Because women, you know, are angels...

Oh yeah, I figured I should respond. That's not my view, in fact I believe there is far more female foolishness. And I seem to have avoided a nice chunk of it as well (well, for a person my age.)

I think being relatively (mentally) androgynous has benefits. Well, I think I'm mentally androgynous but I guess I'm not the best judge of me.

If I came across a room of women like that I would set my Blaster to rapid fire.

If it's worth anything, I'd be interested in reading it.

Seconded. It's always interesting to hear the opinions and observations of others, especially when they aren't a member of the group they are observing.

But I can understand why you don't. If you're right, then a whole lot of FTMs are bound to take your group observations personally (and respond accordingly) :laugh:

I honestly wouldn't have thought the cismale hating, lesbian community hang-arounders would make up a sizable chunk of the FTM population. I would have thought that it'd work like the thread topic backwards - there'd be an overwhelming number of FTM misogynists.

As for the thread topic - I think it exists on both sides to some extent, however I also think that the longer you've been mixing with your cisgendered counterparts, the less you tend to have unrealistic views. Though there is bound to always be a little positive bias there.

Yes I have had unrealistic views and expectations of genetic women and womanhood, it was going to stop me from transitioning.
When I was going through the acceptance stage I kept thinking that there was no way I would ever look feminine, that I would end up looking so much like a man in a dress. I am getting over that fear as I go along.
