There are some troons that I can see people getting fooled by, like Blaire White, but middle aged AGPs like “Emmy” here seem super obvious to me.
Photographs are harder to clock, especially in the age of perma-filters, so if you just go by the odd selfie I find quite a few MtF troons can pass as a dumpy woman. Of course, they're going for 'sexy woman', so they fail at that level, but the photo
@JY's Tampon just posted, for example, could pass for a female cancer patient.
The moment you add other details, though - them in motion, them in contrast to actual women, them without filters, them speaking - then it seems like the only people who don't clock troons are other troons. Whether that's due to autism, face-blindness, the cult mentality, general delusion and/or just plain lying, troon circle-jerks around each others selfies generally have the air of true believers, as opposed to asspats from handmaidens who generally sound like they're encouraging a small child who just dressed themselves for the first time. Sure, the buttons are all wrong and the pants are on backwards, but
good work, little fella, you look really nice!
FtMs can pass a lot easier if they put effort in, but most of that for me is when they have a beard. So some can properly pass, but even just taking the hormones permanently alter their bodies. Considering something like 90% of MtF troons don't ever get surgery, a lot of them can just cut their hair and wear a suit and go back to reality. FtMs get fucked up way worse if they do anything more than change their names and pronouns and cut their hair short, *cough*Eliot Page*cough*.
Also, I began to think. What kind of 41 year woman goes by Emmy? I can only think of Emmy Lou Harris but she's talented and famous. Jimmy is neither and is just a teenage girl fetishist.
I looked it up to check, and it's Emmylou Harris and it appears she was born with that name. But this is a man LARPing as a teenage girl, so it's worse, because he actually
chose that name for himself to sound cutesy.
