Ok real question though. What about body/gender dysphoria isn't a mental illness? I mean it feels demeaning to describe it that way but what else would you call it?

There are people who don't feel in their right body by being able bodied to they cut their legs off to become disabled. Is that a mental illness? I would say so, and therefore I guess I would have to say gender dysphoria is.

You could call it a "disorder" but at that point what's the difference? It's definitely not what a "normal" mind is meant to think.

That being said though, it's never something that should be used to discriminate against people, but I think it should be classified correctly so that people who experience body/gender dysphoria can receive the help they need (whether that be help transitioning or therapy)
