I know we're probably in the minority here but honestly I agree with you. Alicia/Terry just seems like someone who's just happy to explore some new genderfuck identity and isn't looking for pity points or screaming about transphobia. They just wanna be their weird selves and frankly if more trans folks were like them this thread wouldn't be nearly as big as it is.
Yes yes, I know its still likely some kinda mental illness, but I'd still much rather see someone just be happy to wear a dress that doesn't also come with a boatload of fetishes and a persecution complex yknow?
As a surrogate for being loved themselves by a man, they identify with another man loved by a man, kind of like the way straight dudes fetishize lesbians.
When dudes fetishize lesbians, I thought it was because they wanted a 3-way....
But (apparently hetero) women being into (m/m) slash fiction has always been a headscratcher for me. Yet they're apparently the majority of the authors and readers.

Basically his research concluded that women consume much more written erotica compared to men consuming more visual, explicit pornography. (Straight) women's tastes focus on confident and strong but sensitive/caring men. So two strong alpha males (like the classic KirkxSpock) breaking down and indulging in their tender hidden feelings is like doubly hot to a significant subset of women. I guess in grocery store romance novels the woman is mostly useless and only exists for the readers to paint themselves into the scene, so some enterprising middle aged erotica writers thought of just replacing her with another attractive man and the idea took off.
Also his research came to some other interesting conclusions, like how it's likely that feet are a sexual interest among a significant subset of men in basically every human culture. (So explaining shit like chinese foot binding and high heels)
The worst stuff was a slow build over time. For the first few years we didn't live together and things could be hidden easier. I'm a gender non conforming woman into gender non conforming men so trannys kinda make up a huge part of what was my dating pool since all the femme guys are trooning out I am not unlike Sinners Sandwich in that they also tried to tell me I was trans...
Oddly enough Daddy Warbucks didn't start really shelling out the cash until my ex was really going off the deep end. I was working FT so a lot of this was stuff I found out after the fact.

The way it was explained to me was that it was partly that, but partly that men are (in general) more sexually motivated vs. romantically motivated, and so they enjoyed seeing two women engage with sexuality without input from a man, of their own accord. Similarly, i believe thats why women enjoy yaoi- they are (generally) more romanitcally motivated than sexually motivated, and so they like seeing two men engaged in romance unprovoked by a woman.

This jives with what i've seen/ read. Obviously theres more nuance at the individual level, but still. And i think the written vs. visual thing can be explained by this as well, given that, if women are more interested in the emotional aspect at play, they'd prefer written erotica, which has more of a capacity to focus on that.
It's a damn shame that so many gnc men troon out but I don't recommend dating trannies. Even the ones that aren't autogynephiles are mentally fucked. Trooning out is a sign of declining mental health. Even if it's a fad - the troon mindset is insanity.
This is the sort of self-hatred I will never understand. Removing your breasts is not enough.
Get rid of the nipples as well.
Are the any women here who can explain to me what this is about?
I don't think they're getting the nipples removed on purpose. From what I've read it's not always possible to save the nipples, and in many cases where they put them back on, they don't really heal and might fall off. Additionally I've seen detransitioners talk about how the nipples usually become really painful afterwards and never really go back to normal sensation.

Thank you for your reply. To think that young girls would do that on purpose was revolting to me.
I guess it's better if their nipples rot off through no fault (sort of) of their own.

Last couple years I have been rather single for exactly these reasons. Troons hate me because I see them as the gender non conforming men they are.
I can attest that many of them retain their maleness under a thin veneer of uwu catgirl. That's why they are all porn addicted.
I am not sure how much or what kind of things my fellow kiwis would want to know but as I sit on my throne on top of peak trans these are my thoughts: Over the last 20 years I have dated, lived with, associated with, and been friends with a large number of primarily MTF though there are also some FTMs. I created an side biz that led me to a variety of conventions and pride events over the years where I got a deep dive and inside troon life. I should also mention that an alarming amount of trannys have borderline as well as narcissistic personality disorder. There was a study (Source if someone can find) that actually showed troons have a 50% more likelihood of having a personality disorder. The borderline and narc rages can explain a lot of the lolcows here. Also the sexual deviancy: Oh My God. The impulsive behavior leads to a lot of cheating. And what do these stunning and brave ladies do? They cruise for sex like gay men on Grindr and CL. I'm not surprised to see Trannys on Grindr since CL shut down the personals. I have been called a chaser in the past, but I think these guys are actually smarter than me bc they get the sex and GTFO where I stayed on for torture most of the time. Chasers are a thing and they love to come to tranny conventions. Oh yea. Google First Event Conference, Southern Comfort, Fantasia Fair... It was fun to watch the troons take over the crossdressers and sissys suck and fuck fest to turn them into medical and educational safe spaces. (I have some more stories about these) Another thing to note is how clueless troons are to actual female anatomy and how many of them are grossed out by menstruation.
Self ID and the WHO making it no longer a mental illness was the worst idea ever.
Also, I learned that the very HRT makes them irratic and mentally unsound. To this day after 20 years I have not met a single FTM or MTF that I could say was a healthy person. Some are just better at hiding their dysfunctions than most. I just can't think that level of self hatred is natural.
For a very long time I struggled with the question: Are all trannys nuts? Seriously this has been a big issue as I am looking for a male GNC partner - but all of them are either troons or so deep in troon culture that their minds are so open their brains are falling out.
And as for the NBs - Fuck off with that shit and be the gender non conforming. No I will not call you zir.
@Sinners Sandwhich - So much solidarity with your posts!
Don't be fooled folks the emperor is indeed naked.

Sounds like these bridges have already been burned, but yes: be careful there, @ForbiddenVelma960. If any of what you're saying is true (we have no verification, after all), you may be cruisin' for a brigadin' (or an actual brusin') if you're still anywhere near these people.
Ah okay, because you said "dollar" I assumed you meant the US of A. I'm not American, so idk how it works but I thought you were talking about insurance or medicare or something

My first guess would be sexual trauma. Her Reddit history doesn't reveal much other than she's nerdy and a weeb. It's always anime so...
Someone else from that sub posted this which might some insight into the rationale behind it.
She also posted this photo which just struck me as a bit sad.
I think the rad fems are onto something when they talk about internalized misogyny and some women feeling confined or overly sexualized.
If this was the 70s she could have joined a feminist commune and frolicked in the woods with her tits out with the other dykes. But in current year this is the only option since actual women only spaces are troonphobic.
