    I’m sorry to come across as ignorant, but exactly is a “chaser”? Googling “femcel chaser” didn’t really…clarify anything…

      It refers to people who “chase” after trans people, but are only interested in the trans part (and usually only sexually) and not the actual person. It’s very objectifying.

        Oh…oh no. We don’t need that energy in our lives, friends

        (thank you for the explanation!)

          And for additional context, femcel communities often have lots of trans women in them, probably something about trans people being stigmatized, perceived as ugly, etc. - we are seen as losers, have difficulty finding sexual partners, generally struggle with mental health, and so are natural candidates for identifying with femcels.

      Someone already gave you a good answer but I thought I’d chime in with some word association–its the same vibe as someone with a fetish for a certain race
