ok ok ok ok fun idea what if being trans becomes high status broadly and then trans folks start erecting barriers to entry "fake trans girls" memes develop upper middle class parents worry their kids are too gender conforming and hire NB tutors how far can we take this

but this was always a fringe thing and commonly seen as a sort of collaborationism, seeking acceptance from terfs, or medical gatekeepers, or whatever
-
what's interesting now tho is it seems to be starting to mainstream? at least I encounter it a lot more in non-political internet spaces
-
the sense that zero standards plus prog prestige means that there are tons of fakes because saying "oh I'm trans now" and giving up is easier than actually trying to be a man
-
as trans marginally less-costly, marginally worthwhile proposition for more people. some can see this even if can't describe. some go "good for them", some "reeeee entryists (^)", some "[some third thing]" the "reeeee"s are proposing that this is a secret qualia debate somehow?
-
else i'm not sure what "fake" could mean unless making a left-field essential-nature-of-womanhood sort of proposition. i see some of this too and it's weird
