I get really mad when people trivialize trans issues by acting like all it takes to be trans is wearing the clothes of the opposite gender.

STOP.

Trans is not how you dress or act, it’s how you identify.

So quit screaming that every boy in a dress in a show is transgendered because that’s basically profiling and generalizing what ‘trans’ means.

It’s just the same as saying anyone with a lisp must be gay.

There is a very medical reason for being trans. Biologically, male and female brains have subtle differences, each with their pros and cons. Brains and bodies develop at different speeds in the womb so it is possible for the brain to literally have the wrong body. It’s not as simple as wearing a dress or changing your voice, it is an actual medical condition which causes gender dysphoria. Gender Dysphoria is an important part of identifying if someone is trans.
