Good god the medical system is awful about trans stuff, isn't it? Absolute nightmare of a system, when it would be so easy to just give hormones to people who are like, hey, my life is better with hormones.
I didn't actually realize that was the history of these terms, thanks for explaining. I guess "gender incongruence" is better, at least it's not saying the person experiencing it is disordered. Still though, especially this far into transition, I don't actually feel any "incongruence". I'd be miserable if I had to stop taking testosterone, but having experienced that feeling, I wouldn't describe it as gender incongruence, or, frankly, even having anything whatsoever to do with gender! My body just runs better with a testosterone-dominant endocrine system.
Ah well, the medical system is what it is, and despite the fact that the terminology used for us fucking sucks, there's not really a better option right now.
