Gender is bullshit anyway. Associating behaviours and fashion to it is an incorrect way to think. Instead - consider a more deconstructive approach, you are a unique human with unique experiences and relationship to weird societal hangups, it doesn't need to be more complex than that.
"gender" dysphoria is real but likely a neurological condition related to birth sex and brain development than anything else, certainly nothing to do with gender.
Edit: should clarify, I'm a binary trans woman, I consider myself as having sex dysphoria, i am not gender fluid.
Arent you basically admitting "genderfluid" folks and those with sex dysohoria (for lack of better term) are not the same thing? Because if thats the case, why do you need to claim our community and iconography?
Yeah. One is a people suffering from a horrific disorder in desperate need of effective medical care (transition) and the other is a fashion subculture. Muddying the waters by the latter has been politically disastrous for the former, but I'm not here to blame anyone because it all would've ended pretty badly thanks to the rightoids anyway.
Idk what you're on about regarding community and iconography, I was not aware gender fluid folks had any iconography specific to them nor do I remember claiming any.
For some reason I assumed you were one of the genderfluid types, and was confused why you were so eager to claim a difference. Im one of those with said horrific medical condition. When I referred to iconography and community; I meant the trans community, flag, ect.
Oh yeah sure. No I'm a binary trans woman, I consider myself as suffering from sex dysphoria. Yeah idk why they claim it but I suppose all subculture stems from something real, punk in the 80s was a lot more about politics and a mindset than fashion.
