All so called "transgenders" would prefer if they were born in a different sex. Transgenderism CANNOT NOT be a condition. Being proud of being transgender is like being proud of being disabled.
Being gay has a lot of issues, but at least gay people can genuinely say they are glad that they are gay. Being proud of being transgender is like saying you are proud you were born in the wrong body. It doesn't make any sense.
If transgenders didn't look at their property as their identity, there would be no political problems with this issue.
Transsexual people hate having been born with dender dysphoria. They're not proud to have it. They hate being trans.
Trangenderism is a different thing. It's not related to gender dysphoria. Transgenders can be trans as a political manifesto, as a way to express gender, because of a fetish, or anything else. Unlike transsexuals, transgenders rarely prefer to have been born in the opposite sex, and they're often proud to be trans.
Transphobes love to use derogatory terms and then they complain that people get mad at them.
Ask a woman who had breast reduction because they were too big and hurt their back whether their breasts were a birth defect. I wonder how she will react.
There's no such thing as a transphobe. Only people who are against needless unnatural problematic sexual identities. If someone were to invent a pill that would cure gender dysphoria (the feeling of being in the wrong body), trans activist would start complaining about "trans erasure" even tough it would be a solution to all the problems.
And Ironically enough, trans people are currently "erasing" lesbians and gays.
Being proud of being transgender is like being proud of being disabled.
Being proud of being transgender is like saying you are proud you were born in the wrong body. It doesn't make any sense.
If someone is disabled but they are doing what needs to be done to improve their lives they should be proud of that. If you can only look at being transgender as a disability they think of it as they are trying to get around that "disability".
As far as the pride from "being in the wrong body", I would say the pride does not come being born in the wrong body, the pride would come from their being able to look in the mirror and see someone who resembles the person they feel they are and from their having the wherewithal to go thru all of the steps that are needed to get to and go through the surgeries.
Disabled people may be proud of doing what they can to overcome their disability, but they aren't proud of their disability. They don't celebrate it and encourage other people to become it like trans advocates are doing to young girls.
It is happening. Trans advocates want there to be more trans people. They feel like the more trans people there are the more successful their movement will be. It's no different than disabled people encouraging others to jump in shallow pools.
Nobody is "born in the wrong body". There are mentally ill people who believe they were born in the wrong body, and there are fools who succumb to mass hysteria and peer pressure and play the role of someone born in the wrong body to get attention and woke points.
