyfab discourse sounds more pretty and wholesome.

"Changing" your pronouns isnt an alternative for therapy around trauma or frustration wtih gender norms/expectations.
>>
>>42723400
You don't understand it's totally your responsibility as a trans woman to let people deconstruct gender roles. You do this by respecting how other people transition. Women are able to have body hair so it's optional for them to get electrolysis. Women are able to have flat chests so it's optional for them to start hrt. Women can have deep voices so it's optional for them to voice train. It's incredibly important for all of us as women that we have the right to express our gender however we like! Trans women can transition trans women can transition trans women can transition!!
>>
>>42723448
People care about dysphorics as much as they care about any other obsessive group, anon.
>>
>>42723630
Actually, changing pronouns is a type of therapy developed to lower the suicide rate in gender obsessives, with moderate results.
