Why does trans women come before trans men?

In everything else men comes before women, or males before females. It happens when you fill out a profile or the census for example, but also in writing or speech.

So why do we say trans women and trans men?

It honestly seems like subtle misgendering. You can say that it's some feminist statement to put women first but I really, really do not believe that this was the intention. Everyone does it including transphobes and non/anti-feminists, in fact they may have been the ones to start it.

People tend to say "trans women and trans men" or "MTF and FTM" which mirrors the pattern of "men and women", "boys and girls", "husband and wife".

because the trans woman has a longer stay in peoples heads

Why not just say trans(woman ∧ man), or even better, trans(man(wo∧1)).

Chud should not have arms that big or hairy. Too attractive.

trans women fight harder for real trans rights.

Because cis women are fucking annoying and 99% of trans "men" are just cis women that want to pretend to be special.

Ftm are nice guys and abide by ladies first. Cis men are narcissistic and prefer to put themselves first.
