Not sure if there's any "official" studies or anything (because let's face it, these things are too "transphobic" to study) but I'm positive there is an overlap. /r/itsafetish, before it got deleted by Reddit's ban wave and before it was taken over by whiny femcels, also used to post numerous examples of this. Of course TRAs always called it "cherry picking" but when there were new posts each day of MTFs with a "feminization" humiliaton fetish... well it's hard to argue it's just a coincidence.

I also remember hearing that MTFs are more likely to have paraphilias. Possibly because being MTF is a paraphilia in itself, or that people with paraphilias tend to be... for a lack of a better term, "weirder." Like how furries tend to have an assortment of bizarre fetishes, despite the base idea of being a furry in itself not specifically sexual - but furries as a whole tend to be stereotyped as a sex thing simply because for some reason it attracts a ton of perverted men.

Gotcha... that's fascinating. Seems like there is a direct link between misogyny -> humiliation fetish, and misogyny -> trans identification ("being a woman is all about wearing makeup!"), and humiliation fetish -> trans AGP (paraphilias tending to cluster together). I have seen a couple studies demonstrating the paraphilia cluster phenomenon. Maybe I'll make a post about it, it is a weird subject but waaayyy relevant to dropping the T from LGB. Thanks for explaining!
