I've known quite a few people with disassociation, body dysmorphic disorder or gender dysphoria (the thing joining them all being a disconnection from outside perceptions of themselves) and none of those people would call their condition nature's horrible mistake. It makes me extremely sad that anyone feels that way about their body.
Do most transwomen want their condition (not in the medical sense, I mean their state of being.) to be viewed as the result of a disease (gender identity disorder, gender dysphoria etc) or do they want it to be viewed as a cultural and intellectual choice/movement? Is it both?
Doesn't binary mean one of two? How is a transwoman non-binary if she is a woman? If women's gender (feminine, submissive, oppressed) is destructive to women then why do liberal feminists say is it suitable for transwomen? Is it subversive to say you are a woman when you are male?
I'm sorry for all the questions but I'm stumped : (
