This is the highest-rated response:
Amusingly, it could be read as a tactful rephrasing of 'YWNBAW'. The most important part of trooning out isn't that you think that you're a woman- it's that other people do and act accordingly. Troons rely on gender stereotypes and gendered fashion, as how else would we know that they're true & honest™ women? This unintentionally based redditor is basically saying 'yeah you probably look like the Michelin Man in drag but who cares gurl, the idea of men and women's clothing is a social construct anyway so it doesn't matter!'
If I found myself in a situation where I was forced to be polite and encouraging to a troon while still not committing to acknowledging them as a real woman, I would probably say something along the lines of what he said in that reply. No one would ever say that to a real woman under any circumstances and it's hard to imagine that at least one troon didn't feel a bit stung by that one.
