They desperately have to believe that because they found out the hard way that most ugly women don't become hot and sexy except with very expensive and extensive plastic surgery. For an average man it's nigh hopeless to even pass, let alone become the hot woman they think they will ''become''. Without clinging to the weaponized mediocrity of being raised male (wherein all white men believe they are brilliant geniuses) they are nothing and they know it.

There’s a story on r/detrans right now about how the guy is disappointed that he isn’t a hot woman now who is married to a cis man. He finally realized that the trans community fed him a load of shit. He now knows that he can’t change all of his male features and anyone who meets him can feel that something is “off” in him. He says cis guys will only have sex with him and won’t consider him as a partner. And on the one hand you feel bad because the trans cult reeled him in but on the other hand you just sit there and think why are all you men so fucking stupid as to think that you’ll get SRS and then be this hot woman that every man wants to be with?!? These men are delusional!

Yeah I'm in equal measures sad for him and the story he was told, but the people who told it were delusional men who believe that they can attain ''female privilege'' at all. I hope that he uses his pain to warn others.

Reminds me of the 50something guy on the TLC trans show who was shocked he didn't look like a beautiful teenage girl once he was dolled up. He really thought he could morph into the image in his head. It's just bizarre that they think their jaw line, brow ridge, hairline, wrinkles, broad shoulders, etc. are going to magically transform with a few hormone shots and a mascara wand.

'weaponized mediocrity of being raised male' is so on point.

Talk like that is all they have. They need to utter that bs so they can validate themselves and their mistakes (getting hrt and maybe srs). They know they were lied to but they don’t know how to revert the process or are to caught up in cult to do so. Stating the bs from the echo chambers. It’s a sign that they know they are lesser and losing. Typical male behavior. If ya can’t join them, beat them.

It's funny they believe they're better women because of their male energies but they don't bang on about being better men for having female energies.

It's almost like they're just... gasp ...men who think they're better than women? Male chauvinism? Surely not!

There's a lot of classic narcissism. Either they're better than women, or they know better than women, or they suffer more than women have ever suffered. The end result is the same. It's all about ME, ME, ME and women better sit down and shut up.

^ My personal TIM experience is with an adult sib who fully transitioned and yes, all of that. Took me years and several therapists to see the pure narcissism beneath the facade. Pre-trans: all about them. Post-trans: all about them.

Yeah, it’s just funny how they have to use such drivel to justify themselves
