@Aging-Chad Nice one! I think its a power move to 'transition' to being a woman, by simply declaring that you are a woman and doing nothing else. Here in the UK, you can do that. I personally know the CEO of a trading firm that has about 600 guys on the desks, and they are getting hassled because of the gender pay gap (they have about 4 women on reception). I told him to simply transition at work - all that is required is for him to tell his HR dept that he is now a woman. He's the highest paid, so that will resolve everything.

If I were a young man and still gaming, I would by very curious to drop into the convo while gaming liberal women that I was a woman, esp if I was at the mid point or slightly beyond half way into her pants, and esp if she was a bit of a SJW (most young women are). It's a power move. She would be able to 'support the sisterhood' by letting me bone her. If she didn't, she would be 'transphobic'. The only way out would be for her to let me get jiggy with it.

I used to know a guy that was a model and one of his favourite methods of pulling was to go to gay bars and game the straight women there (there's always a few, and nobody hits on them). He never mentioned that he was straight and he'd slowly let on that he might be willing to switch teams, because they were so exceptional.

@lurkerhasarisen sending you a virtual pint!

when you say you wonder about those numbers, they are taken from the Census - which is a one a decade research project that cost just over £1bn - and it works by surveying every single household in the UK. So its the best data that we have.

Personally, I'm thrilled that so many are coming out as trans.

Have you noticed how the entire focus is on MAB women, and they basically ignore FAB men? That's very revealing. The culture wars SJW's don't give a shit about FAB men, because women don't any extra privileges when they 'transition to being a man' (cut their tits off and take steroids). Men don't' feel threatened by FAB men, because we're totally at peace with being who we are. We don't feel that our place in society is threatened by a few women who wake up one morning and decide that because they would prefer to be a man, that this is somehow evidence that they actually are a man (feelings more important than reality).

It's too bad that everyone has to be anonymous for our own safety: my wife and I were in the UK recently. Maybe we could have tipped a pint.

As for me, I have to wonder about those numbers. We have the same thing here in the colonies: astronomical percentages of what I call "Alphabet people" (LGBTQIAAQWERTY+++). I remember when they were saying it was 10% based on a bogus study of male prisoners (with no access to women), and legitimate researchers fact-checked them and said it was about 1%. But in some "progressive" departments of American colleges it's close to half.

10%.... those are rookie numbers today. (There used to be a US cable network called "10%" that only carried "gay" programming... like BET for homos.)

I wonder how much is conditioning to actually believe that, and how much of it is people trying to access privileges. Among those people, the guys win big. All you have to do to get a full ride athletic scharship is be better than a bunch of high school girls, but the girls are doomed to disappointment when they discover that their whole belief system is based on the Apex Fallacy. There's no "male privilege" for short, effeminate dudes.

@lurkerhasarisen sorry my friend, I didn't notice that it was a rhetorical question. I'm guessing that its not the small number of male at birth women (MABW) that is of note, its what it means, in a legal sense. What it means is 'check mate' to the femocracy. We can now force a realignment towards equality and if the feminazis resist, we have the perfect ace up our sleeves - we can just say 'oooh, why are you so transphobic? that's a hate crime!'

It exposes the feminazis for what they are - female supremacists and sexists.

And btw, its not such a small number. There was a census here in the UK recently and the number of self declared 'trans' people was about 260k out of a population of 67m. That's quite a number. It's enough to make them politically powerful.

The trans question throws a huge spanner in the works of Project Femocracy. If we can declare as women, then women lose the power to discriminate against men. If they don't like this, then they're transphobic.

Conflict creates unusual allies. Personally, I'm very pro-trans.

@Lone_Ranger

Consider this case study -

Imagine...

Not really a case study when it's a thought experiment in a hypothetical scenario :P

But yes, I'm familiar with the 80/20 rule aka Pareto Principle, as well as the OK Cupid study (actual study).

The problems with your thought experiment:

• women value sex differently from men. Men want sex, and want it badly. Women want it too, but nowhere near as much as we do. They value sex more for what sex with men gains them from men.

• IRL, they almost always hold out hope that giving sex to a man will lead to them getting what they want in return. It isn't always necessarily marriage or commitment, but usually at least time, attention, resources, etc. etc. This is their covert contract, to use NMMNG terminology. Or, as my good buddy @lurkerhasarisen likes to say, they deposit sex tokens and hope a relationship falls out.

• telling those women in that thought experiment that there's no chance of anything beyond just sex, is the equivalent of telling a bunch of men "you can choose any woman to buy a bunch of shit for and listen to her jabber endlessly about her retarded emotional bullshit, but there's ZERO CHANCE of sex EVER happening".

Back to my original post to which you were replying: women's taste in men is nowhere near as varied as men's taste in women, but it is still varied. Their hormones (and estrus cycle) can change it up periodically, too.
