    This doesn’t even make any sense. It should’ve said “transmission fault” to be remotely funny.

    Why would a trans woman take a pregnancy test? This joke is a non-starter (much like the engine in the picture)

        You are completely wrong about the way gender dysphoria works. It’s the opposite, we have euphoric feelings and comfort in the gender we move towards, Gender dysphoria is the opposite feelings we get when we repress that and are forced to express ourselves as the wrong gender.

        Gender dysphoria is a diagnosis and a mental health crisis, but it is alleviated by transition, meaning it largely goes away when we transition.

          There’s people out there that legitimately think it is a new thing. Like people just started to have this problem in the last 2 decades. Bullshit, ofc people in 1345 had this problem, but if they had expressed themselves they would’ve been locked away or killed…

          I don’t see how what I said is contrary to what you said. We both agree that when a person with gender dysphoria experiences great discomfort and distress when forced to present a gender other than their chosen gender, and when presenting as their chosen gender they feel happier. Much like how a cis person would feel great discomfort and distress if they were forced to present as a gender other than their birth gender, but generally those feelings are stronger in non-cis people.

            You are being scientifically incorrect. Calling something a trans person does a delusion disorder is derogatory and is not a medically recognized diagnosis in that case.

              You misunderstood what I said. I agree that a delusion disorder is a completely different thing from gender dysphoria, and as such they can occur separately or simultaneously.

              A person who is experiencing a delusion disorder should not be encouraged to transition without a medical professional ensuring the delusion disorder is not the cause of the dysphoria. That doesn’t mean that all people who are experiencing gender dysphoria are also experiencing a delusion disorder.

                But there would be no alternative delusion disorder to diagnose a trans person with, in that case it would be a symptom of gender dysphoria and thus something also alleviated by transition. There is no alternative diagnosis to being transgender called a delusion disorder.

                  Again, you’re not understanding me. A person can have ADHD and autism. They can present with similar symptoms but that doesn’t mean that having one means you have the other or that having one “overrides” the other.

                  Gender dysphoria and delusion disorder are two independent conditions which can present with similar symptoms, but that doesn’t mean gender dysphoria is a delusion. Belief that you are a biological female capable of childbirth when you were born a male is a delusion. A medical professional would need to determine if that delusion is part of a condition which could be temporary, or if it is part of a permanent condition.
