I know its easy to point the finger and wiggle away but there's also something in constructive criticism that is much more..well constructive. I really enjoy what you’ve said here.

I would laugh at the preposterous notion that trans men are inherently masculine, because a good portion are not masculine. Our maleness defines us, not our masculinity. And yet, I am assumed to be masculine by many in the queer community because I was assigned female at birth. This list only serves to reinforce this notion that masculinity plus female = trans. Its misleading, and I often get the feeling that lesbians only like trans men because of this erroneous assumption that we're some variant of female masculinity. I mean, let's face it, this list was put here to ogle and fantasize about masculine female-assigned trans people, was it not? Communities respect other people in it, but I don't feel respected at all by lists like this. In fact, I feel more oppressed by having to defend my position and educate you. When every negative comment is met with "it's all in good fun", one gets the feeling that it doesn't matter what objections you hear. Ogle away, but expect to be criticized when your good intentions accidently erase people's identities. I don’t think you understood my point.

I'm a girl who likes girls and sometimes boys too and doesn't really fit into any prescribed gender identities but if you found a photo of me in male drag and included me in your gay nelly queer trans man gallery, i would laugh, because it would be funny, because i am not those things, and also just FYI i don't have a penis (just a strap-on!) but i wouldn't laugh in your face, because that would be rude. people shouldn't laugh in other people's faces! i would just think it was cute that you thought i was cute and liked my photo. i probably wouldn't even correct you. i'd just think, "oh, what a wonderful world" and then go make a sandwich with lady gaga Well, all of these photos came from tumblrs dedicated to genderfuckers, genderqueers or transmen or from photography sets of transpeople (defined as such by the photographers), and sure some mislabeling happens, but it’s an innocent mistake, and really though, who cares?!

That said, I'm a big fan of snark and all, but it's fairly useless in honest discussions where people are genuinely trying to understand and be understood.

But here are female-assigned trans people all grouped together as if we're all "fucking with gender" and "trans masculine". I'm a gay nelly queer trans man and if you included me in your stud gallery, I'd laugh in your face, because I'm not masculine. Oh, wait, I get it, they all have vaginas... that's why we're all grouped together. (sarcasm) Not all trans men are masculine and not all trans women are feminine.
