Why do we love some obviously male transwomen and hate others?

There are trans women who we absolutely adore. Both fictional and real. It is easy to say that we love and accept transwomen who look like women, act like women, and think like women, but then there are transwomen who are obviously biologically male, some rocking a full beard, and we adore them, too. To be fair, the correct term for these people is probably transvestite rather than transwoman, but nonetheless, we love some of them, whatever the term, while others are loathsome. Why?

Some transpeople use the transumbrella as a means to cause a scene. They love the power over the emotions of others, and they use it to cause upset.

Ironically, the transpeople we love also love their power over others’ emotions. They use that to make others feel energized, delighted, entertained, flirted with, and uplifted. They want to make others feel great, not at their own expense but with their help and ability to uplift others’ moods just by being there. This is the highest of social human goals: “I want my presence to uplift and brighten up others’ day.” The people who manage this, we love; those who do the opposite, we dislike.

That is the difference.
