I read your Trouble with Trans on Medium. Not a lot there I haven't already read here; obviously the use of one term for such dissimilar people is part of that compulsive "inclusive" shit, the rationale for which has never been explained to me. Give me a richly-colored mosaic over brown mud any day.

But one thing leapt out at me: I did not realize that gender dysphoria had been declared as "optional" to qualitfy as "trans"; this is outrageous to the point of kicking holes in walls. This is identity theft. I've said for a long time now that the goal of "trans" activists is to increase their audience and they do so with wanton irresponsibility, up to and including encouraging children to undergo treatments that will forever affect their lives. And with McGender and Surgery King franchises springing up all over, this is big business.

I didn't know this "optional dysphoria" was out in the open. That is absolutely outrageous.

'Gender incongruence' is the new term, which completes the notion that a person is whatever they say they are.No dysphoria required anymore, just a desire to appropriate marginalization.

Validation by marginalization. Some people like to think they're important enough to be hated, when in real life the people they believe are hating them are people who don't care if they live or die.
