And with the totally batshit laws in place in Germany, he’ll probably win.

When your material reality is a 'concept' in a bloke's head.....

Well. Head and other parts.

I was thinking along the same lines recently. Heavy and long term cosmetic surgery on female celebrities is normalising a "woman's" face that is mostly synthetic, (un)natural for either sex and achieveable by either sex. (It's kind of like Pete Burns' post surgery face).

Many of the go-to trans women celebrities (the fashion/media ones not the rent-a-TRA ones) don't look like natural women but they do look like this surgically created "female" face, and if that face is normalised trans women will seem more and more "female", at least in the media where their comparators are equally surgically adjusted.

Which reminds me of this article:

Well, fashion has never worked for real women, where you need a degree in 3D geometry to make it fit. They don't like us.

I find myself using g a new sort of aesthetic judgement about looks and fashion/ looking beautiful: “Does it look at all like drag?”

Fish lips and long hair on women older than about 16 looks like that or porn now.

There was a real phase on YouTube and other video based social media, for women doing make up deliberately to create drag queen bone structures. I watched a lot of these with teen niece and she really understood where the trend came from. If you look at the same women now, the hard sculpting has gone and there's way more working with the female facial structure.
I still see the odd girl on the street with brown diagonal lines from the bottom of her ear to the edge of her mouth (cheekbones from the front, dirty face from the side), but it's definitely going. Thank goodness. It was mental.
Of course, it turned out that one of the biggest influences on this trend according to niece is a Dutch makeup artist called Nikki, who came out as trans a few years ago. So Nikki had male bone structure, and was working (beautifully, very talented individual) with that.

Edited for terrible spelling

An acquaintance once posted one of those "can you tell the difference" things with photos of drag acts, transwomen, and actual women with surgery/inch-thick make up.

I did point out that all of them were caricatures.
