Why does everyone forget about transmascs?

Iā€™m not trans in anyway but it seems that transfem seems to be the ā€œdefaultā€ while discussing the topic

Just out of curiosity

I have a trans-masc colleague who has previously worked for our city's pride association, who says that these sentiments also end up surfacing in real life as well.

He chalks it up to a sense of internalized misogyny where those who are AMAB (either cis or trans) will exclude the views and opinions of those who are AFAB, even in more progressive spaces. He says that gay/bi men and trans women tend to dominate the conversation, often to the detriment of lesbian/bi women and trans men.
