One thing that I learned from reading r/GenderCritical before Reddit banned it, was that TERFs don't want transwomen in women-only spaces because transwomen come across as psychologically male. The meaning of "psychologically male" was only partly spelled out, but seemed to be a mixture of dominance, entitlement, combativeness, and competitiveness. Or maybe it was about not "getting" the consensus seeking and hug-boxing that women want in a women-only space.

Being a bit slow, it has taken me a year to come up with the obvious follow up question. What happens when a straight man dates a transwomen? Do they find the psychology is "off"; the interaction feels man-to-man not man-to-women, and very off-putting on a date?

Men usually date the hsts, gay men dressed as women, so they are often not as macho as the 90% of transwomen who are autogynephiliacs. However they still act like bitchy gay men rather than women most of the time. But then both partners in that type of relationship enjoy acting out heterosexuality and often the masculine partner is overly chivalrous and the feminine one more demure to play the part with works out for them.

The AGP more often do sex work as their go whole life is basically living for their fetish if they transition. They only sleep with men to affirm they are women, they will take a women who pretends to be a lesbian with them over that any time.

None of the men who sleep with transwomen are straight.

There's multiple gender critical subs on saidit just not on s/all
