There's something very weird with SS14 that I have not seen elsewhere. All of them, despite their entire online schtick being how trans they are, have not transitioned in real life. Okay, that's not that unusual. I'm not confused yet, that would require #effort. Then they all continue to use male names on all their profiles. Uhhh... You're a trans woman named Pieter? You can't take 30 seconds to update your Github?
I know 6 of their names which they freely give in linked profiles and zero of their preferred female names. What the fuck is going on? I have never seen anything like it.
It makes
perfect sense.
As someone with a legit PHD in trannology and internet Blanchardism, I will explain.
These are
autistic AGP trannies, they nut to the idea of being a woman and are attracted to women, which differentiates them from the HSTS tranny that just wants to fuck men and makes an effort to pass early so they don't get beat up when the dude discovers the surprise hot dog. The autism, which is comorbid with AGPs, is an extra factor, contributing to the lack of self awareness.
SS13 provides the best opportunity for them to explore their "gender euphoria" through their femstatics while pretty much neglecting "irl womanhood" beyond the typical HRT prescription growing long and greasy locks. In other words, they're getting their tranny drug hit from SS13. It's a form of escapism, since it's almost completely based in fetish and a desire to escape the beta male living experience. They often seek to just grow breasts and long hair for masturbation purposes, they rarely focus on anything that will make them vaguely pass like actually getting voice or facial feminization surgery.
These things aren't out of their reach by the way, since many of them are software engineers and firmly in the middle to upper middle class.
They also work in very autistic masculine fields like programming where being an actual woman will ick employers out unless they're looking for cheap low-paid DEI hires - so they like to "boymode" to get the best jobs. They work professionally as men, usually they'll try to get into the field of choice and then troon out on their employer later who will have no choice but to accept their she/her pronouns or face a lawsuit. Some don't transition at all irl, since larping on the internet satisfies their fetish adequately.
A lot of these specific types of SS13 devs also tend to put SS13 on their resumes and GitHub professional pages - /tg/ devs are notorious for this. This is partially what has contributed to the taming and SJW'ing of SS13 codebases, to avoid any controversies when it comes to their professional experience.
