I think you’ll find varying views on this, some people talk about how trans female upbringings/ability to assimulate to the local “male” culture are in many ways different to baseline cis men and there is a lot of truth in this as well, certainly the median pretransition trans woman is probably several sd less assertative than the median cis man.
I guess I’m nonzero of a biodeterminist of this because of things like sex drive being pretty different, I don’t think this necessarily implies a pessimistic viewpoint on this. People who steal cars are more likely to like cars, but presumably there are other character traits that cause people to steal cars and we don’t throw up our hands and say solving car theft is impossible
ok I guess trans women are more likely to be in very sexually open subcultures, unclear if this helps or harms
(in general I endorse the style guide for a lot of this stuff being ‘cis men are like so, cis women are like so, i have no idea what trans people are like’ instead of guessing)
