My feminine side which does seem to be a bit more predominate is very non confrontational to the point of being pretty submissive. There are times though that I get very angry , violent anger which I sometimes struggle to keep in check. There have only been 2 times that I have lost control in my 45 years even then the first time I punched a guy in the jaw once and snapped out of it the second once the guy gave back the item he took from me I let go of his throat ( I had really only intended to grab his had to take the item back, I didn't even realize I had him by the throat until I let go ). My anger scares me a lot, it hasn't been an issue in my life but sometimes it is a struggle.
To the point of this post. When people start hrt do they find that their aggressive tendencies decrease.
For curiosity did any FTM members find their aggression increase

Not for me, no. And I also seem more sensitive to people's feelings in general on T. Or maybe it's just transition that has done that and it's not hormone related.
For the record, you don't sound like you have too much of an aggression problem if you've only lost it twice in 45 years. Especially since at least the second time it sounds like you were provoked.
Both times I was provoked but the second time all I remember was thinking "ok I'm just going to grab his hand and get my item back" I heard a squeak someone said in the back ground "did someone get kicked in the groin" I got my item back and I let go then I realized I had grabbed him by the throat.
I've managed my anger fairly well and it really isn't often that I do get anywhere close to that angry but it is a part of me that I want gone.I think that might be part of the reason why I am more submissive.
I had similar incidents, no memory of the fight until realizing people were trying to pull me off of them and I was choking them.
Not once since I started T however.
It did concern my therapist but not my endo.
