I'm trans nonbinary and 31 years old. I have been aware of being trans nb since I was 25. I have NO DYSPHORIA. Repeat. None. Socially I am not comfortable being misgendered but this is not dysphoria. It is beyond important for people to realize being trans can be an experience of joyous liberation and does not need to have misery attendant to be valid. I'm wary as shit of people who tell me how to most validly experience being trans; I'm sure you wouldn't like it either.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Its actually good to see people with different experiences, for me to learn about tough subjects like these. I realise over the months after I published that summary that I had not quite grasped the idea of non dyphoric trans. I never wanted to upset of invalidate others but rather put down what I thought at the time was right. So to anyone I let down because of that, I'm sorry.
I need to update that post now that I realise that, yes some trans people are not dysphoric and yes, they are as valid as those who do have dysphoria.
So thank you friend.
