does anyone else feel like much of the online femboy community is kinda encouraging fetishisation of trans identity?
it’s very much giving me belle delphine vibes at times with what i’m seeing.
like I feel like everyone memes or ignores these ppl but like I genuinely feel like some people need to call their community out at some point because the amount of the community who fetishise themselves and a lot of the ones online basically dress and subscribe to some type of porn caricature with stereotypical amazon basic outfits that you’d see in porn.
and every time I have to socially interact with a dude in public that has even a tiny inkling of attraction towards trans people or gender diversity, they can’t help but tell you about how much they fetishise trans people and about how much they love femboys or some shit, it’s really weird. but that community also feed into it.
like there’s even streamers who beg for donations and say they’ll take HRT etc if people donate or make OF. does anyone else not think it’s kinda weird and problematic? i think it’s sad that this is many people’s only exposure to gender diversity. it very much reminds me of Belle Delphine but more normalised.
this is absolutely not hate on feminine men. just feeling a bit critical of the associations with the term ‘femboy’ itself atm and how the community often feeds into fetishing trans people or the whole ‘trick/trap’ culture.
