This is real, especially when one considers the social capital that one can utilize pre-transition for afab people if they are desiring to change themselves physically. It has economic components and racial components in my opinion. It isn't just "tumblr stuff", and there were always posts like this on twitter, you all just didn't see them. Social phenomena exist even if you aren't looking directly at them 🙄

Comments on this post and downvotes show why we need this community even more. We have to educate on positive elements of masculine identity and how it can be manifested.
