She is just aware that she is straight but still wants to pretend to be a uwu uwu uwu super duper valid gay man because fetish reasons.

Being a straight woman is just too boring for her. She wants people to pity her.

Fujoshis in a nutshell essentially

She knows she is a straight woman, who enjoys the fantasy of herself being a man basically.

Not to mention that her childhood and school years was drastically different from actual gay men.

She never worried about being bullied for being gay nor she worried about being outed as gay. She was a straight girl being seen as very normal and accepted by everyone.

No fucking wonder she can't relate to other man.

my guess is that she was probably a straight tomboy girl, and got comments assuming she was a lesbian for her tomboyishness, which is where the bonkers comment about envisioning herself as a straight man or feeling pressured to be a straight man comes from. she probably also feels guilty about being attracted to guys as a tomboy because boys growing up only like the feminine girls and sometimes even bully the tomboys. so instead of going to therapy she's done all sorts of mental gymnastics to convince herself she's a gay man, but knows deep down she's just a straight girl, which is why she feels like not a real man. QED.

This is insane, and I do not say that jokingly.

I have to think exposure to gender ideology at a young age is really fucking these kids up. This person claims to idealize a life of being married to a woman and having kids, but they're also planning on a phalloplasty. It's like they're completely detached from reality.

Another poster in the thread calling themselves 'gay' because they're 'masculine attracted to masculinity'. So that's what that word means now, eh?

I think its creepy how a lot of trans forums have minors post selfies, but I'm dying to know what these people look like in real life.

I’m dying to know who setup and who is funding those trans forums.

Well we know that Aimee Challenor and his partner(s) are/were supermods of many of them. Wouldn't surprise me if many of the mods were of the same ilk. The lack of safeguarding and the open grooming on those forums is appalling.

I’m against regulating the internet, but I strongly back parents who monitor their children’s activities online and regulate their children’s access to electronic devices.

A lot of men, probably most of us, go through phases where we feel like we’re less of a man. It’s not just because we don’t feel like proper males, but also somethings we feel like we’re not mature enough to be proper adults, or like we're not human enough. In fact, part of the reason gay men have been treated by homophobic people as "lessor men" is because homophobes don’t see us as human beings. Instead, they see us as mindless, sex addicted animals who need to be tamed and castrated, or to be hunted down.

However, in this woman’s case, her insecurities stem from the fact that she’s not a man at all, because she’s not male. Yes, she’s a human being. And she’s also adult, at least physically she’s an adult, assuming she has reached the age of 18. But she’s still not a male. So even if she was attracted to women, she still would not be a man. And a part of her knows this.

I feel like maybe cis gay guys feel like this too, but I think for me, gender dysphoria on top of it makes it worse, because I already feel like less of a man due to dysphoria.

This describes the entirety of transgender cultural politics completely. Just change a few words and it becomes their Mad Libs game.

" I feel like maybe (minority or victimized group which I'm inserting myself into) feel like this too, but I think for me, gender dysphoria on top of it makes it worse, because I already feel (type of oppression or insecurity experienced by that group) due to dysphoria."

I missed anything even resembling a concrete example in that story. It's all I experience _ism as a __sexual just tossing big words around with no reality attached to them.

She isn't a man. And she isn't gay.

The only time actual gay men feel that being gay makes them less of a man is when homophobes tell them that being gay is wrong. It used to be mostly religious homophobes that did this, but of course there is now a disturbing trend for heterosexual women who identify as men to shame gay men for not finding them attractive. Same goes for heterosexual men who identify as women attempting to shame and coerce lesbians into having sex with them despite them being literally repulsive to sane lesbians.
