One I was the closest to (before I moved out). She studied in a field adjacent to mine, and worked in the same student association as I did. In spite of being a pooner, she was a fairly nice person, if a bit stupid. She is a type to keep repeating she is tough and strong and hotheaded, but can’t even talk to retail workers without having a panic attack (true story). She was so meek she couldn’t even bring herself to correct her (aforementioned) tranny friend when they misgendered her to her face.
While the previous two were the type of enbies who keep repeating they don’t care about gender norms and roles, this pooner was the quintessential fujoshi. Her favorite anime were Black Butler and Yuri On Ice. She loves Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss, even got at least two tattoos inspired by the shows. She can never relate to female characters and only projects onto male ones.
Despite her crippling dysphoria and saying she wants to transition, in the ten years I’ve known her, she’s made no attempt to. Her few therapists always discouraged her because her dysphoria obviously came from internalized misogyny, body dysmorphia and yaoi addiction. She’s also a singer, and kept trying to persuade herself her voice would not sound terrible if she started HRT, but she has no idea how to speak/sing from her chest. She’s 4’6, overweight (because it’s hard not to be when you’re so short), and has an eating disorder which contributes to her dysphoria. She wants top surgery, but keeps wearing revealing clothes clearly showcasing her tits. She had a crush on me, and sent me nudes, unprompted, to which I only replied “ok”, because what else is there to say?
She is currently dating another pooner who does no effort to transition, and they are true yaoi boyz together (boys, never men. they are 29); her best (male) friend also trooned out in typical HSTS fashion.
Our ‘friendship’ (she idolized me, I tolerated her) fizzled out when she finished her Master’s degree and moved out. She’s tried to keep in touch, and I entertained her, once or twice, but most of the time I don’t answer to her.
