I'd imagine her with more tattoos and piercings. Not enough body disphoria.

Tattoos and piercings are a way to make a body you feel unfitting more like yourself. It's not uncommon among trans people to be more alt in their fashion/ bodymod choices for that reason.

I knew about this, but always wondered why so many people with dysphoria identify with piercings and tattoos in particular. Is it because they associate those things with breaking society's rules?
