Gender dysphoria, also known as gender identity disorder, is a psychological disorder in which a person identifies as another gender and experiences distress from the discordance between gender identity and actual anatomy. Chris was diagnosed with the condition in 2016.[note 1]
Chris & Dysphoria
Through the years one thing strikingly evident about chris is the complete and total lack of understanding he has for his own body. Though he belived that he was strong, handsome, carismatic and on the TRUE and STRAIGHT path, those beleifs have habitually found themselves to be quite the opposite, and nothing shows this principal more true than his prior belief that he is the absolute peak of the male form. Aside from moments when he would show some sort of discomfort or unfamiliarity, Chris tried his absolute hardest to convince everyone around him (as well as himself) that men are physcially superior. That being said, it is easy to belive that Chris doesn't exibit gender dysphoria at a glance, however his surface level bigotry has historically been hypocrytical and shouldn't be taken at face value.

Notes
- ↑ Chris changed the gender marker on his driver's license to identify him as female in 2016. The procedure to do this in Virginia is to have a professional whose "practice includes the treatment and counseling of persons with gender identity issues" vouch for the person's gender identity on this form.
