Actual gender dysphoria is very rare, but psycologists have no real way to disambiguate between real cases and fakers.
Things such as prexisting mental issues, extremism, sexual behavior including fetishes, and being subject to trauma are warning signs of false diagnosis.
I present you with two rocks. They look the same. I explain one of the rocks is actually gold. It looks the same as the normal rock and can't be detected by any examination, no tool, no test shows any difference. Yet I insist the second rock is gold and be treated special. To you there are simply two normal rocks. Would you pay me a premium for this 'gold' rock? Would you make a special carve out in your legal system to enshrine and worship this rock?
My point: If there are 'normal' dysphoria cases and 'fake' cases, but nothing can tell the difference between them, how do we know it even exists? It is literally not a real thing. It's a figment of the imagination of the observer.
Its all made up crap anyway. What is the test for gender dysphoria? Blood draw? MRI? Cat scan? X ray? Ouija Board???

Let's do a thought experiment:
