This has big “only trans people have gender identity” energy.
Comment on Is gender affirming care for cis people a thing?
Buffalox@lemmy.world 1 day agoThat’s not gender affirming care. That’s just men practicing and enhancing their masculinity.
It may be founded in insecurities, but those would be treated by a psychologist if an actual treatment were to take place.

You don’t know the meaning of the word.

roiding up, PED is most certainly gender affirming care, that is also railed on transgendered people.

Is “I hate my shoulders, I wish they were broader so that I could look more manly” and “I hate my boobs, I look like a plank, not a real woman” not dysphoric enough for you?

“I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller, I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her, I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 impala”
So is buying a classic car gender affirmation?

That’s not dysphoric but an issue with the standards for being what you feel you are.
Living up to ideals is not the same as being a prisoner in a body of a different gender than what you identify as.
Having a penis and hating it to a point where you want it removed, is not the same as having a penis that you think is to small.
Those are VERY different issues.
The issues may be valid, they are just not the same as gender dysphoria.
