If I understand the conversation correctly, you have been talking about "transtrender", ie. people who do not experience body dysmorphia, or at least not diagnosably, and yet still want to be treated the same as other 'legitimate' trans people. Kinda saying that if you aren't really willing to go through what it takes to Actually become trans (medically) then you're just following a trend.
I think I replied to that as best I could with three points as to why I don't think doing that is harmful to anyone.
Green Badger brought out the standard trifecta of anti-trans gotchas, including ones about how horrible it is that people are getting surgeries, so it's clear they're not talking about transtrenders like you were. My response to that (imo mostly unrelated) comment wasn't even an argument as much as trying to point out that focusing on these issues is a distraction from the underlying point that they just don't seem to believe a person can be trans at all.
Anyways, if you have a specific argument or question I'm happy to try to answer if but I think I've said all I can, and if that's not good enough, I'm sorry.
Only bothering to say it at all to try to make the world a little bit nicer and safer for my friends in Florida rn who are dealing with a Lot from the government
