Do you think there are differences between them and people who identify as the opposite sex or not?

I can understand what dysphoria IS. I can understand what transition is. When that's the meaning of transgenderism and we're not denying sex, we can find common ground. Whereas with non-binaryness, over a decade into this and I will never understand what it is. Because it means nothing.

It annoys me on a deep level to be asked to perform empathy for a group of people whose alleged axis of oppression cannot even be defined. I don't care about someone's supposed mystical experience of transcending their sexed body. I am not interested in any spiritual practice that denies the body. That's the Christian shit I grew up with. I DO NOT CARE.

If you have dysphoria and/or are persecuted for being gender nonconforming, I do care. But your inner androgynous or girly boyish shifting states of awareness: fuck off with it forever. Stop thinking it makes you interesting and expecting strangers to accommodate your inarticulable inner life.

Guess I needed to get that off my chest.
