if lots of men want vaginas and breasts, then why is it ok for a man to say “I want a vagina and breasts and that’s why I identify as a woman”? by your own logic, shouldn’t pretty much all dysphoric trans women actually identify as dysphoric cis men? it’s just not making any sense and I wonder if you’ve put even the slightest bit of thought into this
I've actually put a lot of thought into this, far more than you've put into attempting to even understand what any of my posts say.
Physical sex trait dysphoria is not synonymous with social gender dysphoria, for one, and you can have one without the other.
And you don't need either to be trans, trans people just often do have one or both.
Physical sex traits have a social gender association under pericisnormativity, and plenty of trans people strive for that gendered look to ease their social dysphoria via passing better. Some are uncomfortable with their traits regardless of the gender association they hold, and have a raw disconnect from their body. And many trans and nonbinary people aren't trying to 'pass' as anything, they are just living the way that is most comfortable to them.
Whats the difference between a GNC cis man getting estrogen and a trans woman getting estrogen then? Easy. One is a woman and the other is a man. Because that's the gender they identify as. This isn't hard.
Gender identity is not prescriptive or indicative of a type of person, it is a form of self-expression. You, or I, or anyone else, does not get to decide what someone "should actually identify as" based on a set of characteristics.
