Maybe it does but where does dysphoria come from? Transition is not like birth control, it’s only purpose is to make the body conform to a societal standard. Much like when I had an eating disorder & believed my body ‘should’ look a certain way. https://t.co/4uHbLXZg57 

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'd have medically transitioned even if I lived alone on a desert island. I lived for about 5 years as a gender nonconforming woman and the reason I did was because men's clothing made my body look different.

I remember in the period right before I realized I was trans there was a ton of publicity for companies that made men's (style) clothing for female bodies. It made me feel ill. It's almost funny how disturbed I was by the thought of having to wear these clothes.

And the only reason I would contest this is that if we truly did live in a world free from these constraints, where would we get the idea that how we present ourselves is somehow tied to our biology?
