I didn't watch all of this, but the several minutes I did see showed this person - Ty - reading tweets of other TIPs (trans-identified persons) telling the various things that prompt their "dysphoria," and responding to this info by making light of these "triggers," or openly laughing at them for being "weird."

Seems odd and more than a little callous and irresponsible given that the trans population and their "allies" constantly claim that "dysphoria" is so excruciatingly painful and hard to bear that anything that sets it off, no matter how teensy-tiny and trivial, most likely will lead trans-identified people to suicide in droves. Also, I thought the Genderologists are pretty touchy when it comes to the word "weird" - don't they believe that using "weird" in reference to anything trans people say or do is a mortal sin, even a capital crime?

If a person who isn't trans posted a video like this, she or he would be called a cruel bigot, transphobe, TERF, Nazi, Trumper and so on. And YT would quickly remove the video on grounds that it's "hate" and harassment. As happened recently with Vanessa Vokey's video on that TIM with a big YT following who goes by the name Lux.

Yeah. Laughing at "triggers" is not cool.

someone said in the comments "my weirdest dysphoria trigger is being hit on by men."

Hmm, I wonder might be causing the dysphoria..

I avoid youtube videos since they censor GC content whenever the TRAs mobilize against it, and so much other content when ever it undermines the manufacture of consent. But it seems such a shame that there is no help for these people with dysphoria that are then triggered by even the most casual realities. One would think the mental health professions would help them accept reality instead of telling the rest of us this is normal. There seem to be a lot of new normals stepping up to take the place of the normal normal.
