A trans woman’s view on crossdressing sissies and other GNC men
You’re not us.
I’m a trans woman and I know a few sissies. Some pay me. Some I’m friendly with, but wouldn’t call friends. The former are invariably older men of privilege and the latter are younger people exploring gender.
These two things are not the same.
Some people use the term because they think being feminine makes one weak, thus it’s humiliating to be so. That’s a very toxically masculine mindset. Women aren’t weak. We’re stronger than men in so many ways. We’re their partners, not their dependents.
Some people use the term to take back feminine manhood and own it. There’s no shame in their game. I see absolutely no issues with this.
Some people who use the term associate it with race play. Just. Eww.
Many don’t.
And as a doll player, I understand the aesthetic, while as a (switch) bottom, I understand the ultra submissiveness. But there are gender and generation gaps here.
A lot of young femboy types aren’t going out into the world and exerting any kind of gender privilege. They’re usually visibly gender fluid as opposed to switching between binary identities. They’re not exactly purging.
Meanwhile, my Boomer ex-husband was a male crossdresser with a sissy fetish who said he respected women, but constantly disrespected his own wife while insisting he was being disrespected by her.
I later found photos of him faceapped into a black woman.
This is the fucking epitome of white male privilege, and he’s the one who filed for divorce because I kept reminding him of that. Good riddance.
Put simpler, I would posit that there are a few types of sissies, and they range from innocuous to outright misogynistic.
