Is it possible for transwomen to be autoandrophilic?
Pretty much the only thing my attempt at bihacking has conclusively done is made me find testosterone-typical musculature attractive. Until then, I was not attracted to myself at all (or even to a feminine mental image of myself) and confused by the idea of being attracted to oneself.
However, I now find my muscles attractive and have been known to leer at myself in the mirror when I wear tight tops. This has also caused me to manifest a desire for supplements and a gym subscription.
This is certainly not enough to affect my desire to transition and, if antiandrogens nuke my muscle mass and give me cisfemale-typical strength, I’ll be annoyed but accept it. So, like, auto[gender]philia seems to lose out to dysphoria in deciding whether to transition; as I definitely don’t have autogynephilic feelings while I might have autoandrophilic feelings.
But this is honestly pretty weird and I’ve never heard of it happening to other people. Are there other transpeople who are into the idea of having their birth-sex’s characteristics but transition anyway?
(PS: if someone can figure out how to make my natural steroid-production-system hit my muscles and nothing else, that would be really great.)
(PPS: This is relevant to @transgirlkyloren‘s interests.)

Yo! I was writing about this recently - I think I might be autogynephilic, as a trans chap. I definitely enjoy Being A...
