So despite what the number of posts on this board would try to indicate, there are more FTM than MTF trans people (based on this study's results.) Is the disproportionate amount of MTF on this board a result of "betas use 4chan more than women" thing?

Meaning that of both types of trans people your assigned at birth gender is the main influencer of how likely you are to use 4chan.

Discuss!

Yeah, it's the same reason there are more mtfs everywhere on the internet except tumblr. Birth gender socialization.
>>
>>8517168
Ding Ding Ding.

>Birth gender socialization.
Yeah this is interesteing. I had always seen the stats that trans people only make up 1-2% of the global population. But if it's even 5% of girls and 2% of boys together that should be more than 2 % total right?
>>
>>8517193
It depends on their definition of "gender identity issues". Girls' numbers might be higher because gender nonconformity is more allowable (or even encouraged) in girls.
>>
>>8517163
I'm not sure what is being tracked here. "Express their gender differently (...) from gender assigned at birth" is pretty vague. And once again, "acting like the other gender" is much more accepted for girls than it is for boys, so that might also influence the results.
>>
>>8517163
>"betas use 4chan more than women" thing?
I mean, even as an MtF, yeah. Basically if you're not very cool loner "guy" in 21st century you're extremely likely to spend too much time online (because you don't have anywhere or anyone to hang out with IRL) and online you're extremely likely to gravitate towards sites like 4chan that cater to weird people that are somewhat outside the norm.

On the other hand if you've been socialized as female in modern society you're massively likely to be on tumblr because sometimes stereotypes are completely true. So it's no secret that FtMs are overwhelmingly present on tumblr and MtFs on 4chan.

>Girls' numbers might be higher because gender nonconformity is more allowable (or even encouraged) in girls.
Yeah, this is absolutely the case. There was an article on New York Times about gender non conforming boys and it said how a boy would be taken to a psychologist for something as minor as "I like the color pink" or "I want a Barbie for Christmas" while a girl would literally have to go as far as to say "I want to cut off my breasts" for her to get sent to a shrink.

Gender transgressions are completely allowed in girls in western society, in fact most girls nowadays are somewhere around the middle.

If you imagine gender expression as a scale from -100 (most masculine) to 0 (neutral) to +100 (most feminine) most girls would be around 0 while most boys would be stuck in that box of masculinity from -100 to -90.
>>
>>8517222
for real, one of the best things about transitioning for me was being able to express myself however. I get super femme pretty rarely these days and it's totally ok. If femininity was anything like masculinity I'd have to wear a skirt and a full face of makeup every day.

Stop the presses!

>all trans are attention whores

kys
>>
>>8517247
Some girls still do this. I don't know where the idea that all women are ok with gender nonconforming women comes from. I know women whose mothers refused to let them leave the house without makeup once they hit puberty. These women aren't even 30.

>>8517163
Girls feel dysphoria because of misogyny. Boys don't want to give it up to be female.
>>
>>8517443
It's not that most are gender non-conforming, it's that society is much less critical about it in general towards females.
>>
>>8517460
This is very true. Guys should absolutely be allowed to be more feminine without having to be trans in order to be accepted when wearing what they want to wear or acting how they want to act.
>>
Females choose to be GNC or to have a non-cis identity if they want to try it.

Males are GNC or non-cis only as a last resort after trying to fit in as males.
>>
>>8517163

In a culture laden with misogynistic stereotypes and oppressive expectations of women more and more females don't want to identify as "girls" because of what they think it means they have to act like. Girls don't want to be "feminine" - delicate, small, weak, subservient.

However autogynephilia (usually related to porn addiction) mixed with feeling inadequate as a "masculine" male (tough, strong, unemotional, dominant) influences some males into fetishizing femininity.

Now ask yourself what the men who post on 4chan are like:

>narcissistic
>porn addicted
>beta

But I'm not addicted to porn. And even when I do fap I never fap to "normal" porn but always to fetish/BDSM stuff.

those figures are for children and teens http://www.cppah.com/article/S1538-5442(09)00016-9/fulltext

otherwise, mtf are way more common https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transsexual#Prevalence

the average age of mtfs when they starting transitioning is like 40+ because of all the married agps, so this isnt that suprising. young mtfs are pretty rare
>>
>>8517163
>12% of women are transsexual

Tell me that you aren't stupid enough to believe this.
>>
>>8517652
Women are much more unisex in their appearance and behavior nowadays than before. You could also see it as "12% of women are at an extreme masculine range of the spectrum".
>>
>>8517163
>percentages >1%
This fucking study counts boys playing with dolls and girls playing with trucks as "gender nonconforming" doesn't it?
>>
>>8517667
That's still totally unbelievable.

If 12% of all women were trannies we would have a massive decline in the birthrate.

Obviously that's not the case.
>>
>>8517739
>If 12% of all women were trannies we would have a massive decline in the birthrate.
Apparently a lot of FtMs don't object to becoming pregnant and giving birth.

Personally that sounds insane to me but try telling them that and you'll get "bigot" or similar thrown at you.
>>
>>8517775
that sounds fucking retarded.
why would anyone be ftm if they still want to get pregnant
>>
>>8517775
>>8517784
Mtfs who are willing to get someone pregnant are seen as men.
Hell, I won't even willingly stick my dick in anyone, male or female, because of how it's seen by others, didn't save sperm because I couldnt stand the thought of being a "father" or my kid deciding they are mad at me one day and deciding, "youre my dad because you used your sperm to create me and there's nothing you can do about it"
>>
>>8517975
And while we/some people look at pregnant ftms as weirdos, there's a large portion of people who will fight tooth and nail to defend a ftm's right to use their stock equipment to create a child. Something about the sacred beauty of motherhood(parenthood in ftms' case)
>>

Is this the whole transtrender thing or are you counting tomboys and junk?

There are no girls on 4chan.

While in European countries like Sweden and Germany MTFs are refused transition if they have banked sperm.
>>
>>8517163
trenders or "unsure" maybe, as far as real transgenders who go through with it there've been generally more m2f than f2m through the years and across many countries and cultures
>>
>>8517163
Overwhelmingly it's beta men who actually transition because getting off the bottom of the male social hierarchy and becoming women makes them more valued by society.

>>8517216
>FtTs and MtTs naturally behave like their natal gender even after transition
Shocking
>>8517247
>MtT saying he doesn't even feel feminine, he just transitioned because he hates wearing a suit and tie
Shocking again

source? i live in germany and haven't heard about this.

>>8517247
How can you not want to wear a skirt every day though, they are just so comfy
>>
>>8518859
Can you blame them?
>>
>>8517163
'identify or express their gender differently'
That's so insanely broad, I don't trust these numbers without a source. Googled it but it's behind a paywall.
