I could get behind these kinds of plots. I have no objection to them deciding they’re happier as their new gender, but I also have no problem with the character exploring further, playing around with various forms of gender expression, until they find something that feels right to them.

My fear when it comes to genderswap fics is that the male-to-female swaps would result in the newly changed character embodying all the worst femmey stereotypes. They can decide that they actually enjoy traditionally feminine activities like wearing dresses, but please, please, don’t turn them into a complete caricature of femininity.

It’s one of the reasons I take a dim view of MPreg fics. Unless the person involved is a trans man, it feels like a reiteration of all the worst stereotypes about relationships where you can’t have one without someone playing the part of “the woman.” Nope, two men can’t just love, support each other, and make a life together without one of them being the Strong Masculine Male™️ and the other playing the Weak, Womanly, Female™️.
