I don’t really care if transitioning cured their dysphoria or not. I just don’t want men in women’s hard-won spaces. If they weren’t trying to colonise womanhood I wouldn’t care what adults do, even if I think it’s a stupid solution to a largely manufactured problem. Just stop pretending it makes you a woman.

If I had a kid and the gender cult got him or her I’d be murderously pissed. I stand with other parents under the same threat. But most of all I agree: just stay out of women’s locker rooms, women’s sports teams, and women’s scholarships.

Scratch the surface of "queer joy," and it all starts to fall apart. Many of these people are in unstable relationships, estranged from their families, financially insecure, and in chronic pain. They'll tell you themselves that offhand comments from strangers have the power to send them into a tailspin. Suicidal ideation is common. Romantic rejection is frequent.

Of course, in their worldview, the problem is everyone else's "transphobia." It's unthinkable to question the efficacy of transition as a treatment for gender dysphoria.

PS- narcissists believe that their problems are worse than anyone else's. So of course they think there is nothing worse than gender dysphoria. Of course they think anyone else's problems would be preferable to what they are suffering.

That's because they can't really empathize or sympathize, and envision what someone else is going through.
