why do you call yourself an autogynephile? are you reclaiming it as a slur, or do you believe in blanchards description of autogynephilia?
hello ! for this i won't use my tq because that is a serious question,,!
i do not believe in blanchards description of autogynephilia because it do not fully fit me and i find it to be quite transphobic,, i don't use the term autogynephile in the transvestic disorder / autogynephile way. but i do fit the behavioral & physiologic autogynephilia BUT i do not overall agree w / blanchard description of autogynephilia
i am not fully reclaiming the term either,, i used to describe myself w / it when i though i was just a men which well is not the case because i'm trans-fem,,! but i feel like that my arousal that is caused by myself ( a male ) being in feminine clothes / being feminine is paraphilic - but you could say that in a way i am indeed reclaiming the term,,! for me it's just more being in feminine clothes and acting feminine causing me arousal that is autogynephilic so i call myself an autogynephile.
i'm sorry if my answer is quite confused and messy but this kind of stuff is quite hard to explain

reddit banned subs r/itsafetish that documented proof of the rampant Autogynephilia in the trans community and r/terfisalur where TRAs harrassed women calling us terms for simply voicing our opinions but openly fosters a sub called r/TERFisafetish.  Terfs fetishizing the idea of who is and isn't a woman?? Being a woman isn't a psychology, its physiology. Accusing us of fetishising troons 🤢 🤮

2/2 Also it should be understood, like there are several different factors feeding into dysphoria, there are different forms of autogynephilia too. There's physiological, when you see trans women stealing used menstrual products to simulate a period or demanding medications to be able to produce breast milk, and there's also behavioral, when they eroticize being treated like a woman, whether that's being dressed up by a female friend or being the only man in a group of women doing a non-sexual activity like knitting. So it is possible to be an autogynephile without participated in sexual activity. That's not to say this is the case for your asexual male partner, don't worry, I don't know them and won't pass judgment. But asexuality is often a misunderstanding of different sexual preferences or inclinations towards more esoteric kinks and fetishes which replace normal human intimacy. That may not be the case with you two at all. But that doesn't mean a seeming asexual partner isn't seeking nonphysical sexual gratification.
My girlfriend has no sexual fetishes. The idea of such a thing disgusts her. She doesn't seek sexual gratification for any reason and as far as I know hasn't had an orgasm in years, aside from wet dreams. (Please don't call her a male, she hates being associated with them)
Also... wait, did you say that trans women steal period products and use them for sexual reasons?! Uhm... I don't think I've ever met a trans person who does ANYTHING similar to that, and I know an awful lot of trans people. If that does happen, well... yeah that'd be kind of fucked up 0.0

Autogynephilia
Autogynephilia is defined as a male's propensity to be sexually aroused by the thought of himself as a female. It is the paraphilia that is theorized to underlie transvestism and some forms of male-to-female transsexualism.
There are four different types of autogynephilia which may occur completely, partially, or in combination with other types (complete or partial):
Transvestic autogynephilia: arousal to the act or fantasy of wearing typically feminine clothing (this is what people often mean when they talk about autogynephilia, but it is much more nuanced);
Behavioral autogynephilia: arousal to the act or fantasy of doing something regarded as feminine, also covers ‘interpersonal autogynephilia’;
Physiologic autogynephilia: arousal to fantasies of body functions specific to people regarded as female (there’s some way-out stuff on the Internet of males getting a kick from pretending to be pregnant); and
Anatomic autogynephilia: arousal to the fantasy of having a normative woman’s body, or parts of one (breasts are a common fantasy, often the autogynephile will want breasts but to keep his penis and testicles, this is an instance of ‘partial autogynephilia’).
