The term pre-op does sound presumptuous, but the idea that bottom dysphoria could play a role isn't truscum. My partner loves topping and is on the fence about getting bottom surgery, but still has bottom dysphoria and that's a huge part of why she has trouble orgasming.

    Could be that the dysphoria is societal dysphoria or other kind. Like expectations to them. I have faced this towards my body hair.

    I feel uncomfy to go out in other things than jeans and high tigh and is mostly this. That does not means I needed full epilation but a environment where I felt safe to be myself there and not to worry for some hair in my legs.

    I definitely feel this! I haven't dealt with dysphoria in a long time, and I rarely deal with any form of bigotry in my personal life, but I still feel that pressure! I've been late to things because the stubble on my legs was just a little too long, even though it's unlikely anyone would notice it, and I had to shave. Hell, even today I wore a long skirt instead of shorts because I didn't have time to shave! Super annoying, especially because no one would likely notice or care, but I'm sure someone made an off comment when I was impressionable and now that's psychic damage I gotta live with.
