I also want to be a woman and don't have dysphoria - it's pretty common.
- Quite common. Most women wish to be women and do not have dysphoria.
  
  Source?
  
  definitely not true, most women would love to be men
  
  What if I offer them a ticket to the next High Patriarchy Council meeting? We're going to be discussing lowering the prices of dinosaur legos and how much cheese is too much cheese in a box of mac n cheese.
  
  I can't make this next meeting, but my input is:
  Lower prices for dinosaur Legos would be nice, but I'm worried I won't be able to self-moderate if they go lower, so they'd need to go much lower so I don't end up bankrupting myself with the more approachable prices
  Sometimes the machine puts 2 bags of cheese, but then only fills the box with enough noodles to hit the target weight, so double the cheese and commensurately less noodles. Too much cheese is somewhere between normal and this
  
  I will be sure to make your voice heard, brother brown.
  
  I'd rather discuss lowering prices of quality cheese and the non existence of dinosaur patterns on women's clothes - which is scandalous!
- That's... actually a form of dysphoria. I can attest from first-hand experience, wishing you were a woman is a form of dysphoria. You don't have to feel sad to be dysphoric, having a somewhat persistent desire to be seen as a different gender is enough.
  Edit: this is assuming you aren't already a woman >.>
  
  Eh I’ve never had dysphoria (I’ve always loved my body) but ever since I learned that my bits are different from some other peoples’, I’ve wanted so much to be able to switch back and forth, to experience both kinds!
  
  Yea I feel this like I'm cool as a dude and wouldn't want to not have been/be a dude but I really like experiencing different things and it'd be neat to experience being a woman for a bit
  
  It would be awesome if my SO and I could switch for a day.
  
  I think your edit covers it. Thats the joke
  
  Dysphoria by definition is about feeling bad (wikipedia calls it "a profound sense of unease", which seems pretty apt). It's the opposite of euphoria after all.
  You can be trans without gender dysphoria though, nothing wrong with that.
  
  Damn, I never made that connection. That's neat. Shame they didn't go with cacophoria though. I like that better.
  
  thats just not what dysphoria is.
  dysphoria is a sense of unease and discomfort with ones own self. its a mental disorder. wishing you were a girl does not mean you have dysphoria.
  
  I don't think the desire to be seen as a woman and the desire to be a woman are congruous. Are they?
  
  wishing you were a woman is a form of dysphoria.
  And wishing I was anywhen else than now is a form of?
- Feeling euphoria about being another gender is a sign of (TGNC) transgender and gender non-conforming individuals.
  
  I'm exactly what I want to be. And it's not another gender, I want to be a woman.
