I did a fun (for me) science thread, but I promised I'd do a thread about trans men, virilismia, and the stigma against ugly women, so let's go! To start out: Are you a trans man whose spent some part of your life being perceived as an ugly woman? What do you make of that?

"wanting to be as thin as possible to have as few curves as possible" is definitely a thing I've seen come up before from trans men. For me it's more like, "is it really dysphoria if all of society is constantly reminding me that my body actually is horrible?"

That was me, along with feeling that being anorexic would allow me to finally succeed ('win') at womanhood. I don't love being fat as a cis-passing man, but its a different feeling from the revulsion I felt at being a woman that never went away no matter how skinny I got.
