Questions about Gender Dysphoria
#1
Okay, so when it comes to gender, there are no longer any traditional roles or qualities. Women can be tough, can be the bread winners in a family, be into cars, porno, etc. and men can cry and be sensitive, like fashion, etc. Correct?

Basically, outside of childbirth and breastfeeding, there's nothing one can say or do anymore that society says is strictly a man's role or a woman's role, correct?

If this is true (and I'm not saying it isn't), then why is there still such a thing as gender dysphoria? If society says that their are no longer gender-specific roles or characteristics, then how can I ever say "I'm a woman" though I've got a penis? How can one claim to feel like a woman if there is no one "right" way to feel like a woman or vice versa?

Just to be clear: I'm not trying to make a point. I'm genuinely curious as to how society can say that men and women are NOT different other than reproductive organs and then say that if you're born with a vagina, it's okay to say you're a man?

I've got an open mind and would like to find an answer.

Thanks.
