[Transgender Trope #1- Trans questioners and critics must not be informed on the topic.]

I'm sorry you see them so negatively. Let me see if I can explain my perspective on it – I hope you're willing to hear me out.

FTMs are not upset because they do not fit into the typical image of females.

[Transgender Trope #2. Trans people have no problem living outside of gender roles. It's sex they want to disguise, for no social reason whatsoever.] (Of course females don't want to fit into the typical image of females. The typical image of females is a sexist, sexualized stereotype and only males who objectify females and get off on the thought of inhabiting a female "object" would want to "fit into" that role.)

Or at least, not true FTMs.
