Yup. Even when I was living and presenting as male, I was never what anyone would call masculine. Trans healthcare and being able to exist as my real identity has completely removed everything about me that conservatives would consider to be masculine traits.* Obviously not every trans woman is me, but in my experience most of us want nothing to do with manhood.

Spoiler for “Secrets!”:

And even though I haven’t had bottom surgery yet, my downstairs is a shriveled up mess that barely works at all. I literally couldn’t assault a woman if I tried. Not sure if that’s the common experience though.
