Most people know very little of it as its all been kept fairly hushed until recently. And even now its not being publicized well at all. just the odd report of transacticists physically attacking people who oppose parts of the ideology, and narcissistic arseholes like Travis who feel 'neither male nor female' and expect to change with teen girls because of this :S

This is no longer about 'born in the wrong body'. To even say the phrase 'born in the wrong body' is hugely transphobic apparently.

A particularly virulent trans youtuber called Riley Dennis said something like "I'm not MtF, I was never male, i've always been a transwoman"

Rubbish like that just doesn't help transpeople, and even if we accept that traps have "always been" their preferred gender, to avoid shorthand like mtf or ftm is just pointless.
