Would anyone truly feel dysphoric or even suicidal if they woke up as the opposite sex/gender?

No. No I'm pretty sure if I woke up in Michael Nando's body I would be fine. I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Afghani and Iranian girls who would be happy to wake up as boys.

I also can't reconcile a reality where, if I suddenly sprouted a kickstand, I should be allowed to just strip off in the women's changerooms.

Protip from a life-long male: you gotta work up to that level of exposure, you can't just go all in (or out, rather) your very first day. My advice is to start with those weird European swim briefs, the ones that hairy, rich Greek dudes wear that look like painted-on rubber. If you can handle that without wanting to curl up and die of embarassment, you're fine the changerooms!

But Stavros just wants to feel seen! Don’t Greek-shame Stavros!
