Do you have any experience of dysphoria?
Does a male gynecologist need to experience a period to understand that they are uncomfortable? Does a psychologist need to experience mental illness to treat a patient? Does a person need to be world renowned author to identify exaggeration? Do I need to be Trump to know he's talking shit?

"Do I need to be part of a minority to pass judgement on their way of expression?"
No. But you at least need the ability to conceptualize the possibility of empathy existing if you can't feel it directly, in order to excel in any of those things (petulant assholery included).
It's also a requirement to have truly nuanced discussion; I fear you are wasting your time in this discussion and if it's not clear why, it's because of a failure of imagination on your part.
So is that a no? It's a discussion of empathy and you immediately turn it into a debate. Are teenagers often extremely dramatic? Of course! But I don't understand why we need to immediately discount their feelings or experiences because of it. I'm sure plenty of people who've gone on to end their own lives were described as dramatic as well. I just think we need to default to empathy over defending ourselves a little more in the modern world.

Relevance?
Clown.
Oh whatever. I genuinely don't get the point you're making but go ahead and be a dick
