Notice the use of "boy" here over "man." They really wanna be little boys like in their yaoi animes, not actual men
This plays into something I've been noticing more and more. How many people who troon out are actually running away from adulthood?it’s cause deep down inside they still want to be feminine but not have the unmistakably female sex characteristics as they’re terrified of being treated like shit for it plus a lot of things one has to deal with when female (like periods and wearing a bra) can be annoying and embarrassing, but they don’t want to be big hulking hairy men either so being an effeminate teenage boy is preferable for them and that way they feel they can express their sexuality without being shoved into the “woman box” they so dread. A lot of them specifically want to emulate Asian boys as they all seem to really love anime and K-pop.
Look at Sophie Labelle, Stefonknee, all the girls who want to opt out of puberty. So many of them have fantasies centered on being a child and wish they didn't have to grow up. The Labelle case made me start to notice how many of them are into ABDL and otherwise obsessed with childhood. It's easy to say "it's because they're all pedos" and some of them certainly are, but there seems to be more of a focus on actually being a child than having sex with them.
It's no secret that current social trends cause arrested development in people. Helicopter parenting, universities coddling students, kids not allowed to play outside. There are more and more people who don't want to grow up, and society certainly doesn't encourage them to. When people talk about "adulting" they're mostly talking about obligations they have to fulfill, not the fun things adults are allowed to do.
Most "transonas" are young people, with old guys putting on pink frilly dresses and women trying to be soft yaoi boys. It's obvious a lot of the girls transitioning are afraid of going through puberty and being treated as adult women. Is this really a matter of people who are afraid to grow up? Too bad psychologists aren't allowed to study this lest they lose their careers.
