My brother is a nerd and he is also a trans woman. For my brother, I believe the first reason he went in this direction was because of insecurities. Being trans give him a badge, makes him immediately cool in some crowds, protected him from being held accountable, and was easily used as a crutch. He was confused and unsure how to live in a world that expected him to be masculine, to step up and get a job and be a man... He feared that, the pressure and societal standards. Being a nerd and finding other nerds to fit in with who also felt confused about who they were, they get community right away and they got power. The nerds are definitely trans now, anime, autism, fear, power, fetish, there are a lot of things that got us here for sure. The scary reality is that as a trans woman my brother is struggling, as a young person before transition he was finally starting to face his fears and find his place… I was extremely supportive in the beginning, I'm a liberal Ive always been pro live your life however you want..after seeing my brothers process and my friends and my cousins… now I feel very different. The contagion has been strong.
