The focus on "gender" (abstract, clothes/language based, purely societal) rather than sex has been possibly the most catastrophic thing to ever befall the trans community. "Trans people change their gender not their sex" is a statement only uttered by the lobotomized.
>>43160060People who use the term transgender believe that gender is immutable, and that they're changing their sex
neither sex nor gender can ever be changed by anyone ever
>>43160060stop calling it gender dysphoria, call it sex dysphoria. the treatment is changing as much of your sex as you can/want.
>>43160060>gender" (abstractIt's a part of your brain. Gender identity. It's at the part dealing with self perception and body ownership. It's not abstract. You can find it on a scan.
>>43160129The treatment is just emulating the opposite gender via medical intervention. But trans people also want everyone else to treat them accordingly. Thats why it fails.
>>43160060You can change your sex characteristics, but not your sexYes, sex is a sliding scale, and 90-99% of us are at the furthest end of either side.You want to assimilate, but refuse to acknowledge the social side, as if the trans people of yesterday woke up with hormones and surgeries without any attempt to blend with the opposite sex beforehand.
>>43160120I haven't observed this in my experience>>43160132Fair enough I should've made a distinction between gender and gender roles>>43160163Going from 100% of one end to 99% of the other end is still changing sexes. Sex isn't solely determined by your chromosomes. I noticed people tend to think trans people transition for the social aspect and the medical aspect is just an addition/support when really it was the opposite for me. I'm not saying social transition doesn't matter but treating transness as a whole as a societal thing means surgeries get considered cosmetic rather than medically necessary. fucking up insurance
>>43160129you cannot change your bone structure enough to look more female than male>>43160132nobody diagnoses trans people based on brain scans
>>43160357nobody diagnoses autism with brain scans, but it's still a real part of your brain
>>43160357from the outside, and hormonally, I am more female than male at this stage. im societally and functionally an infertile female
>>43160368autism is a way to pathologize socially unwanted peoplesure, there are people who have severe communication deficits and truly need help to do daily activities but that can be covered under development disorderscalling it "autism" just ends up as a mean name for people you don't like who you want to make out to be evil and not in control of their own minds, especially as it is used to describe people fully able to talk and converse with others>>43160389words mean absolutely nothing
>>43160409god i tire of militant reppers lmao
>>43160409you're an idiot
>>43160409Saying that biological males can’t be women is transphobic. You have to play pretend or they’ll kill themselves
>>43160458then they should kill themselvesstop trying to leverage suicide as a weapon for social control
>>43160409>>43160458>>43160470stop replying to yourself gincel
>>43160409The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. You can get more out of a conversation with a cat or dog than an autistic "person".
>>43160263No, you aren't 99% the opposite sex. Visually sure. But whatever, semantics.People do not transition for the social aspect. The exceptions do it out of defiance, they do not seek to live as the opposite sex, ie theyfabs and other politically motivated so and so's.It's not entirely societal. It's not exclusively sexual. It's not cosmetic. It's a lived reality people need, just like how some people Need be get a divorce, Need friends to feel fulfilled.People who feel that they need to live as the opposite sex should be allowed to do so. Insurance should cover treatment in the face of a gender dysphoria diagnosis. Beyond that, I hope HRT becomes more accessible, and health care in general is pretty shit across the world. That's all I have to say. Most people are not worth this much thought.
>>43160060Based and correct. Ultimately it’s malebrained and only can imitate what has already been.Real femininity is highly fluid and evolving every moment. It’s why some cis AND tranners can wear full “femme” outfits and look fake as hell and others can wear something entirely different/new and look beautifully high femme. It’s a connection to divinity and way of life, not a set of variables or objects.
>>43160060desu my sister was confused by this one time when i told her i would still be unhappy if everyone was genderless and i ended up just explaining that i have dysphoria about my sexually dimorphic characteristics and she got it after that mostly so that's probably what the criteria should bei still think that estrogen should be otc anyway and people should be able to wear whatever they want thoughpesonally i just wish i could work out and wear clothes without sleeves without looking male, i just want to do whatever as a female, idc
