Just for reference, the term is "dysphoria" not "disorder". The distinction, to me is important , if only in a theoretical manner. The former describes something as out of whack while the latter merely names a state or condition, not necessarily in need of correction.
I believe both gender and sexuality are neither one truly binaries. I believe rather that they are both continuous spectrums with an extreme at either end and most people somewhere in between. For those at or near one pole, it is easy to self identify with the extreme in order to fit in with the socially constructed binary. For the rest....they either live with discomfort and shame since they don't fit the binary model, or they accept themselves and do what they must (whatever that is...it's totally personal and unique to each of us) to find peace..
The rest is pretty academic, or so it seems to me. Labels are for soup cans.
I mean, you get one turn on this ride. Are you living it for yourself or to fit in with what other people think you should be? I know my answer to that question. And to quote Miss C, as far as what anyone else thinks, "my give a shit is broken"
