    Friend, I have news for you, if the only reason you wouldn’t want to be trans is because of society’s backlash while wishing you were an attractive woman…well…

      But if a genie were to grant me three wishes, becoming a super hot 18 year old girl would be on the list.

      Well, an ugly dude like me going trans would result in an ugly trans person, not an attractive woman, so there’s that.

        Not true. Trans people get hotter when they transition. Not saying you’re trans, I just want you to have all the information.

          Yeah no, I was ugly before and now I’m an ugly trans person. Being like this is obviously way better than how I was before transitioning for multiple personal reasons, but it’s not some magical miracle cure to looks. I think people say that because transitioning makes them feel so much better about themselves, so they stop perceiving and judging themselves so negatively. The boost in confidence probably makes them seem “hotter” too, since people tend to perceive confidence to be attractive after all

          I commend you for your opinion, but would I believe I got hotter? No. And that’s the point.
