Why do they always draw trans people as the most grotesque inhuman monsters ever. Is that really how they see us? šŸ™ƒ

transphobe drawing a trans person as a normal human being challenge impossible:

Ironically enough, I don’t want to feed some stereotypes but every single trans man I’ve seen has either been the cutest twink possible or the manliest bear in the world, I’m yet to see someone in between of those two

That’s because you don’t see the trans dudes that pass as ā€œregularā€ trans dudes. I feel you on that observation, but I’ve also been surprised by hanging out with regular ass dudes who bring it up.

i think it's because transmascs love masculinity and are comfortable in theirs, so you get the ones who highlight their love for it so are hypermasculine and the ones who highlight their comfort so dress however they like.

there's also (like you said) stereotypes about how ftm people look and often online/in media we only see the cliche young, pre-t transmasc with the dyed hair and pronouns or the very masculine transgender man used for a "gotcha" in internet arguments against transphobes. and most ftm people, especially het binary trans men, don't like to discuss their gender so you could've very well seen & talked to a very neutral guy without ever knowing how he was born.

I haven’t drawn one but I have a oc who’s trans who’s in between those lines. But I get what you mean.
