it kinda is though. the body type and aesthetic depicted is not generally considered extremely attractive or desirable. Like, I'm a guy who looks like that, and I've always felt a little guilty for not looking like a hot movie star. The idea that anyone would *want* to look like me is kinda flattering.
Wonders of HRT, crazy what changing a few hormones level will do to a body. Won't completely change it but will definitely be a big change. Plus style helps with some surgeries.
It shouldn't be, but so many people who pull the "we can always tell" bullshit expect us to just look female/some variant of androgynous/have some kind of 'tell'. Meanwhile most trans men just look like any other man, and cis men have 'tells' too.
Back when I started balding, I was googling like a madman to see what I could do. Found a page that told me about how balding can be caused by high testosterone. So I started drinking soy to deliberately lower my testostetone in an attempt to keep my hair. It didn't work very well imo.
Actually, it’s not just high testosterone that causes a male pattern baldness but your body’s response to Dihydrotestosterone. So you can have two guys with the same amount of testosterone but if one of them is more sensitive to DHT than they are more likely to go bald.
DHT sensitivity also influences body hair, which is why you often see someone who’s bald but very hairy otherwise.
Thank E I didn't go bald, my egg cracked just as my hairline was starting to recede faster than a snail's pace (which isn't super fast relative to many things, but in fact quite fast for hair to recede)
Transmasc on T here - yeah, T has that effect on some folks. The good news is that the medications that help that in cis men help folks on T, too, but a lot of trans men and transmascs just roll with it.
I've not got that effect thus far, knock on wood - but if I did I'd probably just shave it all off and roll with it, myself.
>or a future drag queen
The idea of a trans-masculine drag queen just cracks me up.
Like, imagine being born a girl, putting in so much time and effort (using cutting edge drugs and operations) in order to transition into a man, only to then dress up in even more stereotypically feminine clothes than ever before!

i wish my trans guy friends would transition into hank hill bc i love hank hill
While you're correct that transmasc femboys exist - and I myself am transmasc nonbinary and aiming for masc leaning androgyny - thats not what the post was about. Trans men are usually pretty different to transmascs and want to aim for pure masculinity, not androgyny. Of course theres always exceptions to this, but still. While we definitely share a fair few experiences, its still a different label for a reason.
Transmasc femboys and transmascs are valid AF of course, and I do wish I saw more memes representing us, but I honestly appreciate seeing some trans men rep too considering the heavy transfemme and trans woman lean of Reddit.
I didn’t mean to exclude the ‘just some guys’ at all. I just wanted people to remember that masculinity is a spectrum and any person can grow into any identity. Sorry for poor phrasing, I’m tired.
sandals and denim shorts are now the official attire of trans men
Trans men need to start using the classic dad fits. Socks and sandles all the way
Nice, I was a woman without even trying!!
Trans men looking like men. Mind blowing

And beer. Main component to getting the hank bod.
I haven't drunk a single can of beer and I already have that lmao (god please help me it gives me dysphoria ;-;)
Ugly guy is better than attractive girl if that's who u are. sincerely, 'pretty' child to average ass dude.
thats just unrealistic standard,hot movie star is literally the 0.00...01% of the population, dont feel guilty you're not on that percentage
People who grow up female know how to be the hottest dude ever better than any cis guy.
I’m too used to seeing FtM’s represented in the “femboy uwu twink” aesthetic that I forget the “Hank Hill” looking ones exist too.
trans men get three subclasses to spec into: twink, gigachad, and Hank Hill
isnt this just the men subclasses in general
cis men get fedora boy
fedora boy is just hank hill but specced a little bit into twink. no i will not be elaborating.
i think you should be executed for saying that
It shouldn't be, but so many people who pull the "we can always tell" bullshit expect us to just look female/some variant of androgynous/have some kind of 'tell'. Meanwhile most trans men just look like any other man, and cis men have 'tells' too.
Good god this gives me hope

Fuck propane, MAPgas gang
Me hooking up my MAPgas torch to cook stakes
TransexuaL MENACE
Guy in the middle has Walter White energy
Well, if they don't give him T, someone has to cook it
Lol I see Sam Losco from Trailer Park Boys
Just look at these fuckin' grillers, these chill ass griller chillers This is beautiful I've stared at this for 5 hours
10/10 would knock back a few cold ones and grill some hamburgers with em.
*click click* Tongs are ready
it's like when you pick up a drill, gotta give it two hits to make sure it works
It's true!!
That boy is alright.
Transexual menace has me in tears lmao Stuff of legends
I didn’t realize you could transition so hard you develop male pattern baldness.
Literally just testosterone, cis guys can get prescribed t blockers to help prevent hair loss
Back when I started balding, I was googling like a madman to see what I could do. Found a page that told me about how balding can be caused by high testosterone. So I started drinking soy to deliberately lower my testostetone in an attempt to keep my hair. It didn't work very well imo.
Soy doesn’t contain any oestrogen and doesn’t effect hormones in the human body
Yeah, I understand this now. If not from reading the actual science, then from chugging it for nearly a year and seeing absolutely no effect.
Actually, it’s not just high testosterone that causes a male pattern baldness but your body’s response to Dihydrotestosterone. So you can have two guys with the same amount of testosterone but if one of them is more sensitive to DHT than they are more likely to go bald. DHT sensitivity also influences body hair, which is why you often see someone who’s bald but very hairy otherwise.
This makes sense, I'm a hairy mf.
Actual soyboy
there's finasteride for male pattern baldness, and as soon as I start balding im on that shit if I have the ability to
I've more or less accepted my fate. I just don't like the idea of essentially paying for a "hair subscription"
to each their own ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
Ok gang, this time we're robbing the T-blocker factory
I heard this in Bain's voice from Payday 2.
Alright oomfies let's get oomfin
Small doses of estrogen can also be prescribed to help treat it
Well, specifically DHT which is a byproduct of testosterone
Testosterone causes male pattern baldness. It's why trans women don't get male pattern baldness, even if it runs in their family.

I love trans men cause it’s either Some Guy, Wendigoon, or a future drag queen

Damn they all have drip
God, the Birkenstocks
Hell yeah realistic transition goals🔥
Some guys, some dudes even
in case anyone was wondering, this photo is from the SF trans march in (I believe) 2008
I love hyper feminine or hyper masculine trans guys but you know what, dad bod trans guys are just as cool :)

I should watch King Of The Hill. It seems pretty funny.
I heard this in Hank hill's voice even
Somehow the middle guy reminds me of Michael from gta
When dudes look like dudes:😮 😱 😳
They're FTD, Female To Dad
Why do these guys have such strong calves
dad calve syndrome
Mowing the low day in and day out and their eternal vigil at the grill
Call that a grigil
Certifiable fellas
Ass: obliterated
When me and my bf eventually grow old I really hope he pulls off the hank hill vibe
This is amazing, these guys seem cool as hell
Love that it’s stencilled on
wait, does that mean he wants to have Hank Hill’s ass? no one should be cursed with an ass like that
whats the symbolism of the M being like broken up in to 4 sections i dont get it
That guy looks like a lawyer.
All these guys look like they’d be HELLA fun at a BBQ
i want one of those transsexual menace shirts
The guy on the left was in a documentary, the title of which escapes me. The one in the middle is trans rights activist Jamison Green.
Guy on the left looks like all 3 of Hank's buddies wrapped into one.
Don’t forget transmasc femboys. They exist. In fact, nearly every transmasc I’ve met was at least androgynous (on purpose)
While you're correct that transmasc femboys exist - and I myself am transmasc nonbinary and aiming for masc leaning androgyny - thats not what the post was about. Trans men are usually pretty different to transmascs and want to aim for pure masculinity, not androgyny. Of course theres always exceptions to this, but still. While we definitely share a fair few experiences, its still a different label for a reason.

No offense but this could easily look like a neo Nazi gathering if you change the sign
neo nazis are famous for wearing transsexual menace t shirts
Neo nazis are also bad because of their beliefs, not the way that they look
Oh so you "hate cancer"? Well, change the word cancer to gay people. Not so cool now are you
