truscumz:

saying that you “don’t need dysphoria to be trans” is literally equivalent to saying that being trans is a CHOICE, because, guess what? without dysphoria (the discomfort of being seen as/seeing oneself as one’s birth sex) you would literally have no internal motivator/drive to present as the opposite sex. it’s literally basic psychology and I don’t get why it’s that difficult to understand? having dysphoria doesn’t mean that you “hate yourself” at all times, it could just be a minor discimfort as presenting as your birth sex? it’s not that hard of a concept to grasp, yet I still see people on here grouping “truscum” in with terfs and transphobes?? and that makes literally no sense, because it’s those saying that being trans is a choice (“tucutes”) that are the transphobic ones. I’m just…. so tired of seeing misinformed people on tumblr being like “don’t interact if truscum/terfs uwu” like? most truscum are literally trans and are not at all transphobic but ok sis
