the left is insane, but MTFs are not the left. Indeed they trend toward the conservative. if you want to see gender madness, political transitions, transitions for "fashion", look to the teen FTMs. MTFs have no immediate peer gratification to enjoy for their transition, even from the left -- trust me. Any notion that we are well-included anywhere in culture is a projected falsehood. It is a very isolating category. FTM is different -- the culture of slashing one's privilege, their inborn feminine beauty, across its face in a group of clapping peers to spite others is not one those assigned male at birth are lucky enough to participate in. There is nobody cheering when you go female, at least not until you reach beauty typically years later. And even that experience of privilege will be tempered by the rage and jealousy of every woman around you, and leave you in a new isolation.
