How/why is that? How do femboys pass for women so much more easily than troon MtF's?
Oh, that's an easy answer. Femboys are a tightly defined group based on appearance, troons aren't.
All a troon has to do to be a troon is to
say they're transgender and put on an ill-fitting dress. The definition is entirely about self-identification and being a lolcow. Anyone can be a troon if they want, and they take a perverse glee in being "validated" while at the same time loudly insisting that
"it's not sexual!!!".
A trap, on the other hand, has to have won the genetic lottery in the first place order to have a skinny build and soft features,
and the average attention whore femboy spends a lot of time every day maintaining that look. They have to work out enough to keep a good-looking ass but not so much to look manly. They have to shave and wax frequently. They have to learn how to apply makeup and photo filters that soften their features (as opposed to shotgunning it like troons do). They have to care heavily about their appearance because the entire
definition of a trap requires a very specific look, and if he can't maintain it he's not even going to post any pictures. On top of that, the average trap will readily admit that he's doing it for sexual gratification. It's a kink they put a lot of work into, and once they age far enough they can't maintain it, they abandon it.
So, in short, you
can't be a femboy if you have a chad jawline or a lazy 5 o'clock shadow or a gut or enough body hair a baby chimpanzee could cling on to you for easy transport.
If a femboy doesn't look like a girl, then he's not a femboy.
