A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I think asking for trans people is wrong because they genuinely are (in a sense of their core identity and perception of themselves) the gender they transitioned too.

But a different question would be for example, for someone who got disbled later in life, are you disabled in your dreams?

The answer (atleast for me) in that case, is mostly I am, but not always, and sometimes less severely so than in real life.
