What do you think of transmaxxing?

SweelFor- · 2023-11-05T10:57:04+00:00

Probably the most insane and delusional of all the black pill "solutions"

FellasImSorry · 2023-11-05T11:28:50+00:00

The idea is like “I should become a woman because women have it so easy?” Not “I am a woman and now I’m going to live as a woman?”

Because the first option is the dumbest shit imaginable and the perfect illustration of the utter stupidity of red pill dimwits.

As if being a woman is an advantage in society. I mean look around you.

On the other hand, if any idiot actually tries this, maybe they’ll be forced into acknowledging the glaring, obvious, and totally unfair disadvantages women face.

xvszero · 2023-11-05T16:01:37+00:00

I doubt much of anyone actually does this and it makes no sense anyway. Being trans is one of the hardest possible positions in life. And even if you completely pass then you still learn fast how much harassment and abuse women get just for existing.

NegativeKarmaVegan · 2023-11-05T16:30:27+00:00

Yeah, trans women are notorious for all the privileges they have in our society, right?

I've looked through some of their posts and to me it looks like at least 90% fantasy, whether that's guys with a feminisation kink or guys who have overdosed on the black pill looking for the naloxone of hope. Then there are some deeply repressed trans people who have spent too much time on 4chan.

As someone who has travelled in the other direction, it would be an incredibly dumb thing to do. The red and black pill types severely overestimate how easy it is living as a woman. The freebies are not frequent and you learn real quick not to accept them because they come with strings attached. The attention often comes in the form of incoherent shit yelled from moving cars. The bullshit easy jobs that they think women do aren't actually as universal, easy, or well paid as they think.

And that's before you factor in effectively making yourself ftm in an mtf body. You will still be you on estrogen, and if you are a cis guy that will probably make you tired and depressed. You'll have a weird reverse phantom limb sensation where you have tits attached to you but they don't feel like yours they're just weird growths and you'll look in the mirror and everything looks wrong and....look it's just a bad time. And the more you do to pass the worse you'll feel, but if you don't pass it's all for nothing.

And then there's the social blowback. There are a lot of people out there who do not like trans women and wish them harm. I don't think I need to explain the many ways in which you could be royally fucked over for transitioning. And you'll be dealing with it without the payoff of feeling okay in your body and without the support of people who are going through the same thing (trans women will understand the struggles of being accepted as a woman later in life, trans guys would understand the body horror of going through an estrogen puberty as a guy, but neither group is likely to react well if they realise that you are doing this to yourself on purpose)

I think its wildly delusional and only begins to "make sense" if viewed through the lens of someone so myopically black-pilled that they cannot fathom the repercussions of that choice. It ignores so much while taking so much effort that could be more beneficially directed elsewhere.

I would note that it's possible it's used as the "reason" someone who's thinking they are trans comes out that that could be helpful as others have noted. But I'd hope such a person would have other, better support to make that hoice

spiraldinosaur · 2023-11-05T19:51:35+00:00

It's entirely ignorant and based on a misguided idea that women have advantages over men. It's one thing to recognise that your gender doesn't align with the gender you were assigned at birth. It's another to believe that women have it better than men and so you should transition.

salynch · 2023-11-05T19:12:34+00:00

This is like horseshoe theory for 1) game theory absolutists who have become completely ungrounded from reality and 2) closeted “eggs” who are unable to rationalize the creeping sense of gender dysphoria with the misogyny they’ve absorbed from redpill creators, culture, etc.

QueenPeachie · 2023-11-06T00:20:26+00:00

Stop trying to make fetch a thing. You've made some subreddits for this, and a podcast. You've invented a thing to be an expert about. FFS.

Quo_Usque · 2023-11-06T04:33:39+00:00

It's not a thing that people are actually doing. Maybe like one or two people. And if they are happier living as women, then good for them.

ThatBitchMalin · 2023-11-05T10:53:07+00:00

I believe that those few, who are seriously considering transmaxxing, were trans (or non-binary) all along. Which is why they're so convinced that their life will improve once they transition... because they finally get to live and be recognized as their correct gender! Their reasoning may be warped, but if it helps them towards the life that they deep down always wanted, I'm happy for them.

theStaberinde · 2023-11-05T15:07:41+00:00

Not a thing

It doesn’t make sense. If you’re a man transitioning to be a woman you’ll get opportunities to date men. But these incels aren’t even attracted to men so how would that benefit them?

ConsultJimMoriarty · 2023-11-06T04:36:56+00:00

I think men that do this are going to be very disappointed.

sickbabe · 2023-11-06T05:13:54+00:00

...is this something that you've done? has it worked the way you hoped it has? how does walking around on a saturday night work for you? I have so many questions

oldcousingreg · 2023-11-06T04:29:20+00:00

Never heard of it, has zero relevance to me. Gender identity is a personal thing so it’s none of my business.

Top_Radio_9436 · 2023-11-06T17:39:06+00:00

Its dumb. I'm all for LGBTQ+ rights and freedom of choice but anyone doing this is opting for life-changing surgery based on false premises. Men who become trans for these reasons probably make up a few of the "detransitioners" that right wing media outlets like to report on.

CalmLake1 · 2023-11-05T19:35:39+00:00

I'm so out of the loop. Never thought this be a conversation were having yet here we are.

incredulitor · 2023-11-06T05:03:56+00:00

I think you need to offer more context and vulnerability than asking "what do you think?" in order to get a positive and constructive reception.

azucarleta · 2023-11-06T16:27:46+00:00

It's a satire, friend. Sometimes proponents are so stuck up their own ass they don't realize they are the best parody of themselves imaginable. Sometimes as time passes they realize their clownishness and have a bunch of humiliation wash over them retroactively.

edit: to be clear, my best guess would be some closet case trans folks who have a lot of interalized transphobia operate the channel. This is some weird psychological salve making the ideation of transition safer and more comfortable, ironically, by inserting a lot of transphobia! LOL. We queers go through a lot on our way to finding ourselves, and this one seems quite lost.

fathergoose77 · 2023-11-06T19:32:24+00:00

Are you considering transitioning? If you feel so lost inside that the only thing that gives you a glimmer of comfort is the thought of living as a woman, I’d honestly encourage exploring it. Talk to others who may have felt like you. Experiment with how you feel in the mirror and in pictures in feminine clothing/makeup/hair. Think about what it might be feel to be recognized and acknowledged as a woman. Gender is fluid, you can do some experimenting without making the choice to have invasive surgeries. That’s totally okay. And if you don’t like it, then now you know.

If you’re expecting to get unlimited attention from dudes who want to buy you a castle and make all your problems go away, then you’re just living in a fantasy. That’s not how women experience life. You’re better off just trying to date dudes as yourself if you’re just interested in attention from men. Gay sugar daddies exist too ya know.
