I could only watch a few minutes of her videos because her voice is SO GRATING
She's like a kindergarten teacher who wants to tell me all about her upcoming top surgery and how abnormosexuality is valid.

On a more serious note, I noticed that she's had therapy and thought that maybe she'd gotten actual help.

Nope. Ash spends this entire video shilling an online therapy website (who she has a sponsorship with, so no conflict of interest there!) and talking about her cherrypicked therapist who validated everything she said about being nonbinary. That was nine months ago. For reference, most therapists are going to require someone to live for at least a year in Real Life Experience to make sure that they're transgender.

Then, we get two videos, one right after the other, in which we discover she is going to have top surgery in July (I believe). They were posted two months ago, meaning that she's come to this decision VERY QUICKLY.

I dislike Ash. This doesn't mean I want her to have actual dysphoria and regret for what she's done. However, it's very concerning that she's chosen to so dramatically alter her body over such a short time span.

I don't really want her to develop real dysphoria either. Partly because she'll be hurting god knows how many people by regretting transitioning; she'll just become another statistic and yet another "but regrets after transition means trans people shouldn't get help and look how many people regret it" quote for people who are very anti-transgender.

She's made the decisions very quickly, as well as not actually really living as anything other than her assigned gender. She's not on hormones, she doesn't have much of an idea of transitioning and what it's like. She's thrown herself in the deep end by getting a complicated surgery that takes months to fully heal that may not be reversible due to her anatomy post-op. At least if she started hormones, it's a dramatic step, sure, but she'd understand sooner that she doesn't want to transition and have less permanent mental scarring from it, as well as not so large effects from testosterone, should she want to stop it depending on how early she stops.
 
So, is she going to be another Milo or Phil by doing something to her body that's serious and irreversible just so that she can prove a point/fuck over the haters? That's sad.

Yes and no. It is possible, however I think it's mostly something to do with the fact that she's unbelievably misinformed on what trans is, and being misinformed on trans issues as a whole.

I'm almost certain she's under the impression that you don't need dysphoria to be trans; that on top of believing that wanting to have short hair (as opposed to the long hair she had in a ponytail for her videos) means she has dysphoria and that her not conforming to gender roles is proof of her transgenderism is probably why she thinks transitioning is right for her.

Another story about a kid who transitioned without dysphoria developing real dysphoria. The authenticity of the story is debatable, as I don't have the direct source of the story, just a screencap. If I can find it I'll edit this post.
Her misinformation on what dysphoria actually is, as well as believing the whole "you don't need dysphoria, you just have to be uncomfortable with the gender roles typically assigned to your birth sex, that's totally not sexist, if you don't act like your birth sex, you're obviously trans!!!" shit spiel that a lot of nonbinary/transtrenders use to describe their reason for transitioning is probably why she's choosing to do it.

Which (and this should go without saying) is a terrible reason to transition. I mean, she's more likely to be doing it for herself (possibly to solidify her being "trans"), but a small part of me does believe that she's also doing it to prove something in a way.
 
I don't understand why lesbians don't just call themselves lesbians or androgynous anymore. I guess they get more oppression points calling themselves non-binary trans men. *shrug*

Exactly. It’s too easy to be “just a lesbian.” In order to be “unique” and “brave” you have to make up a bunch of shit and shove it in everybody’s faces.

Even Ashley's wife is now a non-binary god knows what, I actually can't remember how her wife identifies herself. I remember there was a video on it where she said what she sees herself as but fucked if I know.

I guess autistic people have some sort of "Tism-dar" and they attach themselves to the nearest one?
 
Weird thing is I (and I'm guessing a lot of others) comprehend other people in the community just fine, dysphoric trans people are actually pretty great to talk to. However if someone is clearly not trans, i will not address said person as such. I believe a lot of others on this site (who are chill with transgender people) are the same.
If you haven't got any purpose calling yourself trans, I'm not humoring you.

Lets not forget we have trans kiwi regulars on the site, and there is never any drama with them.

Then again they don't do the whole "mix and match a whole lot of shit into my identity" to make themselves unique, they are content with their identity.

I believe all these LGBTQWTFBBQ people simply struggle to stand out among the crowd and latch onto a whole lot of unneeded shit or have actual psychological problems that need to be addressed by real professionals and not the current generation of enabling "therapists"

Oh boy. Here we go...

I love how she's using these to go on a whole "fuck you I don't need to prove anything" spiel on twitter. Thing is, without proof, what are people supposed to do... Take your word for it, when lying on the internet is extremely easy? I doubt that.

Sure, she doesn't have to share any diagnosis, but she can't expect anyone to just blindly believe she has one with nothing to back her claims.

Someone replied, asking how it's anyone else's business but hers. Well, thing is, if you're living partly in the public eye, hardly anything is private anymore. Sucks, but that's how it is. If you don't want people to talk about you, and you clearly can't handle it, don't live in the public eye.
Documenting things online is gonna mean it's out there, and people are free to question and criticise you. That's the consequence and reality of being a celebrity or internet personality. Sorry 'bout it.
 
She hates gender roles, yet doesn't really try to be a man in any way, shape, or form...

So she's just a semi-butch lesbian that hates shaving. Why cut off awesome boobs to be a lesbian?
 
It's pretty common to see MtFs with a facial structure that could not possibly pass for female, even with FFS.
This girl is like the rare female equivalent. That is the most female face I've ever seen. Round, short face with no browbone or jaw definition to speak of. Also, she looks alarmingly like a toddler in a way I can't quite articulate.

because according to her, she is non-binary, which is a thing that doesn't actually exist.

that she was ''diagnosed'' with dysphoria is meaningless, the entire ''trans health'' industry is a scam.

I doubt she actually went to a psychiatrist or any form of professional that has been practicing for years that could shed any light on what's going on, which i'm guessing would be more along the lines of dysmorphia as opposed to dysphoria, although. having said that, a lot of people like Ashley (Laineybot is one of them) uses dysphoria and dysmorphia interchangably- like I said before she appears to be unbelievably misinformed as well as very stuck in trans/identity politics. Hell, I'm surprised she's not gone through informed consent like Milo Stewart did. Would have been more entertaining if she did though, so it's a shame.

Considering she's most likely in the camp of "being transgender isn't a mental illness/condition", even though it full well is, the legitimacy of her actually having seen anyone is clearly horseshit. Why would she see someone who tells her that it's actually a mental condition and therefore not the uwu softboi "not a medical condition" definition that a lot of nonbinary people see it as.

On top of that, i'm certain i've seen videos where she makes it obvious she believes you don't need dysphoria to be trans, it's likely she doesn't have a shred of dysphoria anyway. Nondysphorics are the first to tell you that you don't need dysphoria or anything going on in that brain of yours to be transgender other than "i don't conform to gender roles, i'm totally trans, validate meee or i'll tweet about you"

ugh

Because she's post op now (lol) she made a masterpost seemingly calling people out for being skeptical... weird that once again, we're expected to just take her word for it.... "Muh privacy and I shouldn't have to give proof tho", she's not really offered any proof despite talking a big game about "lol but I signed this and that"

I'm curious to see if she'll develop gender dysphoria now. Maybe she'll get phantom titties like some women that have theirs removed.

If not, well, that's good for her, then. If only she stopped being so obnoxious.

I think she'd probably get real dysphoria from things like hormones, which makes me wonder about "muh therapy" due to 'atypical dysphoria' being a lot of trender BS 99% of the time. So of course it just makes me think there will be some regret from her even if it's not much.

Surely if she had dysphoria and was going to therapy for 5 years, unless it was medically a bad idea (like it would affect her health badly) she would be on hormones by this time or recommended to go on hormones before being recommended surgery. Though she doesn't go into that or talk about why she hasn't gone on testosterone despite "muh body hair dysphoria thoooo" (like I said she also thinks you can have dysphoria because of head hair length, and even made a whole video about it).

I wouldn't be taking her idea to get surgery/having dysphoria/going to therapy with such a pinch of salt if her dysphoria videos weren't so nonsensical and asinine- she even said in a video that she doesn't like her boobs because they're too womanly, and therefore don't 'align' with her genderqueer identity, then goes on to say that body parts dont define gender, and that her boobs "delegitimize" her to other people. So her getting surgery for herself? Nuh-uh... also: being naked in videos talking about why you don't like your body. Makes sense.
It hella strikes me as dysmorphophobia and not dysphoria.

She's really hitting at people who ask for any proof. Saw a lengthy twitter exchange between her and someone else, who asked "well why'd you bring it up and won't actually give any proof when people doubt you?". God forbid someone doesn't just blindly take your word for everything, especially when there's been so many videos about dysphoria that really do not prove anything whatsoever.

The points that person made are very true- if she's gonna bring it up as a reason for people to believe her and stop being so critical of her, and won't give any verification, won't cite anything, it's almost like she just expects people to just believe her and not question. Oh no! someone questioned you because lying on the internet is a thing, and you can't just believe anything you read. I mean if that's how the world worked, there'd be the worldwide belief that the earth is flat or some shit. Brian Cox could say that he traveled in time and punched Hitler for the lulz and people would just have to believe him even without solid proof.

Her reluctance to give any solid backing of her claims is extremely suspicious if you ask me.
It's not that people don't believe her because of her previous social media content... Oh wait, that's exactly how it is.
