Answering a question with a reversed situation isn't relying on a hypothetical to answer a question, it's a further exploration into why a overly simplistic reasoning doesn't work.

We aren't going to agree because I do not believe being trans is a medical condition, but rather an identity. I didn't say all people are trans, if that were the case I wouldn't have worked with other trans members of this forum to have a trans only section. You're jumping to conclusions because you do not like the answers I am giving you.

Yes, it is elitism. Just like it is elitism for cis women to deny access to a trans women in woman only spaces. Transgender means, in it's definition form, "Transgender is the state of one's gender identity or gender expression not matching one's assigned sex.". One can be trans without experiencing dysphoria of the body because they rely more on the feelings of the mind. One can be trans and not feel dysphoria because they fall out of the mtf ftm trans binary. One can be trans and not feel dysphoria because they were privelleged enough to have a safety net within their family and their friends and were given the tools they need to block dysphoria.

Also, it is very important to remember that not all trans people are neurotypical. We have autistic trans people, cognitive disabled trans people, learning disabled trans people, which means feelings of dysphoria can fluctuate from extreme dysphoria, to no dysphoria. If we're talking about all trans people, we need to include all of them.

If someone doesn't feel dysphoric, they aren't appropriating anything. They just don't feel dysphoric in their body. And it does one well to remember being trans isn't all about the transition physically, but is HEAVILY mentally. There are a lot of people here on this board who have transitioned mentally but have not physically. Yeah, they might have dysphoria, but if they don't, what on earth gives anyone the power to say "not trans enough" or "not really trans" or "not really nb/gq/IS"?

The meaning of the original post was to defeat thinking like this in a safe community created by trans members. Your trans status does not rely on 1) how you dress 2) if you transition physically 3) if you have surgery/don't have surgery, etc.

So no, not everyone is trans. But not ever trans person suddenly holds the place standing to tell other trans people they are lesser than because they experience something different.
