Transmaxxing

Transmaxxing refers to men who transition gender (MtF) in order to obtain personal, social and legal benefits associated with being female. The phenomenon appeared many years before the term was coined, and while it has recently gained some interest in the incel community, its application is far broader than that.

Urban Dictionary defines transmaxxing simply as, “Transitioning from male to female for personal gain.” Based on this broad definition, the following applies: 1. transmaxxing cannot be reduced to an incel activity, nor to a proclivity of gay men as some have proposed, nor to any other single demographic. 2. It never or rarely applies to cases of female-to-male transition which are considered to involve less 'quality of life' gain by comparison. 3. Transmaxxing isn’t based on the clichéd explanation that the individual is “a female trapped inside a man’s body,” nor that he “has always felt like a woman.” 4. The only premise of transmaxxing is the undergoing of a technical transition for the sake of securing a range of benefits associated with female identification.

Practice of transmaxxing

Transmaxxers don’t need to wear lipstick, put on a dress, or engage in other performative gestures typically associate with transwomen. Further, transmaxxer identification doesn't require a renunciation of traits referred to as masculine. All it requires is a technical change either on a legal paper, or in some countries by verbal statement, and all the boons of female privilege become available for the transmaxxer’s enjoyment.

While the change of gender may appear cynical or inauthentic, we can say that transmaxxers GENUINELY identify with an internal sense of privilege, esteem, status, deservingness, dignity, worth, purity, beauty and social value that we call “feminine.” The degree to which a transmaxxer genuinely identifies with these “female” things, such femininity is integral to his sense of self.
