Do you think transgender (with dysphoria) should be considered a form of intersex condition? On one hand I think that transgender people could benefit from associating more closely with the medical side of their issues (it would win over people who tend to be dismissive of LGBT issues), on the other hand, this excludes people who want to fall under the "trans*" umbrella without having dysphoria/GID.

If we could have a different name than the special snowflakes, I would actually be a lot more accepting of these gender nonconforming lifestyles. I would prefer we keep the name trans and they change their name, since that's what the public already knows us as, but I don't think special snowflakes would ever cooperate so I think a vote to change our name to something like Sexual BIID or something is needed.

hmm that makes some sense. "dysphoric trans" seems to be a clear enough descriptor within the trans community…maybe just referring to yourself as someone with GID?
