    Everything is fetishized by the right, especially the things they claim to hate.

      I mean it’s the logical conclusion of “everything the right says is projection”

      If a right winger wants to ban something you can find as a category on pornhub, that’s what they’ve been clicking.

    I don’t think it’s widespread or mainstream, but speaking as a femboy, we are fetishized a lot in general. Even normal people often just assume I’m hyperhorny, like the only reason I’m femmodeing is because I want cock. The creepy part about the right-wingers is they see us as “failed males” and specifically get off on the idea of asserting their dominance over us. There’s also a lot of dehumanizing and degradation that I see those types engaging in, beyond the typical “slut” that normal people do. They want to sexually abuse and violate femboys to feel better about their own fragile masculinity.

    I’m very glad I live in a solid blue state and can go out safely, I think if I lived in a right-wing state I wouldn’t feel safe going femmode outside.

    Yes - there is a lot that has been written about the homoeroticism of fascist movements. For years, it’s been a meme that “traps aren’t gay.” Nick Fuentes has sex with submissive puppy boys or something.

    Fascism is libidinal. The Nazis who tortured gay men in concentration camps were also very eager to have sex with them. It goes back to Roman or even Bronze Age sexual mores, where sex is an act of aggression and as long as the “superior” is in the penetrative role, then it is okay.

    They definitely are, although the most fetishized thing by them is black bulls cucking white men. Seems easy enough to see their criteria is things that flare up their enormous sexual insecurity. Femboys stuff fits that criteria for some of them.

    This is absolutely a real trend suppted by data

    https://lawsuit.org/general-law/republicans-have-an-obsession-with-transgender-pornography/

    https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/pornhub-reports-explosion-searches-transgender-194508061.html

    Conservative areas are more religious, and Christianity uses sexual shame and repression as a control mechanism. A trans attracted Christian is trained to hate them but still think trans people are attractive.

    Yeah for sure lol. It’s kinda the end level of misogyny + toxic competive masculinity + extreme hetero sexual ideation. What else comes from that combo than “forcing weaker men to replace the role of women for your own desires”?

    They’re about as fetishized as cuckolding is in right wing circles. The way those dorks toss that term around tells me enough to know that a lot of them are harboring a deep-seated desire to watch some dude rail their wives like they never could.

    I think femininity itself is the more fetishized component, so it just means the femboy is successfully femming.

    Especially when you consider how right wingers tend to interpret gender roles.

    I think this is true for a lot of prejudices. Pron sites have released data showing deep red states where one might imagine more racist people live searching for interracial videos.
