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
