Transmedicalism

Transmedicalism is when people think that one needs gender dysphoria to be transgender.^[1] The people who think this are called transmedicalists. People who disagree with transmedicalists sometimes call them truscum or transmeds.^[2]

Some transmedicalists also do not agree with the idea of being non-binary.^[3]
