Young men should consider alternative options if failure looms

I assume this is a troll post but I'll respond seriously. Being trans isn't a choice in this vast majority of cases and "becoming a woman" for those men would be a false identity and cause them dysphoria since they aren't real transwomen.

Going gay would accomplish the same thing while not requiring prescriptions, surgeries, new wardrobes, or buying make up. Already, the advice is bad. I live in SF and I can tell you that trans lesbians don't have it easy. It would be much worse in most of the country. This is a troll post.

It's easier to passport bro than it is to do that, without the need of becoming someone who one actually is not.

This is incredibly dystopian, and does not reflect well on transgenderism.

AlvaroXZ999 · 2026-05-03T01:48:15+00:00

What worries me most is that I literally think I've seen a couple of people do that. On internet.

No different from conversion therapy

AdmirableHospital119 · 2026-05-03T01:40:16+00:00

Is this your personal advice?

FormalLonely7555 · 2026-05-03T02:18:03+00:00

Instead of all that…. Just get an escort.

Proudvow · 2026-05-03T02:44:15+00:00

It's disrespectful to the trans community and any potential partners to pretend to be trans when one is cis.

MarioWilson122 · 2026-05-03T04:15:48+00:00

The idea that gender transition is a tactical fix for dating struggles is a total failure of logic. It treats a fundamental medical and identity shift like a software patch for a social problem. It is a shallow solution that ignores the high cost and reality of the process.

Transitioning is a permanent and heavy path. Framing it as a way to get boobs or dates is reckless. It is like telling someone who can't afford a car to just build a rocket ship. The level of effort, health risk, and social friction involved is massive. Recommending this as a shortcut to bypass a difficult dating market is the definition of a bad trade.

The argument that you will suddenly get more dates is a fantasy. It assumes that switching categories automatically solves the value problem. In reality, you are just entering a different, often more complex, market with its own set of hurdles. If a man is struggling with social skills or attraction, changing his gender doesn't delete those issues. It just moves them into a new context.

The claim that this brings "euphoria" while others "seethe" is pure emotional bait. It uses a fake victory to sell a massive lifestyle change. Adulthood is about rational risk assessment and ownership of your path. Trying to escape the difficulties of being a man by becoming a woman is not a strategy. It is a cope that ignores the weight of the decision.

Take estrogen. Become a woman. Transmax. And then ya’ll can either date each other as man and woman or T4T. You don’t have to rely on someone else for boobs, you grow your own.

Learn how to do makeup, dress nice and feel the euphoria. More importantly, you’ll be getting dates while your transphobic brethren stay in the shadow, seething, wishing for release but it is something they cannot have… or it is something they can, it is up to you, queen.

Women unironically say things like this and then act like men are bad for wanting to bring back the patriarchy Lmao

So treating men like this isn't bad, but when men repay with the same coin, it is?

Transmax

While some people are capable of doing so, plenty of Trans-maxxers go on to develop actual dysphoria from it and have to De-transition.

And then ya’ll can either date each other as man and woman or T4T.

Most Inkcels who Trans-max are attracted only to Cis-women, so they’d have to navigate the much smaller Lesbian dating pool, and then the smaller percent who’d date a Trans-woman, the smaller percent who’d date a Trans-woman who doesn’t actually want to socially transition, and the small percent of LGBT at late-20s who are Monogamous.

This will just place far more limitations on their existing options, for little gain.

More importantly, you’ll be getting dates while your transphobic brethren stay in the shadow, seething, wishing for release but it is something they cannot have

Statistically right-wing traditional men are marrying and having children the most.

We need to be honest that left-wing Cis-gender Heterosexual men are more likely to be struggling than Transphobes.

While the way you’ve phrased the post does come across as trolly, it’s still just bad advice in general for Inkcels, even Bisexual ones because it’s just limiting their options more.

This is coming from someone who would transition to a mix of male and female if it were scientifically possible.

Here's a better idea, how about we don't?

Super curios, OP.. in an ideal world would you rather present masculine and have a cis feminine girlfriend? but because that didn't pan out, you chose "option B"?

Not really judging, there's plenty of situations in my life where I've chose option B and made it work, but not sure how viable this kind of "option B" is for the majority of guys.

>feel the euphoria

Being complimented for having nice arms and a nice butt is a pretty heady feeling. Maybe not euphoric, but I’d take it every day of the week over the routine my wife undertakes daily. Not to mention the cost.
Coincidentally I just watched Freya India on The Modern Wisdom Podcast talking about the crisis of young women. How the commodification of women has become a domain for corporations. Very interesting stuff.

SentinelATL · 2026-05-03T01:45:09+00:00

Trans max? Can you explain?

Arrowdodgingace · 2026-05-03T02:45:52+00:00

I thought people were born trans. Why do y’all keep going back and forth on your own talking points whenever it suits you? All you’re doing is giving LGBT a bad name and painting them as crazy.

Awkward_Novel9021 · 2026-05-03T03:59:40+00:00

no one "becomes" a woman. People can immitate shallow social dressings, put on clothes, do makeup, people can do expensive surgerys, or even take estrogen and bitch tits i guess?

ArtisticLime9769 · 2026-05-03T10:03:02+00:00

Femboymaxxing, transmaxxing? We finally reached good debates on purplepilldebate.

PattayaVagabond · 2026-05-03T15:36:59+00:00

yeah that doesn't work that well when you're 6'2 have a full beard and chest hair, 2 to 1 shoulder to waist ratio, and a brow ridge.

Sidian · 2026-05-03T03:21:05+00:00

Based tbh. I've said this myself and I would genuinely consider it if I thought I could pass. Here's my favourite example I took from reddit. Look at the guy's comments before he did it, and after. What an insane difference in quality of life. Being a man like he was is pure suffering. But obviously it's risky and won't work this well for most.

AlmondMilkMaybe · 2026-05-03T00:51:50+00:00

Interesting that your flair says "trans woman" because, unless this is sarcasm, it suggests that being trans is a permanent costume that desperate men take on for convenience and sexual self-interest.
