Gender identity disorder self test

I’m a lesbian, feminist, have no innate sense of gender and no discomfort with my sexed body, but what do ya know, I’m medium to high risk of gender identity disorder. I should seek the advice of a licensed professional.
Well, this is news to me, but I’m not a 13 year old just entering puberty and finding my way in a horribly sexualised, gender stereotyped world.
I shudder to think what I’d have to be like for them to think I wasn’t at risk.
Recruitment much?

I just looked at an online one. I'm a straight woman and probably "conform" to quite a few gender stereotypes. Why TF did I get this message then...?!
Your answers suggest a Strong indication that you are experiencing symptoms common among people diagnosed with gender dysphoria. However, this quiz is no substitute for a proper diagnosis from a health care professional and we would encourage you to schedule an appointment with your doctor or other mental health professional now.

Unbelievable.

medium to high risk, which is quite frankly balls. I may be autistic. might be trotting off to the GP for that. the quiz is sexist as it assumes there are certain rolkes for each sex which is not true. flawed, and biased i think.

That site is 'for entertainment purposes only'.
I suspect they tell most people they need a therapist.

Wow. I'm a high priority apparently!
I did struggle with being a girl as a child/teen, but I've grown up to realise that was mostly internalised misogyny. I hated the role of womanhood, not being a woman itself.
I'm pretty sure I would be viewed as having gender dysphoria now, but it would have been a terrible mistake.
