I've noticed the difference between their Gender Identity Disorder and my Body Dysmorphic Disorder as well, except that one sees themselves as the other biological sex and people with Body Dysmorphia (like myself) see themselves as ugly monsters. I've never had a good relationship with food; in my preteen (10-12) and teens (13-19) there's time periods where I've didn't eat the best, either ate quite too much or very very little. I've noticed people who are anorexic or obese make excuses but I've been like both of them in the past. While I was only slightly underweight and slightly to moderately overweight and underfat and overfat in these time periods, and not very anorexic or obese at all, I noticed how they eat, and the reason why they keep on getting fat or thin is because they eat way too much or way too little. So the BS with "I do nothing and always gain weight" or "I eat all the time and can't gain weight" is a bunch of BS only the 1% people with medical conditions actually are legitimately cannot help looking anorexic or obese, but it's very rare. Well I for a period of time, ate very little, not even 700 calories of food, and exercises every day excessively. But the past year, in my 20's, I ate quite a lot above my recommended intake, which is 1,700 calories (I'm below average height (average 5'5" and mine is around 5'2"), and I ate like almost 3,000 calories of food in one day. I've had a lot of triggers to my body image before, like an obese girl calling me flat chested, even though my chest is 37" and I have a big difference between my band and bust circumference; I cannot even find my bra sizes in stores because of my small band size. I've also had triggers with obese and anorexic/manorexic people claiming they have muscle, tall manorexic people lying about how they can fit into Boy's/Unisex Youth t-shirts despite anyone above 5'5" cannot fit into the shirts length wise, because the 18-20 boy's height is 5'4" and nothing taller than that. I've also had triggers of obese people call me "skinny" despite being moderately overweight and quite overfat, people that are 95% obese BMI's and at least 40's body fat claiming they fit into a US size 6 despite looking like a US size 16, and my oldest sister is a size smaller than the size they claim to wear, whom is around fitness or acceptable body fat. I've also have triggers with my face a lot; my nose is kinda large, my face looks ugly, and I have too much acne at times. I feel like I have no muscle mass, and I need to fix, which fixing first needs to lose body fat appropriately and then gain muscle. A lot of continental Europeans commenting on how USA is 42% obese, despite the Nationwide reported by region (Southeast (and two Southwestern states) 33%, Midwest 33%, Northeast 29% and West (West Coast, Hawaii, Alaska, and Mountain West) 27% (Lower than the obesity rate for the United Kingdom, which is 28%)) contradicts their absurdly high rate. Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada has the same obesity percentage as Mississippi and West Virginia, which is 40%, yet every continental European on social media thinks we're all obese. I see myself as weak, no boobs, wimpy ,ugly monster, and the most obese person in the world, despite the fact I'm only moderately overweight, overfat, and not moderately obese (30 BMI for adults 20+ and 95% and up for babies, toddlers, children, and teens 0-19, and obese body fat IMO is for women 20-39 and girls 16-19 around 36% and boys 16-19 and men 20-39 31%, because that's where obesity starts on BMI levels.) I also have autism, and people always thought I wanted to be a boy in my teens because I like boy's and men's t-shirts then, but not so much now because I feel fat in unisex t-shirts, and much rather prefer being a larger size in a ladies t-shirt versus being a "smaller" size in a unisex t-shirt, which wouldn't fit my body shape correctly, since I have a more pear or spoon (circle part on the bottom, skinny part on the top) body shape, and boy's t-shirts are more like a rectangle, and men's t-shirts are more cone. I also like masculine things, like sports, cars, technology, more "masculine" music, and more "masculine" colours too. I feel like being comfortable with your body and still be GNC is a lot better than being convinced (or groomed if the person is 0-19) that you're a transsexual. Autistic and LGB people are more likely to be taken advantage of the TRA's too. Almost always the ftm transsexual is LGB or has Level 1 or Level 2 ASD or both. Almost always. Sorry if I went in circles; this is just my thoughts. Everyone does have moments of insecurities of our bodies at one point, but people with eating disorders, Body Dysmorphic Disorder, and Gender Identity Disorder has them more often than others, and it affects them quite often. People with GID either need to talk to a therapist about them wanting to be the opposite sex and IF and that's an IF they actually want to be the opposite sex, then any adult above 20 can make the choice on being a transitioned mtf or ftm.
