You can find further details on how the survey was conducted here (yes I was drunk the whole time). 158 people responded yes or maybe. Noticed the survey here recently and wanted to share.

I’m pissed about this. On the survey I did, there are even less than that. There were more cis women than binary trans men in the results. It’s ridiculous and is a problem that needs fixing.
c/FTM is miniscule in size compared to MTF. Why would trans men want to be here if there’s hardly any on here? I say this as a trans man myself.
It’s unfortunate but it’s how it is. i wouldn’t really know where the online trans man spaces are, but I’ve known more trans masc individuals irl vs trans femmes.
I’ve heard there’s bigger communities on tumblr, tiktok, and twitter. I do wonder if lemmy could grow by reaching out to these spaces, but I also know how hostile some social media sites are to other forms of social media.
Tumblr does have a sizable portion of trans men. Reddit does too. I can’t speak for Twitter and tiktok because I don’t use them. That’s a good idea for reaching out to those platforms.
I’d be weary to reach out to Twitter and tiktok for fear of attracting too many trolls. They seem like worse cesspools than Tumblr and reddit at the moment, especially Twitter.
Very true, recruiting from those two would take quite a bit of vetting at first.
And Instagram…there’s so much transphobia on there. So much transphobia. Sometimes it’s on posts that have nothing to do with being trans. I don’t even consume trans content on there and it still manages to show up from time to time.
