Thailand also has a third gender for MTF and Iran has support for MTF operations. What's interesting to me is that FTM doesn't seem to get the same support. Why is that?
Is it because patriarchy doesn't want to allow more into the club but is fine with kicking people out? Is there a biological force which makes MTF more common?
Not trying to offend anyone, I am genuinely curious.
- rsynnott 8y agoThere are arguable examples, for instance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanian_sworn_virgins https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanian_sworn_virgins However, even in the modern west, the existence of FTM transgender people people tends to be largely ignored by society. I think it is a concept that people are even less willing to accept than the idea of MTF transgender people, though I could only speculate why.
