Being born in the "wrong" body is a ridiculous argument. It assumes a) there's a "right" body and b) that someone made a decision to switch or "assign" you into the wrong body. The Trans Community, on the one hand, leans on science and biology to define gender dysphoria/dysmorphia as a disorder, but not to treat it as such. Instead, the treatment is to lean into the disorder and cater to the symptoms. On the other hand, it ignores biological sex's huge contribution to gender, which they say is a construct that should be ignored for how you feel about your gender. It's utter nonsense and what we really need is a cure for the disorder. I think there's a test for whether you have the disorder and some of the feedback from the Trans Community as that, once again, we should ignore the science for how the person feels. So you can have it both ways; it's not a choice, it's a disorder, but even if you don't have that disorder, it's okay because then you can still choose to be trans. Fuck that shit. Cure the disorder and see how many trans people actually take that cure.
