   If you, a man, make a female character in a game (with no tactical advantages for it), you are a virtual troon. Let me explain:
   
   Yes, I know the "rather stare at a woman's ass" argument, and yes, I know you aren't basing the character off of your irl self. My reasoning is simple. You play the game and immerse yourself as said character(in most games). You mostly make decisions for yourself that you want to see, say things that you want to say (except rare choices where you cant). You are viewing this world through the eyes of the mc, whos acting as a surrogate for you. To play as a man would be the natural choice. To play a woman, you put your mind and personality through that of a female character. Same mind in a different shell. Very similar to troons who use a female character as a pfp. They pose as that character and want you to see them as it. Same with the game character, you want to be perceived by either npc or other players, as a woman. Hence, you are a virtual troon.

     @Elliptica Pretty sure women troon out to feel more independent, and have "more power" in a "man's society". They dont realize that men's "power over women" in society has been gone for a long ass time now, and that with said "power" is way more societal responsibility. Now that the power is gone, men are still held to the old standards. Once women realize how fucked it is after trooning out, lots of them suicide or detrans

     @BigDawg869789 I have a theory that character creation in video games causes transgenderism and autogynophilia. It lines up with what they say their favorite video games are. It's why so many troons are gamers.
     
     What's funny about this to me is troons push to make everything asexual, meaning that chances of explicit trannyisms might actually decrease the number of trannies created. No longer asking are you a boy or a girl, but asking you to pick "body types" effective neuters the choice. Removing buffs and debuffs for sexes (females are weak but might be better at magic, and vice versa) or removing sex specific plots or items removes the reason to even try to role play as a different sex.
     
     It's like a cycle. Videogames creates troons, troons neuter videogames, no more troons.

     @Elliptica I think stuff like autogynophilia is natural while growing up, as those early years thought you have but leave behind growing up, but jewish influence in media that glorifies it causes it to stay and fester into an addiction (aka transgenderism). Honestly we could do without a female option in game's CC. Maybe only 100 women worldwide genuinely interested in the games for personal enjoyment, the rest of the women playing games like that are twitch whores

     @BigDawg869789 Yep. Lots of angst growing up. Men want to feel valued and needed (making females more appealing), women want something like the opposite of that. But this angst gets encouraged.

     That's a part of it. The other part is difficult for me to explain well. Women change more than men during puberty, and get treated differently after that (by both men and other women). I don't think men go through something as drastic as that, both socially and physically. Women also become more cliquish and tribal around the time. And then you can add the anti-male (and frankly anti-female) propaganda we get inundated with in both the media and school. It isn't universal, but there is a reason more girls troon out than men.

     @BigDawg869789 I literally just pick whatever I want. When I played some old UO clones decades ago, the female characters would have actual hair model choices instead of "bald or lump of short shag. Getting cool glowing colors on your hair looked stupid when bald (just an aura) or less prominent on the dude. This was like in between Diablo and D2 era when games didn't have the polycounts of today and before sexy female* and reactionary butter troll female was in the mix. I guess today I definitely wouldn't ever do it, but I also don't make a big deal about it because troons literally weren't a thing when I was into gaming.
