>Trannies are men who, instead of coming to terms with who and what they are like the rest of us and become okay with being gay,
Only some transwomen are into men. It depends; there's a theory out there stating there are two kinds of transwomen, we might call them Type A and Type B.
Type A transwomen are effeminate men, usually with a pre-existing hormone imbalance making them androgynous. They are usually attracted to men and would be effeminate gay men if they didn't transition, but in some or even many cases, they would actually have an easier time socially if they were simply treated as women, because functionally they check most of the boxes for females anyways and have a harder time as men. Passing is the goal here. Passing transwomen are almost always of this type.
Type B transwomen usually transition later and are not effeminate physically. They are usually attracted to women and not to men, and are functional straight men up until their transition point. They do not pass, and do not seek to pass. The point is to become female in itself; the goal seems to be a more inherent assertion of an inward feeling of being female. These are the types of transwomen who are going to get triggered more often, be more easily offended, have more problems with cis men, etc, becase they have such negative associations with cis men and want nothing to do with them.
What I've noticed–and this is based on observation of my own rather than scientific study, although I'd be very curious to see the studies on this–is that even if these are two broad generalizations and not specific to every transwoman, more often than not this is the case. Transwomen who truly pass, or who can be quite attractive and work with what they have, tend to be the most socially well-adjusted, rational, etc. Plenty of these types seem to be pansexual although certainly more of them are interested in men than type B, and vice versa. Non-passing transwomen who transitioned quite late in life are more threatened by their inability to pass and much more interested in integrating themselves as much as possible into the lesbian and radical feminist worlds. Asserting their femininity becomes a constant requirement unless they are among themselves and their specific communities.
