Why are men more mentally ill than women when it comes to sexuality?

[Anonymous]

There seems to be more gay men than lesbian women. There seems to be more trans women than trans men. For example, trans women are 1 in every 30,000 people, whereas trans men are estimated at 1 in every 100,000 people. There is even many, many men that love pre-op trans women. So, what makes men this way?

I don’t think it’s nearly as black and white as you make it out to be. Far more women report being bisexual while there are more strictly gay males. There are more trans women than men and it seems there isn’t a very good reason as to why. It could possibly be a genetic thing or something. 95% of men say they’re straight and 93% say they’re mostly straight if that option is given. 93% of women say they’re straight but if mostly straight is an option it drops to 80%. So 🤷🏾‍♂️

To be fair, lesbians catch a lot more social stigma than gay men do. Also, I don't know if this is true for anyone else, but most of the lesbians that I know actually switched over to being trans in the last few years.

Assuming that my observation is true for the greater society, it's possible that women who once called themselves lesbians have converted to being trans for social acceptance reasons.

There are direct statistics about there being more MTF trans “women” then vice versa. I might agree with you on that one.

But assuming there are more gay men then gay women, where the hell did you come up with that notion? The biggest category of LGBT plus half the alphabet people are bisexual women by far.

I don’t consider bisexuality as much of an illness.

I never said it was. But I read statistics that bi women are by far the number one category.

Also I’ve met women who have fooled around with other women on numerous occasions. Once you cross that line (especially when you cross it sober). You cross that line

They aren't. I wouldn't classify any of that as sexually mentally ill.
Though I have to agree that disphoria is a mental illness, I just wouldn't class it as sexual, it's an identity issue, like anorexia.
