Why do AFABs draw so differently from AMABs?

I'm a popular stealth artist on social media and i've noticed that AFABs draw pretty differently from AMABs, and usually have a softer, more tumblrish artstyle while AMABs have the exact opposite. Is this a biological or social phenomenon because even after hrt, drawing habits seem to remain the same.

its a social phenomenon i think. ftms still have some femininity in them deep down due to it being forced on them for years and vice versa with mtfs. i also notice this in a lot of trans artist's works

Social contagion between theyfabs.

I remember ye olden times before Tumblr, and it's 100% social. The unholy union between Tumblr and animals culture created that hideous style that just won't fucking die.

Depends, tumblrite trans women also retain this soft "afab" style often from what i've noticed, even if they left tumblr a long time ago. It's just tumblr
+ a lot of mtfs learned their artstyles through comic books which makes their art different from somebody who learned from detached artworks from other people idk how to explain it

You can say women and men. Retard.

Pussy style for wet pussies

holy fuck this is ugly. I'm so glad anime style is a million times more popular than this horror show

It's probably a combination of neurology and socialization, like how women have neater hand writing because they develop fine motor skills at a different age - but then are also expected to have nicer handwriting socially. The softer rounder style mirrors how female bodies are softer and rounder.

It's the fault of the school system

Well, no
because men can become transwomen
women can become transmen

it's useful to have something to cleave through the trans and non-trans people alike

Are we seriously arguing why the people who used the same tutorials to study then go on to create similar art?

I'm so tried of these threads.
Amabs always act like we're from other planet.

You aren't from another planet, you just created a culture that creates ugly art (tumbr).

Society was made for you
ironically, its builders are only allowed access if they're going to a job site

Aside from that, AMaBs basically are the ones from another planet, looking in from an outside world

I never used Tumblr
Bruh...

please take your meds

Why do AFABs draw so differently from AMABs?

Most women lack true creativity, even if talented at the fundamentals of art. AFABs have a hivemind mentality so with any form of artistic expression they just copy what gets the most attention. If you're a men, being unique is the best way to get attention for art or otherwise

I can no longer tell which posts were meant as ironic.
You're not an artist, are you? That's a very delusional way of looking at things. It has nothing in common with how art works in the year of our lord 2k25, not to mention the incelism.

a culture that creates ugly art

On average this tends to be cis men

inb4 some old famous cis m artist

By today's millenial-zoomer standards

i'm talking about tumblr and yes the distinctive styles that come out of tumblr are bad.

i thought u were from college

Why

Girls go to college to get more knowledge
Boys go to Jupiter to become stupider

I'm not in college

Peers inspire peers, and peers often consume the same media and engage in the same discussions too. Assuming most people dont troon or poon until mid to late teens, their social circles will likely have been heavily influenced by their sex due to societal expectations during their formative years, which in turn will influence their views on, and understanding of, art.
Its really not rocket science. Same reason you see differences in artists from different websites or countries: different cultural input produces different cultural output.

I think it depends on what you’re trying to achieve stylistically ya know, like I usually draw really soft and rounded very super deformed/chibi but I’m currently working on an erotic horror shrek one page

I've thought about this topic a lot and I think it must be biological.
However, not all AFABs have it. The cis bi woman who made Hasbin Hotel has a very "amab" art style with vibrant colors and thick lines/object separation.

It seems to not be related to culture or artistic merit. There are Japanese lesbian examples from the 80s of this same artstyle, with it's lack of colors and fuzzy object separation. There's also earlier cartoons like Pepper Ann from the 90s with the same style, also aimed at these sorts of AFABs.
The "muted colors" aspect is what gets me the most. While differences in visual processing might explain it, we know AFABs SHOULD have better color vision than AMABs with many of them even being theorized to be tetra chromats like birds. If this were the case, what looks like bland colors to us may be just colors we can't see. The other theory on the colors is that 10% of men are red-green colorblind and perhaps pooners are male-brained in this way.
As for object separation that's pretty well studied/foids can't seaparate objects as clearly.

i think joel g is going to troon out one day.
i am assuming this purely because of his artstyle but i am very confident in it.

truthnuke

Men and women

The "muted colors" aspect is what gets me the most

Can some pooners answer this? Does the OP pic "look muted" to you? Does the Hasbin pic look colorful to you? Do you see the difference in colors? How would you describeit?

It's a social thing.
I can't draw anything more than a stick figure

hazbin hotel hurts my eyes
I also have severe photosensitivity and i am sitting in a nearly pitch dark room right now so it might be that too so idk

Why are women children in adult bodies while men are all depressed trying to cope with it

Something something brainsize.
Daily reminder: you are part of "society". You change, society changes.
The biological underpinnings of society are clear as day. There is nothing inherently societal.

hazbin hotel hurts my eyes

Like how? And the op pic doesn't?
Interesting.

Also vivziepop the hazbin creator despises pooners so there might be a difference in their core life philosophy that is prone to clashing

the op pic also does, but less
I technically don't like insanely muted colours (unless in specific situations, i like colors saturated, but not #ff0000 saturated) but when I feel like shit i usually prefer seeing only grey, undersaturated yellow or black

Op pic looks colorful but with some kind of shitty green-brown filter on top. Hazbin is very saturated and in your face, looks like a regular modern cartoon to me.

shitty green-brown filter on top

Intriguing. Perhaps something extra then.

Hazbin is very saturated and in your face

So Hazbin is still saturated hmm. That said to my (mtf) eyes it doesn't look super saturated. Rather it looks fairly "normal" and the OP looks super muted.

but when I feel like shit i usually prefer seeing only grey, undersaturated yellow or black

Intriguing. So it's more like a fear of the other colors/ photosensitivity to other colors rather than not being able to literally see or appreciate the other colors.

its about pain, your art forms around pain
all good artists have experienced true pain
afabs normally cant experience that kind of pain, bpd is probably the closest theyll yet, maybe schizophrenia

What is shocking to me is that all trans are terrible, terrible artists to the point from a whole universe of them I can only think of 2 who are actually good, and both are Asian.

Rather it looks fairly "normal" and the OP looks super muted.

the suit is like 255,0,0 its pretty saturated
i think afabs probably like less saturated colors because they feel mellow, almost rounded, calm, etc
not because they see it as super bright

not because they see it as super bright

How does that square with saying it literally hurts to look at colors besides gray/black?

some ppl are just weird

Hazbin red

Couldn't even watch the show because it was perpetually red

i am a "severe" autist (the only reason i didn't get a full on retard autism diagnosis is my iq not being in retard ranges) so i am not an average case and shouldn't be used for making generalizations

You might be an average pooner tho, or pooner artist anyways. Lots of foid style autism there

Can you not distinguish the red from the other colors? Interesting some people can handle it and others can't.

hazbin hotel is like if they put a blue light filter on the background of an entire show

men are from mars and women are from venus. i literally learned this shit in kindergarten, stupid foid

Hmm...
Maybe boys like blue and girls like pink for a reason?

are you dense

most pooners/women don't have autism, they have bpd and social anxiety misdiagnosed as autism

Everyone can distinguish the colors, but a lot of it is just shades of red. It's hard to really answer your question...

How would you describe the OP pic?
Shades of something too or distinct colors?

BPD actually has a more 50/50 split. Histrionic might be the one you're looking for. However I've never met a histrionic ftm, only histrionic cis women.

i dated a poonah who was diagnosed HPD and he hated the diagonsis so much he self-diagnosed BPD instead lol

OP pic is distinct colors with an overlay and maybe a hue layer. Helluva Hotel is just mostly red save for the main character and the ones in the background, or windows

The Sonic artstyle and color scheme seems to appeal to MTFs
Do pooners like Sonic?

sonicc.png - 476x727, 368.4K

Intriguing, I'd describe Hazbin as distinct colors and OP pic as shades of pinkish brown

still the autism pooner, I like sonic but more the retro versions, 3d versions make me chimp out from the saturation

What distinct colors are you seeing? Maroon, burgundy, and crimson?

Maybe I'm just focusing more on the distinct objects and seeing them as different colors so that I don't mind that the background is mostly red.
The windows are red/purple/bright yellow
The gate is grey
The people are all colored different colors. Orange/grey. The trees are brown. The clothing is all very distinct. Etc.,
The buildings further away are a shade of red but very dark to the point it's pretty much black.
There's also like this clear object separation where things blend much more in the OP. sort of fading into eachother

The windows are red/purple/bright yellow

The gate is grey

The buildings further away are a shade of red but very dark to the point it's pretty much black.

Oh okay now I see why I'm so confused. Yes everyone can see that. Our problem is explaining what we're seeing. Obviously we can all see the windows and the big characters, but I'm not compelled to say that because.... It's obvious against that various-shades-of-red background.

Still the overall feel is important. That image "feels" red to you and the op "feels" brown-pink to me

”its about pain”

picrel is naruto fanart

are you literally 12?

If theyfabs don't like saturated colors then why do they dye their hair like that?

To immediately attract attention, even if visually, theyfabs entire lives are centered about attention exclusively

Is my art okay

is mine okay, it’s an eraser

Is nice

at heart yah, im very chuuni

anyone saying its a biological phenomenon is being tarded its very obviously social

if you grew up on tumblr you will develop a tumblr art style, the rest is whether or not you are raised to like soft round things

please look at more art

IMG_6489.jpg - 1290x1029, 1.33M

If you like tumblr artstyle you will spend time on tumblr and grow up there. If you don't you will end up on Anon Babble or somewhere else.
It's biological. Foids LIKE tumblr art and that's why they end up there

You're getting it wrong
Amabs are from earth
Afabs are from other universe, clearly.

i only like red and black characters
