Both MTFs and FTMS need to understand that people are attracted to physical bodies based on their sexuality, not clothing and expressions of femininity and masculinity. Trannies really believe that if they put on feminine clothing and some lippy, they're going to instantly woo the lesbians and straight men.
As it turns out for many of our MTF cohorts however, many gay men are attracted to gender non-conforming, effeminate guys and they mistake them for men. You can really tell that gay men chasing after them really bruises their fragile egos because it means everybody, even gay men who they demand bend over for them, sees them as men.
Gay men can be misogynistic, but troons take that misogyny up a notch by a 100 times.
This stupid, false rhetoric that is repeated non-stop in tranny circles. Marsha P. Johnson was not a tranny. He never even participated in the Stonewall riots.
"a significant amount of bio-essentialist transphobia lately from cis lesbians directed at trans women"
Of course, whenever troons shit on gay men they find an opportunity to take aim at lesbians. How DARE those bigoted lesbos for refusing to fuck transwomen (males)!
I imagine transbians fume at the thought of a lesbian finding a masculine, butch woman attractive.
"Why do those fucking transphobic cis lesbian bitches find those ugly bulldykes attractive?! I'm more of a woman than they are!"
