"I'm trans and I actually LIKE my body". Then guess what, you're not trans, you just want a trendy label to make you feel special.

Everyone is different and everyone wants different things. Not everyone is dysphoric with every part of their body, some people aren’t bodily dysphoric at all. Social dysphoria is worse than body dysphoria — being trans is very much about how you fit in socially as your gender.

HELL no. You clearly haven't experienced body dysphoria before, because if you had you wouldn't be saying this. Most were raised as their birth sex, actual transitioners likely fit their transitioned gender's roles LESS and still have years of shame about GNC behaviors instilled in them. They transition out of necessity, because it's the only way they can live with themselves, and it's HARD; they don't do it to fit stupid social expectations. Fitting social expectations is something most of them sacrifice to make their bodily existence even a tiny bit more tolerable.

that's the sick irony of dysphoria, since it was coined to explain why someone born male killed himself after being neutered and raised female

so now the spaghetti brains can threaten suicide without ever having to feel suicidal

Do they even threaten suicide anymore? They have the power to cancel anyone they want.

They threaten suicide on behalf of hypothetical "trans kids", who are inexorably compelled to self-harm by dysphoria, (but trans adults don't have to have dysphoria to be trans) and MUST begin medical transition IMMEDIATELY, (but trans adults who choose not to medically transition are valid) and anyone who points out the contradiction is LITERALLY KILLING those kids.
