Let's start off with a definition. Gender euphoria is the opposite of gender dysphoria. Euphoria is "the strong feeling of joy when one’s gender is being respected and affirmed, whether through outward presentation that is being read correctly, through representation, or through inward acceptance of one’s own gender. Like dysphoria, it can come in many forms."
