Anyone else see so many pictures of pretty women that it makes them want to transition? (lemmy.world)

My social media algorithms show me so many cool cosplayers, tomboys, pretty girls in a variety of nice clothes, alt girls, fairies with elf ears but never any attractive men doing anything cool or stylish or interesting that it just feels so lame being a guy.

I never see any attractive men (im bi) with interesting style or clothes or looking attractive in cosplay or being artistic and hot. Are dudes just so boring with their looks or is my algorithm just too skewed towards women?

It makes me feel like crossdressing, so I do. Occasionally I see an outfit that needs at least B cups to work (usually something with a boob window) and it makes me feel jealous I don't have that.

But I'm with you, I completely disagree with the comment saying men's fashion is interesting if you look for it. It's not, the only forms of men's fashion that are interesting are the forms that society has labeled "feminine." Going into a store and seeing all the men's clothes in neutrals and actual variety in the women's cemented my interest in crossdressing.

There are fun colors in men's clothing if you look in the right places. Of course if you walk into a popular store you'll see popular style choices, and neutral colors and boxy shapes are popular in menswear. That doesn't mean other styles don't exist. There might not be a physical store near you with fun-colored menswear, so you might need to check online.
