If you're a Transmedicalist why? (futurology.today)

I believe everyone who feels different than their AGAB and identifies as something different is valid as a trans person. Why would someone need to have gender dysphoria or scientific proof to be valid in their identity.

If you think this or something like it why do you? I want to hear from people who think this, and no I don't agree with them at all. I'm am against transmedicalism aggressively. I just want to understand why.

I'm not a transmed but can say that certain organizations cannot provide gender affirming care without following a policy that requires a dysphoria diagnosis first. It allows doctors to cover their assess in case something stupid happens
