Dysmorphia and dysphoria
Dysmorphia and dysphoria are two completely unrelated concepts that happen to have vaguely similar sounding words.
Body dysmorphia is when you think there's something wrong with your body, when in reality there isn't.
Gender dysphoria is when you get particularly depressed due to genuinely being on the wrong hormones and having to pretend to be the wrong gender.
Transphobes exploit how the words "dysphoria" and "dysmorphia" sound vaguely similar, conflating the two in order to discredit trans people. Make no mistake, the two concepts are completely unrelated.
