Yep, I imagine all the tales of “male privilege” made manhood sound like easy street, it must be shocking when they join Team Masculine as a skinny little 5-2 muscle-less twig and they find that other men shit on men like that the same as she used to love shitting on them, only harder. Being able to maybe grow a beard thanks to the hormones doesn’t help, it turns out.
I’m not going to pretend I’m the second coming of Arnold Schwarzenegger myself, but I can’t imagine wanting to be treated by society as a man but have women’s size and strength. It’d be the worst of both worlds.
But they aren’t becoming men. They’re becoming trans. And trans people have enormous sway in the current political and cultural discourse. That’s why teenage white girls are doing it. They want attention, they want power over others, and they want to escape the oppressor designation put on them by their skin color.
While I still hold that eventually the trans “man” will get into situations where they are judged as men and thus judged as low value men, I do agree with your explanation too, about many simply reaching for an “oppressed” power class according to the view of the world the woke Internet taught them.
But even that’s kind of a dead end since trans “men” don’t have half the social power over real men that trans “women” have over real women, so even “his” power to cry out as “he” strikes us turns out to be pretty empty. Women being agreeable and vulnerable led them to cede a lot of territory to trans usurpers. Men being strong and blunt means girls on hormones don’t stand a chance. Like, can you imagine trans “men” coming into our sports and dominating? No. What would happen if a trans “gay man” tried their variation of the common trans “lesbian” move and insisted that men should have sex with them? We would just laugh, and if they started in about us being bigots, we could literally pick them up and drop them in the nearest garbage can. Even the ulterior motivation for going trans is not the escape-from-all-problems that it can be for men who turn into fake women.
Therr was one lesbian who "transitioned" fully expecting to cash-in her "male privilege".
First experience was whining people ignored "him" at the train station as she struggled with her luggage. Welcome to reality : male privilege isn't real.
Bonus irony for doing something quitessentially female : bringning too much luggage.
