No dysphoria = cis
Not a bait thread. Just reminding all of you idiots who say you're trans even though they are perfectly comfortable going as their birth gender and lack any dysphoria whatsoever that you're cis
Everyone = cis
Another word for "cis people" is "people"
This trans thing is just another tumblr fad

That's cute, Hate supporter
People have killed themselves because they couldn't take the dysphoria
You really don't know how trans people feel
Privileged cis white male

How exactly do you define dysphoria? Precisely how uncomfortable do you have to be with your birth gender to qualify as trans?

So, all those people that were trans long before tumblr and the internet are make believe?
I don't think there are many pretenders on /lgbt/

Enough to feel like you're crossdressing in the correct clothing of your sex.

dysphoria=mental illness
taking hormones and inverting your penis is not proper medical treatment
What if you feel internal dysphoria but don't care what other people think of you? Like, I'm part-time trans on HRT and everything, but it doesn't bother me that I have to present as my birth gender to 99% of the people I interact with, and I don't know if I ever want to go full time.
Most people think I'm a guy, and that doesn't bother me. They're just wrong.

The Confederacy of Independent Systems, also known as the Confederacy, the CIS, the Separatist Confederacy, the Separatist Alliance, the Separatist State, the New Order, the pro-secessionists; or colloquially as the Separatists, Seps, or Sepies; was the government and separatist movement led by Darth Sidious and his apprentice Count Dooku. Formed by various planetary and sectorial governments, as well as some mega-corporations, that declared intentions to leave the Galactic Republic, refusing to comply with its excessive taxation and corruption in the Senate during the Separatist Crisis.
Eventually, tensions between it and the Republic developed into war after Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Padmé Amidala were sentenced to execution on Geonosis and a group of Jedi led by Mace Windu attempted to rescue them. After the Republic revealed its clone army on Geonosis, the Separatists were forced to retreat, beginning a great war that would last for three years and tear the galaxy apart.
The CIS put fear in the hearts of countless citizens of the Republic, largely due to General Grievous, Supreme Commander of the Droid Armies. The Confederacy won many battles in the ensuing war but was dissolved when the Separatist Council leaders were killed on Mustafar, allowing Palpatine to reform the Republic into the Galactic Empire.

I have social dysphoria because women have more fun and I want that tbqh

Give me specific examples of white male privilege please

How much dysphoria is required to be transgender?
>>5866713
so glad I found out that crossdressing was also a straight thing in high school. I mean, I was in denial then, but at least I never doubted my gender status (even if I've never been a manly man). Not saying trans is bad, obviously, just recognizing how much easier it is being cis and confident about it.

I'm not >>5866750, and I can say that I agree with their point, up to the "privilege" thing.
What they probably should've told you as that transgender people have existed long before even the internet, nevermind tumblr.
Also, though I don't think men are more "privileged", there are some clear and distinct differences in how men and women are treated that trans people (assuming they pass anyway) are subjected to.
Men command more respect, by nature. This helps a lot in leadership positions, and is probably why there are more men in leadership position then there are women. (Though I am not saying that men are better or worse then women in those positions).
The downside to this is that men are pitied far less. If you are seen as a man, and you are having some sort of issue in the public (maybe you lost something, or are emotionally distraught for some reason) almost nobody will stop to help you.
Women, on the other hand, can gain more pity and envy, but less overall respect. If a woman were having some sort of issue in public, there is the chance that some stranger will come to help her.
>TL,DR
Though I wouldn't say men are "privileged", to say that they are treated the same as women is complete idiocy.
dysphoria in itself is not a trans disease.
gender dysphoria is.

>taking hormones and inverting your penis is not proper medical treatment
Do you have any better suggestions?
>>5867199
I'd just say you're a gender dysphoric male rather than trans woman. The underlying medical condition is the same though.

>have dysphoria, but it's kind of bearable, not constant and not that harsh compared to what my trans friend usually describes
>go by my birth gender because I don't want to upset my family and don't mind being called "she" half the time
>still become unreasonable happy when people address me as "sir" and wish my body wasn't feminine, not to mention the constant need to have a dick when I've never had one
Should I see a gender specialist or just presume I'm cis and wait 'till dysphoria disappears on its own?
