Re: A little bit of process goes a long way
I whole-heartedly agree with the above sentiments. I'm utterly baffled by immobilizing transformations- particularly giant testicles. Youch!
My kinks are all about people getting to look very good, and have a lot of fun doing it. When transformation supersedes the ability to live a "normal" life, things have gone too far.
This sort of shows up in TG as well, as there's often an over-the-top emphasis on being stereotypically feminine. You're a girl now, and that means everything you own is going to be pink! You're going to be absurdly passive, soft spoken, and cry a lot. You'll be physically weak. Your hair will be long, your breasts will be huge, and your makeup will be thickly applied! You'll not only be strongly heterosexual, but you'll also be most attracted to stereotypically masculine men, in spite of them all being portrayed as assholes. You're going to be humiliated by your sexual impulses and yet completely unable to control them.
Sometimes certain elements of that can be fun, I'll readily admit. But more often then not authors take it way too far. It even shows up in FtM- very often a girl turned into a guy immediately becomes a jerk.
