If you could completely erase the dysphoria, would you? Would you choose not to be trans at all and be comfortable in the body you were born with?
Or if there were some magical way to simply have been born in the body you feel is correct, would you choose that instead?

There's times when I think 'if I could have been born in a male body, I would have it instantly'.
Then I remind myself that if that were the case, I wouldn't be me. I wouldn't have my twin sons. I wouldn't have the man that I love more than anything.
So I look at the other end of the spectrum and go 'if I could just erase the dysophoria and be a woman happily, could I?'.
But again...I wouldn't be me. This is a hard road that I'm on, a hard life I've had to live...but it shaped who I am today.
