I just can’t wrap my head around it. They want to be called and seen woman, but they have to get bottom surgery. Take hormone pills, all these excessive stuff to be a woman. They don’t have menstrual cycles nor can they carry a child. Why can’t they just be happy being a male and just wear feminine clothes? Like a femboy...

My god, you’re a genius. No trans person has ever tried “just being happy” with how they are. They put themselves through the misery and surgery and social stigmatisation, when all they had to do was “be happy”.
I bet you could solve depression too, if you put your mind to it.
You’ve had your shower thoughts, everyone is telling you why you’re wrong. At best your ideas are from the last century. At worst you’re just a troll. We can’t make you get with the times or summon the smallest amount of empathy for other people, but we can shun you for your offensive attitudes.

Counterpoint - if people don’t need to take crappy jobs just to afford food and shelter, those jobs will have to provide better pay and conditions to get employees.
Also, if more people can afford to get further education, you’ll get more doctors and engineers and high skilled workers, because they’ll be able to do the training instead of getting several minimum wage jobs just to support their families.
I’ve said it before - any society that can afford billionaires can afford to feed, clothe, shelter and provide basic medical care to all is members, it’s just choosing not to.
