Sure, superficially we see any plastic surgery as being "about looks" but for most people getting it done it is more about making their body represent their idea of what they should look like. An outward representation of their inner self. That is the same thing.

You think it's not all about looks because some people want their body to "look" a certain way?

Ok, so people want to look more like a woman, which they are.

A transgender person wants to look like the opposite sex, which they're not.

An increase in people who identify as it.

Also, there are more external societal pressures on people today than ever before thanks to social media and the internet as a whole. People are much more likely to be bullied because there is more access to them.

Just a maybe? It's a lot more accepted.

People ware bullied online because they're transgender? I think people that add people on social media know if the person that added them is transgender.
