Gender dysphoria defined:
the condition of feeling one's emotional and psychological identity as male or female to be opposite to one's biological sex.
...which is exactly what people keep getting told being transgender means. But believing that is so bad now that it has a derogatory term attached to it that's pronounced "true scum."
From the SJWiki:
Based on their understanding of what it means to be trans (i.e., a purely medical condition), truscum accuse trans people who do not experience gender dysphoria of appropriating trans labels and culture as a fashion statement or as a misguided attention-seeking technique.
For what it's worth, there's a lot of pretty interesting neurological evidence to suggest gender dysphoria exists, and it's not really up for debate because it can't be fully proven one way or the other with our current level of technology.
Whether we need to be pumping kids full of hormones or have tax dollars paid for people to transition are completely different discussions.
But whether gender dysphoria exists doesn't really matter at this point because people who believe it's required to be transgender are being called truscum pieces of shit.
