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.

Recent examples

Equador

René Salinas Ramos is an Equadorian "transmaxxer-woman." Ramos, who works as a journalist, was born male. Ramos experienced discrimination against men in the Ecuadorian family court system and legally changed her gender to female in late 2022. Ramos hopes now that the courts will treat her more fairly and that she can gain custody of her children.[6]

Switzerland

In Switzerland a man has exploited an administrative loophole and formally transmaxxed his gender to female in order to retire a year earlier. Swiss rules enable any Swiss resident with the “intimate conviction” that they do not belong to the sex they are registered as in the civil status register can apply to change their gender, in addition to their first name, for just 75 Swiss francs (€72). The unnamed man from Lucerne successfully applied to transmax his gender so that he could receive his state pension at the Swiss retirement age for women of 64, a year earlier than men.[7][8]

Germany

In Germany a self-identified transmaxxer named Tina has undergone medical transition to reap various sexual and social advantages over her former existence as an 'incel,' and claims also to be generally treated better by "the system." Such advantages included being successfully admitted to attend a female-only university class, with Tina adding that "there's a government quota that needs to be met in Germany regarding women's employment, and obviously I count as a woman legally, so I will have a easier time finding a job."[9]

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.

Another strategy chosen by some transmaxxers is to medically transition, based in the rationale that the stronger appearance of being female brings even more benefits than legal advantages alone.

While the change of gender may appear cynical or inauthentic, transmaxxers appear to genuinely identify with an internal sense of privilege, esteem, status, deservingness, dignity, worth, purity, beauty and social value that society refers to as “feminine.” The degree to which a transmaxxer genuinely identifies with these “feminine” things, such femininity is held as integral to his sense of self.[10]
