I’m uninterested in passing, so don’t bring up what I could change about my presentation to pass more easily — It’s just not on my radar. Just because I’m not changing my body with hormones or surgery doesn’t mean I’m not transitioning. The process of coming out, changing presentation, negotiating pronoun use, changing names, and all kinds of other stuff can be part of a non-medical transition and it’s important to be recognized as a transition too.

That's not a transition, it's all sexist gender roles bullshit. You're allowed to be a tomboy or femboy. What you want is to change your role in society, not whether you're actually male or female. If you don't care about passing, fine. But the fact that you think that would be the only reason to alter your body, and not because, you know, it feels so uncomfortable that it makes you want to kill yourself 24/7, proves that you don't understand transitioning and why a few people need it.

Not to mention even if it's supposedly that bad, it's still not a real thing. It's just depression + narcissism clinging to a fantasy.
