noticing a lot of infantilization pushed even by other trans women. i feel like this could be out of grief for a girlhood we weren’t readily offered?? like i’m encouraged to de-age myself to almost emulate experiencing girlhood. mostly see this online ofc
seeming as non-threatening as possible is a natural adaptation to transmisogyny

as a transman i yearn for whimsical boyhood so bad i feel crazy. i feel like for transmen it's the opposite in terms of being encouraged to de-age, but i def maladaptive daydream about being small

a lot of things that are pushed as feminine today are associated with youth (no body hair, big eyes, small bodies, etc) so that could also be some of what you're seeing
