I believe Blanchard's typology is grossly incomplete and I propose to add more. Here are the ones I could think of:> YAF: Youthful Appearance FixationForms a strong core identification with a youthful male appearance as opposed to that of a mature male and transitions in an attempt to remain closer to that> FSF: Female Sociality FixationDisgruntled or repulsed by typical male social expectations and behaviors and prefers a female role and its requisite behaviors> OpTS: Opportunistic TranssexualDesires transition out of a belief that it will make life easierAny others you can think of? Also, out of curiosity, do you think these are excuses the brain comes up with to justify responding to some innate mind-body mismatch or are that they real origin points of what is experienced as dysphoria?
unfortunately blanchard typology is like the fuckin catholic church around these parts its never going away despite the fact that its horrifically flawed
>>45108041Psh, all we need is an actual holocaust this time The Jews are kinda right about normies, give a normie two concepts that have similarities and contrasts and call it a dialectic spectrum and normies will masturbate themselves into a mindless cum puddle over it to prove they have the social status to understand it
>I'm so yaf bro
>>45107997def an fsfI did not find any part of transitioning to be easier and I did not desire to look like im a kid againalso men are hoth o t
>>45108237>do you think these are excuses the brain comes up with to justify responding to some innate mind-body mismatch or are that they real origin points of what is experienced as dysphoriaI really don't know. on the one hand the things I was thinking about when I fist contemplated transition weren't "I'm uncomfortable with my body this feels wrong ugh" they were "girls get to hug each other and talk openly about their feelings and stuff" but I also feel like the extent to which I'm repulsed by my male traits can't be explained by just society, like I'd still hate having them if it was magically guaranteed that no one would ever perceive me as male ever again yknow
did not mean to reply to that
>>45108265>also men are hot>h o tsaying is either performative or just means you're a whore
>>45108367why not both
>>45108265I never paid attention to guys until I transitioned, is this why so many believe in meta attraction? like recently one of my friends went and got changed into a dressing gown without telling me while I was at his place and when he came out it was showing a fair bit of his chest and I practically melted on the spot, I can't picture pretransition me doing that
>>45109032No ur just a faggot
>>45107997FSF and OpTS are the same, no?
>>45109544I'd say the difference is one's more emotional and almost idolizes women and the other's like "get resources", I can definitely see the overlap though
>>45108073I just find it funny
>>45108408being a whore at least implies actual attraction to men
>>45109544no, not reallythe difference is in one being unfair and the other being idealized.for exampleFSF would want true equalityOpTS is likely to assimilate to female society
>>45109103I'm telling you I was a gynephile through and through, idk what happened
>>45107997FSF is literally just a reworded form of HSTSIts the idea that you transition to fit in with the female social role in society, and you adjust your appearance to match it. Your personality and interests generally already fit in with those of cis women and you alter your body to be socially accepted for being that way.AGPs/transbians tend to get hyperfixated on specific body parts (having giant boobs, supermodel hips, vaginas etc) and don't seem to care as much about acting feminine or fitting in with cis women. Hussies just want to look female enough to pass in society and attract men and don't hyperfixate as much.
>>45114329I thought it was the other way around
>>45114383HSTS will often get boob jobs or bbls or facial work to look more attractive to men. They aren't personally attracted to it, its for getting a partner. Whereas I see so many posts by transbians despairing over never having supermodel instagram hips or whatever.
>>45114383I'll explain. agp is a very broad category but generally to me it describes anyone who envisions themselves as female in some context and wants to make that manifest in reality, which, despite them having typically moidy interests and social habits, makes them want to change their habits to fit that of cis womenwhereas hsts are more naturally suited to the social role but since the object of their focus is to attract men instead of to appeal to themselves they focus on emphasizing stereotypically attractive traits, moreso than an agp for whom having any of female traits in the first place is a delight all on its own>>45114405>HSTS will often get boob jobs or bbls or facial work to look more attractive to men. They aren't personally attracted to it, its for getting a partnerok that's literally what I was saying>I see so many posts by transbians despairing over never having supermodel instagram hips or whateverfalling victim to mentality also pushed on cis women, but much more susceptible due to the profound insecurity of being trans
So we are canonicalizing Transmaxxing then?
>>45114329The issue with Blanchard is that his concepts were fixated of sexuality and desire when in reality most mtfs don't actually transition for those reasons. If you ask a mtf why did you transition at a bunch of different points they will say something different, the reason most are obsessive with body is that fitting in requires them to look and act a certain way and our society gatekeeps them both legally and socially. I understand non of the gatekeeping is going to change but you can't sit there and say AGP or HSTS when it's not accurate to reality, honestly the more people spam this shit the more dead it gets so by all means keep beating a dead horse.
>>45114426I more meant I see AGPs obsessing over tiny details of SRS vaginas and how its not their ideal dream shape. Whereas I got SRS to have sex and honestly as long as it looks decent enough I don't care.
>>45114513again, insecurity. srs vaginas don't look like cis vaginas upon close inspection, and neither of them look like the typical medical diagrams
>>45114510>If you ask a mtf why did you transition at a bunch of different points they will say something differentbecause they're lying and will say anything to justify living their fetish
>>45114455It's a distinct and notable type of transitioner, so yes it should be recognized
>>45107997Fuck I feel called out by that first one
>>45115804Nothing to be ashamed of, all types are equally invalid
surreal to be reminded that guy's still alive and not like, around freud's time
>>45116252
>>45116260idk what camp miasma is, not a yankee
>>45116272the movie jane schoenbrun made after tv glow
>>45112670does it?you can be an AGP meta-attracted whore
>>45116284who the fuck fucks men who doesn't want to fuck men men are gross
>>45116199Don't care gonna still gonna take hrt forever because it makes me look way cuter than I ever could have otherwise and that's all that matters to me.
>>45116321tweeze your eyebrows
>>45116260>posts quote calling him backwards and a misogynist to deny the part calling him a filmmaker
it'd be interesting to do a poll of who's what including the major types in addition to these, see what the board's real demographics are. cause the stereotype is of us all being opts but realistically it's probably an even split between yaf and fsf with only a handful of actual transmaxxers>>45108367it's just so incredibly trve that it warrants mentioning at every possible opportunity
>>45107997i'm not autistic/dumb enough to be obsessed with this kind of irrelevant reductionism.
