    To be fair, I’m cis and happy with my masculinity. But I’d still rather be a beautiful women than a guy who looks like I do.

      I feel like most people are ambivalent towards their gender. I feel like being purely cis or purely trans is more uncommon. But that’s just a feeling I’ve had.

        Yep. I’m 100% immune to this stuff and only sympathise with people suffering from wrong gender dysmorphia. If I was a woman none of my behaviour or perspectives would change, as I have a fairly ungender based view on the world and the role I have on it as a man and women have on it.

        With the obvious exception of romantic relationships.

    Being beautiful is a superpower, disregarding gender. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of “cis” people who are not conventionally attractive would choose to take this deal purely for the social benefits.

        I mean, I am a nonbinary person who does experience dysphoria. I just suspect that a lot of folks, especially those who don’t understand the consequences, would take the deal purely for perceived social benefits. Would they regret it? Possibly, yeah.
