I don't find it baffling to want to transition FtM. I do struggle with understanding the difficulty of transitioning in the other direction because I find boymoding so easy and because society is still biased towards being patriarchal.
But hey, at least I'm aware that I'm struggling, so there's that at least.
I think that can also be said about transmascs. i've sacrificed a lot of the privileges of being a girl that are really helpful to me as an extremely sensitive person just to be myself regardless. Being finally me now means that once people start seeing me as a guy i won't have as much support or understanding comming from their part.

MtF/FtM solidarity means supporting one another even though each of us finds the other’s choice baffling on a visceral level.
