    It seems like Lemmy is all about trans women, I’m genuinely curious though why we don’t have more trans men content. I’d say it’s maybe on the order of 10:1 posts celebrating trans fem vs trans masc (obviously not a scientific calculation).

    I don’t have a lot of background in a lot of trans spaces so this is coming from a place of ignorance, but do people in the community have any insight as to why it seems to be this way?

    Take this one for instance, it specifically says trans women. Why wouldn’t this just say trans people, comrades or something like that? Is there a large descrepancy between numbers of trans fem/masc or something?

    Edit. I appreciate what people have said below. Together these responses give a textured albeit 10,000 foot answer to my question, which was what I was looking for. Thanks ya’ll.

      put simply, my transmasc brother in law is more concerned about what fish he’s gonna catch next than the effects of corporate censorship on the current operating system market share

      I hear bluesky has more transmascs tho

          he sent me a photo today, this is the next fish he caught

          also that’s a shirt that says “im not like other women, I’m a man.” and I think it’s SO funny because nobody looks twice at him about it
