We know that being short is a real phenomenon. I can't get inside someone's head with a tape measure, though. What evidence for "real gender dysphoria" is there, beyond people's comments to psychologists?

The suicide rate. The rate at which people go in for gender surgery. It shows it has a real effect on people. I mean by what metric would you call it real or fake if not by the effect it has on the people with it? If you say height has a severe effect on men cos of ppl getting surgical interventions, or roping or depression, then all those apply to people with Gender dysphoria too.
