Disappointed by this thread...even if there are fetishists and AGPs who are GNC, why would being a "masculine man" be so much better? And who defines what a "GNC trait" is?

I get it, though. While I intellectually support men breaking gender stereotypes, I am starting to have a negative, visceral reaction when I see GNC males because I now associate them with TRAs and the erasure of women. I used to love seeing GNC men, but now it turns me off because I assume such men are misogynistic TRAs.

Also, not for nothing, the likely straight GNC men and boys I see today look kind of conformist and scrubby, not subversive and fabulous like the gay GNC men I used to see back in the day.

I understand, I mistakenly thought OP meant GNC in multiple ways, but it turns out they're mainly just talking about fetishy crossdressing.
