you are acting like being trans is some kind of disability or flaw, when it is not. consider if you said “all people blind at birth would rather be born with sight.” that is certainly not true, as for many it’s a key facet of their being despite making life more difficult.

Sure but if you need to take a bunch of medicine and do surgeries you that’s not a net positive, medicalizing your body has serious repercussions involving post op care, up keep, it’s expensive and your body is no longer autonomous, it’s reliant on the pharmaceutical industry or shady DIY “treatments”

I am physically disabled from birth I’ve had to take handfuls of meds daily and had to have extreme surgery… I don’t know any disabled person who would choose to be disabled
