There are absolutly real transgender people even if you only include androgen and estrogen insensitivity disorders which literally physically and biologically leave you as a man in a womens body or visa-versa. If you dont recognize tthat there are "real" transgenders at all you are naive or disingenious.

No, they're not "transgender". They're people suffering from hormonal imbalances. The entire concept was made up by a cabal of pedophiles.
By your logic, if tomorrow mankind developed a method to allow normal hormonal functions in the body of someone with androgen insensitivity, he'd still be a "transwoman" rather than a cured man.
You're mythologizing corporeal conditions into something metaphysical.
When treating the symptoms is the only way to be able to live with yourself, you treat the fucking symptoms.
I want to vent my frustration at what you're saying at you, but I know you mean well so it would be useless.
I've known several trans people for whom transition fixed almost every issue they had - and they were not involved in politics in any way, nor exposed to SJWs.
Stop being a fucking pathological contrarian. It's true that society's mechanisms of determining what is true and what is false have been co-opted and corrupted, but that doesn't mean everything you spout is true, it just means to be skeptical.
Also, calling gender dysphoria "being uncomfortable in your body" is like calling PTSD or anxiety disorders "being a bit nervous", or schizophrenia "having a wild imagination".
Yes there are. Trans people are not a new thing at all. Hell OP even mentioned crossdressers and the like, they've existed for centuries. Transgenderism even exists in nature. Look at clownfish or banana slugs.
What happened to OP is a modern version of something else thats been going on for centuries, mass hysteria created by social pressures. If it wasn't transgenderism it would be shit like the multiple personality hysteria that occured after the movie Sybil was released or any of the satanic panic shit form the 80s were people (mostly women) pretended to be possessed.
Anyone who fails to recognize both of these facts is a tool getting played. Plain and simple.
Murder cults have also existed throughout history. The Aztecs. The Thugees. Serial killers are a part of the human experience as much as transgenders are. All this existed before MK Ultra was ever a thing.
Holy smokes, Batman. Talk about missing the forest for the tree.
There are no "real trans people", just people who were infected by the same social spores earlier and bought in harder.

Gender Dysmorphia was treated for years before trans became trendy. He's right, many people with that condition hate the trans movement.
Being uncomfortable in your body does not mean that your body is wrong and needs changing. Attempting to treat the symptoms is not a cure.

You're clearly arguing in bad faith.
There are also dysfunctional sex chromosomes. The right chromosomes are there, but "broken".
Edit: If you want a good read, look into how the Olympics has tried to determine sex.
