"A high-intensity life in a hypermasculine culture produces a number of male veterans like Shupe who display classic autogynephilia. They are men for whom no real woman could ever be as feminine as the woman they imagine themselves to be."

Could it be that Shupe had AGP ideation all along, perhaps since puberty, but that something about the "hypermasculine culture" caused Shupe to identify as a woman for the first time? Maybe Shupe was fixated on the fantasy that he was a woman who was being had sexually by one of those hypermasculine men.

I'm dead-set against Trump and MAGA, but if Trump were looking to realize his dream of court-martialing someone, there could be no more deserving a subject than that ugliest and most preposterous man in a dress, Richard "Rachel" Levine.
