Because we aligned with the queer it made people think that being trans is an aesthetic choice, like most queer identities (not saying there are no trudykes or trufags but most queers are just quirky straight people) whereas it’s generally understood that disabilities are stuff that you’re either born with or happens to you and there’s no choice involved
Isn’t homosexuality a birth condition as well? I can also make the same argument that they are ‘‘disabled’’
They don’t need medical attention to solve it, it’s just a thing, like being left handed
