I won't lie, it's very easy to believe you have dysphoria without actually having it
says the rep
>>43974395Am I wrong tho?
>>43974108It's just as easy to say "actually im just a depressed lazy loser" when in actuality you do have GD, because the gentrification of transsexuality muddied the definition so much people don't know what it is anymore
>>43974626>because the gentrification of transsexuality muddied the definition so much people don't know what it is anymoretrvke. I still have no clue what dysphoria is really supposed to be tbf
>>43974108I prefer to think of it less in these transmedicalist terms and more in terms of, simply, "Do you think you would be happier and more comfortable living as the opposite sex? Do you envy those people?"You can't describe gender dysphoria. It's a feeling you get and is not analogous to anything else you can experience.
>>43974905>"Do you think you would be happier and more comfortable living as the opposite sex? Do you envy those people?"I think it's very easy to say yes to this. Especially if one's depressed and such.>You can't describe gender dysphoria. It's a feeling you get and is not analogous to anything else you can experience.How would one know with absolute certainty that one does experience gender dysphoria?
>>43975168You can't. I denied I "really" had it for like 7 or 8 years after vocally identifying, "huh. This is probably what gender dysphoria feels like" for the first time. I am a demigirl and thus have a relatively weak feminine identity. It was hard to figure myself out, but I felt drawn to the idea of HRT, and to trans women, like a moth to a flame.You would know, I suppose, with high confidence, that you experience gender dysphoria if you transition to the opposite gender and you become happier. I am much happier, personally.
I discovered my dysphoria after experiencing intense euphoria from wearing a sports bra
>>43975922holy agp
>>43976604what of if, biiiitchI put that shit on and felt like I was levitating for a weekThen I was like,>i dont even need wear this technically, I dont have boobs>Wait.
>>43976621Tbhon, I actually envy your ability to feel happy about something so minor
>>43974108Longest I ever went without shaving was 3 days
>>43974108the real issue is that nobody actually knows what dysphoria is, even the people who have it
>>43977427Me too, but I haven't tried it yet. Maybe I'll just get used to it and learn to love it?? I probably haven't tried hard enough yet.
>>43977452Then what is dysphoria even?
many such cases
>>43977427After 6 years of HRT, laser and electro I only need to shave once a day :D
hi chuddy! here is a relevant hazbin hotel image for your post.
>>43978358nobody knows. i certainly dont.
>>43979817disordered sex differentiation in the brain leading to error signals when one's incongruent body/social role is observed
>>43979888How can I know if that's really what's happening?
>>43980830to you? pay attention to the feelings considering your sex, sex characteristics, and social role produces in you and note if the thought produces a sense of discomfort, incongruency, disgust, or general 'wrongness'. to others? i'm not sure how you expect someone to prove an internal experience to you. to me, asking someone to prove they're trans is like asking someone to prove they're autistic. it's a nonsense, thought-terminating demand.
>>43975922I had The Dream when I was 19 and this is kinda what made me realize that, yes, all of those feelings I was experiencing did in fact mean I was transgenderStill repped for 7 years after that. Eventually it was another trans girl whom I started flirting with and eventually I realized that, yes, I really am just a lesbian and I should affirm this and this is why doing hetero shit made me want to throw up and die
>>43974108not really, it's more common the other way, especially if you hang out in sneed spaces that talk about "titty skittles" and catgirls like i did in 2021 because i was on plebbit. these spaces give such a narrow, fetishised view of transness i thought i was just gay for yearsit's definitely easier for women to mistake wanting a relief from misogyny and the expectations of womanhood as dysphoria than it is for men, which is why you get all the cavetown listening, mlm fetishising hefabs
>>43974108I have a pussy.
>>43981725>which is why you get all the cavetown listening, mlm fetishising hefabsYou talk like this board isn't the malebrained trans shemab equivalent
>>43981763no it literally is lol, but i would rather take this over anywhere else because this place actually appreciates dysphoria as a thing and has trans men who aren't retarded
