This isn't a post about anything new. I'm just trying to explain this stuff with my own words.

Binary trans people who experience gender dysphoria have a serious medical condition. The treatment for the condition is medical and social transition. I happen to have been diagnosed with Gender Identity Disorder, by my primary doctor, and after seeing a therapist, I began HRT and a social transition.

Anyone who doesn't experience dysphoria but decides to transition, is transitioning for completely different reasons than someone who does so as a form of treatment for a medical condition.

My problem with nonbinary people and people like Philosophy Hon is how they declare themselves to be trans just like me. I have nothing wrong with nonbinary people or people dressing as the opposite gender, without having gender dysphoria. They are NOT TRANS though. My medical condition should not be thrown under the bus.

It's like if people who didn't medically need to be in wheelchairs decided to start calling themselves disabled and rolling around in wheel chairs. The disabled folks wouldn't appreciate having their condition called the same as something people choose to do with zero medical necessity.

Again, I think Nonbinary people and Crossdressers are 100% valid. BUT when they call themselves trans, they are appropriating a word used to refer to a different group of people who are treating a medical condition. I just want my medical condition taken seriously. Why is that so controversial?
