It’s the fundamental problem with the entire conception of transgenderism. There’s no rational way to explain feeling any gender other than the sex you were born.

It’s an intractable problem, you cannot know how other minds perceive the world, so it’s impossible to feel like a sex that you aren’t.

Of course, the way to solve the problem is to accept that it is either a delusional mental illness or a sexual fetish.

I suspect that, since most NBs seem to be young, that NBism is just a fad/attention seeking behaviour that will disappear when the next thing comes along.

I hope it does. I preferred when kids were angsty emos and goths in order to piss off their parents. At the very least they only cut themselves on a surface level.

Yeah

Also, emos at least didn't force their beliefs on anyone and usually didn't even interact with people outside their own community.
