Really interesting blog about the thought process of dysphoria and how to think yourself out of it:

Excellent article.

“I believe it is a misconception that people who ID as trans think male and female are the same and cannot distinguish between them. On the contrary, I’d suggest that dysphorics perceive the differences between the sexes to be even greater than they actually are.”

I’m often struck that male to female transitioners don’t seem to have any real idea about actual women. There seems to be an entire, fictionalised narrative about what it is to be a woman running in their heads, which doesn’t take into account the real lives and individuality of women.

“Ultimately, sex is a physical trait like any other: short, tall, male, female. A product of nature- impartial, unfeeling, merciless nature. The result of many thousands of generations of humans and whatever creatures came before us, tracing all the way back to your most primordial ancestor.”
