When Janice Raymond argued that troons actively reenforce gendered stereotypes maybe she had a point

    In my opinion, they constitute some degree of reality. Although it’s annoying when cis people use it as an excuse, I have seen some cases of male/female socialization on trans people. Like, they do some things so mind boggling that can only be explained because of their past, and their cis equivalents would have never even thought of doing.

    Also, to me soul passing is real. Not as in “do you conform to X gender’s stereotypes” but rather…I’m so comfortable in my desired sex that all my thoughts, feelings, and presence come out of that. To the point where if I dressed up as a guy, I would think “I’m a girl that cosplays as a boy”. Like the trans sex has gone so deep that it became cis. To the point if I were to transition to a man, I’d think of myself as a trans man.

      I’m curious if you can provide an example

        Like, those trans women that transitioned at like 40 and they act like a stereotypical, offensive caricature of a woman, because that’s all they know. I’d say Dylan Mulvaney is a good example but she was younger and also she has issues in general…

        In the sub, someone posted about a trans man who had drawn an activist message on his chest and he was very preachy and loud. I don’t know, I just thought…I’ve seen no cis man ever do this

        Despite everything, please don’t take me for someone who uses fem/malebrained in my day to day life, just in 4chan spaces for the laughs
