Oh yeah, a lot of it is definitely a reaction to our culture, and a lot is insecurity, too. Unfortunately, especially for newly-transitioning guys, its easy to confuse acting masculine with dudebro douchebag behavior, because 'masculinity' is actually a lot more subtle than 'drink beer, watch football, hate women'. But this sort of thing can make trans* spaces seem like very unsafe and unwelcoming places to people who aren't okay with that kind of posturing. (And there are lots of reasons beyond just 'I don't like sexism', like not wanting to have surgery, not wanting to transition, being a trans person without body dysphoria, etc.)

It's cool! Its a discussion that needs to be had, after all! :D
