I don't think my friend should transition FTM

>I don't think he'll be able to handle life as a man
lol why not. life for humans in general is kinda cushy these days

Let the little oversensitive boy do his shit, stop mothering people, patronizing behavior is what get those people like that in the first place

He doesn't have a job (can't drive, lives with parents, anxiety) so can't go to a gym. He's also mentioned being scared of cis men when they're violent/angry.
>not your decision
I know that people transition even if others try to convince them otherwise, I just don't think he understands the reality of transitioning. Not in a "hrt gives you 4349847 diseases" way, but I don't think he understands that being a man isn't easy
>autism
He's self-diagnosed as autistic but I think he might be.
He mentioned being scared of it at first, then got over his fear and is now trying to find a way to get on T. He brings it up sometimes like
>when I get on T, I'll have a beard like (character)
>when I get on T, I'll grow out my hair
Just how sensitive he is. He's already had breakdowns from seeing online transphobia or overhearing people being transphobic in real life. I don't think he'll react better if that transphobia is directed towards him, or if he's assumed to be a cis man and is then expected to act like one. Feminine men (which he wants to be) are treated like shit.

Be blunt with him, just tell him what you genuinely think and let he deal with it, seriously

sounds like the average twitter trender. best thing you could do for him is tell him to stop getting involved with trans shit online, usually people like that have just been memed into it, and will end up as detransitioners

many twitter detransers talk about being autistic. hmm

Wtf. How is someone like that supposed to survive in the real world

RWDS stands for right wing death squad

frail and introverted cis men do exist, either he troons out and feels slightly more comfortable with himself or has to live the pathetic life of a repper. as long as you stay stealth to him any advice that sounds like steering him away from his desires is gonna be shrugged off, unless you open up to him about your past and have a serious discussion about the ins and outs of dysphoria and the complexities of transition

Idk how this person functions or why you're friends with them

It's gonna be a hard convo to have for sure. Emphasize that you're not trying to scare them away from transitioning, just say that you're concerned about their wellbeing while they transition.

Hell, maybe T can sort out his mental issues and he can be a well adjusted gay dude
