It's interesting to me that the fiber arts (knitting, crocheting, sewing etc.) are highly female-dominated, yet I've never seen MtFs expressing interest in them. In fact, they're the most gendered activities I can think of -- Ravelry's user base is over 90% female. Yet MtFs don't gravitate to them, despite lady brains that supposedly drive them towards "feminine gender expression."

Why is that? My theory is that these activities have nothing to do with transforming oneself into a beautiful and/or fuckable object and are not public performances, so they have no value to the narcissist.
