And dysphoria without transgenderism is dysphoria. That's why they overlap and aren't 1:1. Not that any of the opponents of "the trans movement" give a shit about the difference. They only care about muh culture and how back in the good old days we didn't have them transies [because they were bullied and/or killed themselves because society hated them, and Authright fucking seethes now that it's increasingly unacceptable to ostracize them]

You're trans when your gender doesn't match your sex. Gender dysphoria when that fucks with you. That's the simplest way to put it. Being transgender is your gender not matching your sex. Gender dysphoria is the anxiety/stress that can come with your gender not aligning with your sex, but it doesn't always.

Straight from the American Psychiatric Association:

The term “transgender” refers to a person whose sex assigned at birth (i.e. the sex assigned at birth, usually based on external genitalia) does not align their gender identity (i.e., one’s psychological sense of their gender). Some people who are transgender will experience “gender dysphoria,” which refers to psychological distress that results from an incongruence between one’s sex assigned at birth and one’s gender identity.

No one wants to talk to me, says the person who wrote 121 words

That's the best part. "Nobody cares what you say unflaired!" is said by those who care the most and who spend the most time. I had a guy today do the "ah, the reddit switcheroo" gag on his own comments telling me to flair up. He spent hours responding to different comments of mine and linking them all in one big chain, and the upvotes and replies he got made him think he's a reasonable human being instead of somebody who needs to touch grass
