Why do so many pooners want to be feminine men?
TERF spaces often make fun of FtMs for not wanting to be manly men and instead wanting to be like feminine bl uke boys.
They see this as a sign that FtMs are not men, just confused girls.
Life if you want to be a boy, then why are you so girly? Just stay a girl then. Cis men don't strive to be feminine as often as FtM men do.
I am one of those FtMs. I basically only want to be a boy if I can be a feminine, cute one. I would kms if I had to be a manly man.
Sometimes I invalidate myself as a 'fakeboy' because I fit that stereotype.
But like honestly, I think it makes sense that many FtMs want to be like that.
Most of us were abused by men, which can cause a fear or aversion for manliness.
We were also allowed to express the goated femininity, many of us would find it hard to leave that behind.
I think growing up as a female just made me develop better taste in men.
Cis men are raised to believe that being super manly and bottling up your emotions (will take them out on battered wife when home) is the way to go.
In comparison I think that being pretty and being a good person is what makes the ideal man.
So yeah that's why I think so many FtMs want to be feminine instead of more manly.
What do you guys think?
