This is how Jesus felt when trying to teach the pharisees.
It's not hypocrisy. Many laws and policies are based on feelings, such as the stalking law I mentioned earlier (it must demonstrably cause "fear or alarm", in most statutes' wording), as well as laws about threats made.
Besides it's not just about how they feel. It's who they are at the deepest possible level. It's so strong that the dysphoria causes severe psychological issues until resolved (if the person decides the surgery/hormone therapies are worth it, of course), which is why it's in the DSM5. Basically, it's people like you who hurt them so badly based on a freakin' body-part, which causes it. You should read about it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_dysphoria
If you were objective, instead of reacting emotionally to something that you find disgusting, you could see this clearly instead of clucking like a pair of hens and patting yourself on the back for finding a bit of (false) righteous indignation to make you feel like Jesus.
actually used that link acouple of times myself.
