“You only need a gender incongruence to be trans”

Gender incongruence diagnosis criteria: Marked and persistent incongruence between an individual's experienced gender and their assigned sex.

Gender dysphoria diagnosis criteria: a marked incongruence between a person's experienced or expressed gender and their assigned sex

genuinely what the fuck argument is this. If you have a gender incongruence it’s caused by gender dysphoria and vice versa. I see so many trans identifying people online saying they have no dysphoria but do have incongruence and that’s why they’re heckin valid, but just by them saying that i know it’s total bullshit. The only way you can even know you were born with a misaligned brain is if there is discomfort, is if there’s something noticeably wrong, that’s the dysphoria lol.

The euphoria argument is even more braindead because euphoria is not even a medically recognized term, and euphoria also doesn’t exist by itself, it’s the feeling you get when dysphoria is alleviated.
