I agree with the whole "more interested in being validated as a woman than finding a partner with mutual attraction" thing. It's as if their whole life their main objective is to be seen as women. They don't care about women, just for passing as one. Like, they will literally take anything that is "female" like jobs, titles, positions, you name it. If all they want is validation, all they will do is change the world so that they can accomplish that goal. I hate this world so much...

This pursuit of validation as "women" can be so strong that it leads some autogynephiles, who are actually straight men, to seek validation through having sex with men.

According to a reddit sub called r/Blanchardianism, this is called "meta-attraction".
