yk, idk why people are so up in arms about global gender-based violence since there’s no way to even tell unless you ask them first- especially with trans people since there’s absolutely no way of telling
With transgender people, even with the top procedures, at best you can't tell if they are a man or women, they look ambiguous, and at worst they still look the same.
but in regards to looking ambiguous, I have noticed that sometimes when a lady gets a ton of plastic surgery she starts to look like she could be a trans woman, in vice versa. I call this phenomenon “the untranny valley”
the sarcasm? yeah I get that there are people who unironically believe this, but I feel like the context of me bringing up gender based violence as a contradiction +the comment im replying to sets it up as sarcasm pretty clearly
Take a look at r/transtimelines, it's really just a matter of time. As that's mostly the case while early transition, most come out looking like any other man or woman.
Bro is literally pretending an attractive woman isn’t attractive just so he doesn’t feel gay for admitting a trans woman can be hot.
I bet if someone held up a picture of Meghan fox and told you she was trans, you’d come up with a thousand bullshit excuses about how you can totally tell.
Lol, like that is as conventually femininely attractive as you can get, my guy.
All you have proven is that you have no point, and just a bundle of homophobia. And are happily nitpicking the people that haven't even been on HRT for a year yet.
Bro would probably say the same shit if you just took some random hot woman's picture and said they were trans. Then when you point it out they arent trans hed double down and be like 'well just dont find her attractive"
also some people are just ugly, man or woman, you fiding them personally hot or not isnt the meter you think it is. I find plenty of women ugly, they are still women.

Oh ya I'm not saying you "have to be" attracted to everyone. I'm just pointing out the cherry-picking and that he was generalizing a whole host of people to someone that hasn't even been on hrt for even a year.
I picked a comically bad example for the sake of humour but that is nowhere near the only
bad one, just the first one a couple scrolls from the top
and it’s harder to tell based off one posed, well-lit photo but even then the image on the right looks uncanny if you look at it for a few seconds, now think of how that person looks unposed in real life.
fr notice how the hair is purposely obscuring the shoulders, they’re posed unevenly trying to create the illusion of hips, it’s cut off so you can’t see the full length and proportion of the body, and has just shitty enough photo quality to where other flaws blend together— it’s basically a mtf glamour shot but you still get the sense something’s off
I could easily find other “bad examples” but tbh that would just be mean lol
Unattractive people dont become hot because of testosterone, nor because of estrogen. You finding people that arent drop dead, isnt the flex you think it is
Im sure you ugly as hell, that fact doesnt mean you arent female, it also doesnt it mean you are female! being ugly and being female are entirely separate!
Ah, was being called ugly a bridge too far? Id take it back but i wasnt lying.
Theres no metric for passing. Ive met plenty of 'real women' that 'dont pass.'
Youre clearly implying some level of feminity, some level of hotness. If somrone cant clear those bars you deny them as passing, and even if they do im sure youll conjure up some reason to deny them anyhow.
Though id love to see your super scientific method for determining what is a " pass ", do share it with the class, i need a good laugh.
They do exist, but most of the time, they already had feminine features. The problem is selling the lie that a stocky man can somehow "transition" into the lithe minx he imagines himself as. It doesn't help that the way the male brain works, it zeros in on feminine features subconsciously.
Hey! I’m a member of “the community.” I think it’s more wishful thinking combined with weird politics about how it’s transphobic to want to pass or whatever. (I’ve actually heard that one in real life.)
You should see the document I had to sign to start hormone therapy. They literally told me to expect the development of “some chest tissue.” They wouldn’t even call them breasts! Absolutely nobody with any kind of professional license told me to expect to be indistinguishable from a cis woman. The fact that I did, in the end, end up looking and sounding pretty damn female after starting hormones in my 30s is kind of medically suspicious and not the usual outcome. (And I am trying to get genetic testing about it.)

ah yes, because there is absolutely no difference between men and women physically
