Not saying this isn't true, but it misses the point that dysphoria / unhappiness with one's own appearance are things that exist beyond the "how cis people are going to treat you".

So clownish that 1) we barely know how many of us there are; and 2) despite being a tiny minority (of the larger gender-variant community), we're constantly portrayed as hegemonic and privileged by that same community #cissexual

Reddit comment by SortzaInTheForest:

around 40% of nonbinary people pursue medical transition.

That's incorrect.

Around 0.1% of people pursue medical transition (approximately). From your link, 20% percent of that group would be NB, which means around 0.02% of total population are (or would be once the NB trend estabilizes) NB pursuing medical transition, around 1 in 5000.

Right now, 5% of young adults identify as NB. From the total demographics of young adults, 0.1% will pursue or are pursuing medical transition, and from that group 20% will be NB.

That means that from every 5000 young adults, 250 of them identify as NB, 5 of them will transition, 1 of them will transition and identity as NB. The percentage of Non-Binary that pursue medical transition would be 1 in 250.

Of course, numbers are very approximate and should be taken with a grain or salt (or two), but the order of magnitude should be there. When we're talking about percentage of NB pursuing medical transition, we're talking ¿1 in 100?, ¿1 in 300?, ¿1 in 500? who knows the real number (probably nobody knows), but that'd be the order of magnitude.

"Trenders are taking our rights away-" No, they're not. Amy with her purple hair and pronoun pins isn't walking into a polling booth and voting for a conservative candidate. You know who is, though? Your neighbor Diane, who gets all of her information from FOX news.

Diana the extreme conservative Karen that only watches Foxy News, she can't turn the laws upside down, you need to win moderates for that. And you win moderates by winning the battle of public image.

One of the greatest acts of gaslighting ever perpetrated upon trans women, and transsexuals more broadly, is the idea that being a binary transsexual woman is less revolutionary than being a non-conforming cissexual. A stunning amount of transmisogyny flows downstream from that.

That someone like this is ostensibly a figurehead for the trans movement is a testament to how much we have lost control of the ship. Healthcare is the priority. Alienating potential allies by describing sports concerns as "sexist", "racist" and "eugenic" is an incredibly poor strategy.

Friendly reminder in the wake of Skrmetti. Transfems/MtFs should not buy into the psyop about DIY HRT being dangerous; we have the most to lose from not receiving hormones, and must take our own health into our own hands to live the lives we desire. NGNM take estrogen regardless of the laws.

Sadie Slee (She/Her) @psychoendocrine.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

99% of trans women I have met would never describe estrogen as "generally shitty", but a non transitioning theymab thinks it's analogous to AZT because it makes it sometimes makes it so you can't knock up women. The comparison is ironically both homophobic and transphobic meansof.org/tag/trangst/

They know that bringing up race (even when barely or not at all relevant) is the leftist cheatcode for "don't contradict me or you're ontologically racist" And it works because most of us would rather avoid getting dogpiled by a hordes of leftists (both honest, and bandwagon-jumping clout chasers)

The rise of anti-autonomy "radical" feminists in online LGBT/trans circles is pretty concerning. Feminists once fought for freedom to get abortion, birth control, gender transition, and marriage. Now a subculture of reactionary identitarian radfem trolls oppose women making choices they dislike.

Validity is the celebration of inaction. It's no different from being an 80s homophobe who claims to have (or used to have) same-sex thoughts that they nevertheless don't indulge in. Except worse, because it's taken by 90%+ of the trans community as something heckin' wholesome and profound.

I am getting spotty reports of hospital systems in blue states cancelling gender affirming care appointments for those under 19 years of age. If true, this would be a major problem, as systems comply with illegal EOs in advance out of fear of DOJ weaponization. Please let me know if yours has.
