They are gay men. They want other gay men. They want penis. Dick. Schlong. Shaft. Cock and balls. The main attraction. Yes, handys and blowjobs are fun, but it's like ordering an ice-cream sundae and receiving a bowl of whipped cream with a cherry. Where's the ice-cream? Where's the star of the show???
Here's the thing, though: let's assume the best case scenario for pooners. Let's say that for a lot of gay men, other characteristics can be so attractive that they make up for the lack of penis. Doesn't matter that this is not true; let's assume it is.
Even then, they still wouldn't want to date FtMs because FtMs are below average in other characteristics as well. "Oh, I see you don't have a cock and balls, but your obese physique, your 4'10" inch stature, and neurotic personality totally make up for it. I can overlook this one missing thing because I've always wanted to date someone who doesn't wash, cries constantly, and reads weird fanfiction all day instead of getting a job."
it's not really that i feel un-attractive or anything like that. i have a loving boyfriend and when i used to look for it, there was no shortage of attention.
but one thing i kinda miss about being (seen as) a girl is when guys would act all shy and awkward around me. i hated feeling objectified and seen as a girl, and i hated always feeling sexualized, but now it feels like society has placed me firmly on the other end of the spectrum. which sucks in a different way.
there is almost no media out there showing trans men in loving sexual or romantic relationships, and when there is, it's usually saccharine and cutesy. i don't really need to see myself in media to feel validated, but it would be nice. i guess i prefer this to being objectified, but i also feel sick of society seeing people like me as a wholesome smol bean. i'm a grown man... i don't want to be objectified but sometimes i feel like i would prefer it to this. like there's something that kinda sucks about being considered sexy by society until you finally feel comfortable in your body and then the world suddenly starts sleeping on you. oh so y'all only liked me when i wasn't happy in my body?
This is what people mean when they say pooners have the most feminine writing style imaginable.
Look at all that hedging language (mostly, kinda, usually, it feels like), quasi-apologizing and attempts to accommodate the reader's needs and feelings (I don't want to complain that much, it's just...). Referring to men as "guys." Using all-lower case is more often a too-online-female thing as well, I think as a holdover from tumblr posts.
