I'm trans and I have dissociative symptoms/episodes that sometime interfere with my dysphoria, but never to the extent of not seeing my actual physical body. I'm not saying that this is impossible, I'm just not seeing how someone could not see their body for years, which is what Andy's trying to say here.

Dysphoria is of course very personal experience, but isn't Andrew Blake persona supposed to be cis and thus not feel dysphoria? Yeah, this whole argument hurts my brain. Which is probably what Andy is aiming at.

Obviously not all trans men have so called female body parts though. I'm not interested in speculating what Andy looks naked bc ew, gross and inappropriate, but I think people seem to forget this often.
