>>97546159I think it's a result of his extremely warped ideas on gender and having nobody to discuss how he actually feels with (mostly due to himself) that he thinks he would like to be a woman and it would be better for his life.
He idolises women and puts them on an incredibly high pedestal (likely a result of desperation + intake of "girl power" media), take a look at how he treats women and how he seems to forgive the female trolls yet hate the male ones so much. Similarly he has a weird "stepford wives" view of femininity where all women like to do is go shopping and do stereotypical "girly" things like have sleepovers or singing contests. It's weird and shows his lack of understanding of the world.
On the other side of the coin he hates men, probably because he was bullied by them in highschool and felt jealous when they got girlfriends but it's just an unhealthy hatred that has fermented over the years into hating masculinity. I mean, he states how he hates all men on the planet apart from his own relatives. He also seems to really hate gay people, presumably because it's a relationship with 2 masculine elements, and seems to think all the trolls that have gone after him were gay. He even has that bizarre arc in his comic where he feels the need to wipe out gayness. I think he is still homophobic and misandristic given how he tries to avoid mentioning gay people in his retarded "lgbt" things, but is willing to pay lip service to appear like a better person to groups he wants to join (lesbians, mostly).
I don't think he is transexual and thinks he was born in the wrong body but would simply prefer to be a woman because of how great women are and how much he hates men.
