Why do people think that you need bottom surgery to be trans? (lemmy.world)

Like there are some people who think that we're not valid if we don't. Don't people know how expensive and painful it is. Plus some of us just like what we got ya know. I'm proud to be a trans girl who still has the bits. Why is this so hard for people to understand? Also some people seem to think it's much more common than it actually is.

I identify as trans, and I don't want to/have bottom surgery (I'm afraid of any kind of permanent body modification). I also don't really look fem, but that doesn't stop me from calling myself trans. it just feels right.
