>in a sex and psychology class in college>professor invites a panel of trans people to come do a Q&A>two of them are transwomen in their 50s/60s>one is a drag queen in her 50s>the final is an ftm grad student who is like 24>both mtfs talk about their wives and kids>"i like presenting femme and going out as my girl self because people are nicer to me, especially the men :) but sometimes you just feel more like a tomboy and wanna wear jeans!">"i swap between them sometimes. like when im at my job as a car salesperson im always in fem because it makes closing deals easier ;)">drag queen spends 90% of her time talking about how being a woman is valid no matter how you present, the mtfs nod>ftm is sitting there awkwardly the entire time>speaks up to mention that transmasc identities are often ignored in these discussions>every Q&A question is about mtfs>panelists basically ignore the questions or reply with some non-answer about how all identities are valid and you just need to live your truthWhy is the generational gap between tranners so fucking insane? What the fuck was in the water back then? I feel like listening to these kinds of stories is interesting in the way that reading a history book is interesting but it's so far detached from what people are like now I can't possibly relate. Why is every tranner over 50 just some gigachad who tells you the secret to gender expression is "just bee urself"?
>>45221363nowadays AGPs find out about transition much earlier so we don't go down the family man repper pipeline.
>>45221363Gen Xers are selfish and ignorant. It's not a surprise that trannies over 50+ are that way too.
>>45221515gen X are speedrunning becoming their boomer parents
>>45221363>What the fuck was in the water back then?The water was fine but gasoline had lead in it
>>45221363i've met some absolutely psychotic boomerhons and concluded it's better to just give up on life before you hit 40
>>45221363most normal trans people from older generations either killed themselves or went deep stealth. the ones who were willing and able to wait, or who didn't even feel the need to transition until recently, aren't the same as normal trans peoplehonestly i believe in rogd, but as a midlife crisis thing. maybe it's the lead poisoning causing some kind of neurodegenerative change that makes them want to troon out suddenly
>>45222946adding onto this, i've met some older trans people who came out when they were young and decided to be out and do activism for the community, and they aren't like typical boomerhons at all. they're just like normal trans people but older. i really do think boomerhons are a separate thing
>>45221624My parents are both in their 50s and they're considered gen xThe *youngest* boomer is like 62 now
>>45221363Nah they're based, I want to meet these hons and suck them off, they're probably packing big dicks
