    If you are trying to lump the nonbinary people in with actual trans people who transition you're being really disrespectful to people who are actually trans. Transition is an amazingly difficult process that is expensive, dangerous and mentally taxing.
    Trans is trans and it both counts. If you want to limit your definition of trans to strictly mean transsexuals, go for it, but that doesn't mean the rest of the world has to follow your lead or acknowledge your limited viewpoint.

    Being trans does not necessarily mean you must undergo bodily transition, either. That's crap, and not everyone can even be accepted for or afford it anyway. What you're proposing is just gatekeeping, and it's not even disguised well.

    In my opinion it seems like you are denying the trans people the consideration. You are blindly pushing this philosophy of yours without any real care into what it means for the people you'd like to think you "defend".
    Says the person who posted two long paragraphs right above that, pushing their "philosophy" on how they think every trans person must feel, when not every trans experience can be neatly summed up in two paragraphs.

    I hope you're not the type of person that says depression isn't a mental disorder and that those people just need to think positive thoughts or something based on your stance regarding that people having a gender identity crisis isn't some kind of disorder either.
    You're misrepresenting my stance pretty badly.

    I said that trans people experience a disorder if they feel like their condition causes disorder in their life, because it is not the kind of thing someone from the outside can judge for them. For some, probably even most of them, it does. Still doesn't necessarily mean all of them.
