In real life I've ecountered far many more fakebois and nonbinary girls than TiM troons, maybe because it's socially easier for a girl to dress androgynously and cut her hair short than for a man to throw on a dress. I imagine that the prevalence of TRAs in early to mid 2010's Tumblr exposed many young, nerdy, socially outcast girls to troonery and led to the waves of troons we see now. I feel like TiM troons have more of an online presence because they are often more vocal about their trans identity. On the other hand, here are many TiF's online who never outright state that they are trans and try to go stealth, but are obviously female from selfies, interests in female-dominated fandoms, Yaoi/BL, he/him in bio, etc, which gives them a less obvious presence.Supposedly there are more Hispanic and black (almost double in the latter's case) trans people than whites, but IME I've seen way more white men troon out. Stats from that study put MTFs at double the amount of FTMs but I've heard (anecdotally) that FTMs are actually more prevalent somehow, despite MTFs dominating the troonosphere. I would say the online presence, at least, is overwhelmingly white MTFs but offline it seems to be more varied.
