Something my friend posited to me which I thought was excellent today:

We have a problem when we choose, as a society, to define ‘transgender’ as that which is necessarily causing unhappiness. “Being trans is bout being unhappy with the body you were born with” “Being trans means you feel distressed with your gender” “Being trans means you don’t like X, Y and Z about your life and want to change it.”

It’s important to recognise and support transgender people through suffering. But I question how healthy it is to actually define transgender life by that suffering, on a day to day basis, in the real lives and dialogues with real trans people. Let’s flip it for a second:

“Being trans is about realising what you need to be happy in your body.” “Being trans is about rejecting what hurts in favour of what brings joy and meaning.” “Being trans mean’s looking forward to changes in life that will improve general wellbeing.”

This label shouldn’t be associated in the public mind with self-loathing- it should be associated with self-love.
