Alright. I'm going to give my long answer to this, and it's based on observations of being a trap.
Sometimes I do wish I was a girl, yes, but maybe not for the reasons you think. I don't care about breasts or boobs. I hate my dick, but I have to live with it, but I don't go wishing I had other parts. I don't feel like the stereotypical man, though I am one. I crossdress because I feel more comfortable in those clothes somehow. It's not even a sexual thing.
I think this reason helps explain why there are so many trannys, especially ones who still post here and/or are AGP. But there is one more reason above and beyond this: it is easier to live as a woman nowadays than as a man. You may say women are weaker and less witty, which is true, but society is giving them everything they want and more. It's easier to be able to find someone who will take care of you as a woman than as a man. You are never expected to approach but have the pick of people who do approach. It's similar for gay guys to a small extent but as a woman there is no societal stigma for it. In addition, women don't need to achieve and are not expected to achieve at a man's level, yet if they get anywhere near close they are given beyond what the equivalent man would get, which is seen in STEM especially.
And even when they make it in STEM, they STILL COMPLAIN and are given the listening ear.
Women are allowed to show their emotions, to cry and laugh. A lot of people I've spoken to who became trannys said they cried for the first time in years when they started, and it's because finally they believe they have the ability to, since men don't cry.
Women are allowed to dress however they want. If they dress cute, they are complemented. If they dress in a handsome suit, they are complemented.
And now, the number one reason why I think people want to be women, and why there is such a massive number of MtF over FtM (other than biological reasons): complements. I have crossdressed outside. I have been to bars and clubs. My face is boyish but I have a great figure and long hair so it's fine. I've been hit on nearly every time I've gone out. People approach me, sometimes bush my arm with their hand hoping I look to them as they pass. I've been asked about everything about myself. People offer to buy drinks. Girls have even smiled at me and complemented me. Some have asked to touch my hair, since I get it nice as well, and have asked where I got my outfits. And I dress incredibly conservative! Still, I decline the approachers and never lead them on or allowed them to waste their money on me because when I go out and CD it's with friends.
But when I go out in my normal wardrobe, my boy clothes, I never get that attention. People give me weird looks on the train because I'm a boy with long hair. People sometimes are afraid of me because they think I look too imposing, but at the same time I approach others and they think I am not worth their time. I feel like I'm a monster some days and a ghost others. Not many women know this feeling, but some (perhaps many) FtM do. There have been articles documenting the change and how they miss the attention, how they miss just people opening doors for them. These little things are not often experienced by men, but when i dress as a woman I experience them endlessly and am so appreciative of these kind gestures.
So perhaps this is why there are so many people who want to be girls or who say they would if given the chance. I understand completely why there are so many people who are trannys, because you both become part of this new community that's super supportive and get all the attention and kindness you would never get otherwise, while at the same time many are AGP and turned on by their own bodies. But after just the first time outside, getting all that attention, it was exhilarating. Not because it was taboo, and I certainly wasn't turned on, but because for the first time in my life I felt desirable. I felt like a person, like I mattered.
Bottom line, no I would not be a woman because I don't want a vagina or breasts but sometimes I consider what life would be like. There are many things I don't know, yes, but hat was just my two cents. And no I'm not claiming to speak or anyone else, this is just my opinion before some pissed off tranny talks at me.
