Not all transgender people have gender dysphoria but all people with gender dysphoria are transgender.
And? Transgenderism hasn't been listed as a mental illness for a while now. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness experienced by many transgender people whose recommended treatment is transitioning.
Gender Dysphoria is the effect that many trans individuals will have prior to methods such as sexual reassignment surgery at which point their gender dysphoria usually goes away. Gender dysphoria and transexuals are not the same thing.
Also, "transgenderism" is commonly seen as a hateful slur amongst the transgender community.
I mean personally I don't see the comparison seeing as transgender is the technically correct term. It seems about the same as transhumanism but I'll avoid using it in the future.
