A sexual fetish or paraphilia common among trans women, consisting of a persistent desire to have her authentic identity validated during sexual activity.

Symptoms include positive attitudes towards sex, improved personal hygiene, and augmented self-discipline, especially with respect to diet and exercise. Known risk factors are a desire to cope with a bad situation, affinity for lesbian porn, and an inability to feel present during sex unless presenting as a woman. If you or someone you know exhibits these qualities, they may be completely normal women whose behaviors are pathologized by a bigoted, sex-negative public and should be given titty skittles and headpats.

Oftentimes, the disease begins when the trans woman, horribly abused throughout childhood for her feminine tendencies, nevertheless holds on to a tiny sliver of her true self, a single ray of hope to guide her in a hostile world until she can jump through the hoops necessary to receive treatment. As the disease progresses, the trans woman will usually identify as a crossdresser for a period of time, mostly because of gatekeeping, transmisogyny, and internalized transphobia, before accepting herself and beginning to medically transition.

Long-term, autogynephilia is associated with software engineering, sex work, kink, polyamory, secretly continuing to watch sissy porn, and a goth phase which may resolve in 5 year.
Autogynephilia is a normal phase of a trans lesbian's sexual development.

Hey Ray Blanchard, did you hear that your theory of autogynephilia is sexist and transphobic, and that cis women respond similarly when administered your survey?

A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.

Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:

* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic
"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s
