The “you’re not a tranny if you don’t desire SRS” and “you don’t need to have bottom dysphoria to be trans” stuff.

Personally I want SRS but all the affordable options aren’t good enough for me and it’s not a priority right now for me. I’d do it if the technique was good and I had the money for it tho but I am not going to Brossard to get botched lmfao

    if a person is dysphoric in every area except genitals i dont really think that should force them to live with the pain and not transition. just don’t be weird about it

      Yeahhh idk people are cruel and wanna feel more valid I think that’s what it is putting people down to feel better about how shit life is. But that’s just normal 4t4 stuff.

    I sort of dislike “you need x to be trans” because dysphoria is incredibly difficult to describe accurately, and repression is also incredibly powerful. I believe you need dysphoria to be trans, but a lot of people are dysphoric but assume they’re just depressed or something. so functionally I don’t like to say “you need dysphoria to be trans” and that extends to genital dysphoria. For me, I can tell I’m genital dysphoric but it’s so low on my priority list (face, body matter much more to me) that I barely think about it and as I am right now I don’t care about getting SRS or not. If I were to solve my other problems, I probably would be incredibly much more genital dysphoric

      Apparently it’s common for people to get more bottom dysphoric after they solve other points of dysphoria. I’m too early into HRT to say for certain tho

    i think every binary trans person should want the proper genitalia, but i understand if srs is inaccessible/too risky/too expensive/not close enough/etc for them as a procedure

    I think, to call themselves trans, a person needs to have at least one type of dysphoria, it doesn’t really matter which. They either have it or don’t. If god decided to have mercy and not grant you with bottom dysphoria — congrats.

      and as others have said, my bottom dysphoria has become much more noticeable as i’ve begun transitioning and imagining myself differently

    I think the real problem with this is it’s just gatekeeping hrt and other medical things like ffs for people who arent ‘trans’ enough

    “you dont need bottom dysphoria to be trans” is just objectively true

    I find the obsession with other people’s genitals in 4t4 just as weird as gockposters in mtf, almost worse in a way because they really genuinely seem to believe they’re better than the mtf crowd.
