The whole "learning to be a woman" thing I find really irritating. In particular because it suggests that in a world without gender roles, there would be no need to transition. Really I don't have gender dysphoria, I have sex dysphoria. My body is wrong, nothing more.
How is it that I completely fail at agreeing with either side?
To each his own, but there is merit to learning how women walk, talk, interact, etc. Just becuase a big, burly biker demands that they be accepted as the woman they are doesn't make it so.
FWIW, I keep telling my therapist its not a clothing thing, its a body thing. At this stage, dressing in female clothing doesn't make me feel any better about my situtation; if anything its exactly the opposite.
