@mxsiege@octodon.social Sure!

My dysphoria is Physical and emotional. I'm off meds right now, and going through a major testosterone spike.

So I get irritable, I get headaches, I'm aggressive, uncomfortable, and suffer from GI tract problems and an enlarged prostate that creates it's own host of issues.

My body has always been somewhat androgynous, I never went bald like my younger brothers, and most of my Gender Role Dysphoria was trauma-induced from my upbringing.

And I'm a Plural system, and one of my headmates absolutely can Not stand man-smell. So that has an aspect of physical dysphoria to it.

Really, HRT gives me a lot of gender Euphoria: My body reacts to even low-dose meds dramatically, my skin softens, I'm not irritated and intense all the time, and I smell the way I feel like I Should smell.

The rest of it is almost a Moot Point, if I wanna "Be a Girl" I can just put Kerithe out front and she just Radiates 'Woman' so hard that Passing isn't an issue.

Hence the 'Hermaphrodite' label. I can do Both, do them well, and some other stuff besides. I can feel totally Fine pulling my car over after hitting a nasty pothole, stalk out and plop down on the pavement and have a full conversation with the mechanic guy who pulls up behind me because he saw the smoke.

And the fact I'm wearing a skirt and leggings is Less important than "Yep, that's a Ford, Fix em with a hammer"

And then I go fix the thing on the side of the road, still in girlclothes. Not optimal, and I tore one of my nice skirts, but the Car got home in one piece.

So when it comes to Dysphoria? I had a Lot More dysphoria trying to get other Guys to treat me like a Man, than just Being non-binary, and wearing what I like to wear. The Hormonal profile is more of a Medical Problem at this point.
