Do men or women accept us gender variants more?
After reading the threads "Why are women so quick to kick us to the curb like garbage?" and "Crossdresser is a pervert?", I have another broader question.
This question is for all MTF gender variants, including CDers, TSes, gender fluid, and anyone else on the TG spectrum.
1. Are men or women, on average, more likely to accept us when it comes to dating? By us, this includes all MTF gender variants - CDers, TSes, gender fluids, and anyone else on the TG spectrum. Why do you think this might be so?
2. Are men or women, on average, more likely to accept us when it comes to situations other than dating, such as being friends, work, family members, or casual acquaintances? By us, this includes all MTF gender variants - CDers, TSes, gender fluids, and anyone else on the TG spectrum. Why do you think this might be so?
3. Do you think an out CDer, or an out TS, faces worse discrimination in society?
My answer: I'm not personally sure if men or women accept us more. I do think there are specific reasons men and women might fear us.
Reasons men fear us:
1. We are a threat to their masculinity
2. If they are attracted to us, they might think they're gay
Reasons women fear us:
1. If they perceive us to look prettier than them, regardless of how well we pass, they might feel jealous of us because we get more male attention than them
2. They might think we're perverts trying to invade their spaces
Edit: I changed the underlined portion, because I do not want to get accused of saying that CDers or TSes are prettier than GGs. I am talking about the perception of a GG, which I have seen evidence of on this forum.
