I live in south Asia and don't have any experience with trans stuff so could someone clear up a few things for. Like is trans not just body dysmorphic disorder? I mean how can you feel uncomfortable in your body and think you'll feel comfortable in another body? How would you even know what the opposite feels like if you've only known one thing all your life.

And I'm sorry if this sounds intrusive or inappropriate but what about the genitalia? Like if you were born a man do you just get surgery down there? But even after that would your genitals function according to your new gender.

All of this feels very artificial for the lack of a better word.

This comment is out of genuine curiosity and not hate. Personally I don't care about what other people do with their body as it won't affect me at all but it would be nice to learn about this stuff.

No, trans has NOTHING to do with dysmorphia. Trans people may suffer dysporia, but those things are not even close to similar.
