- It's the femboy video. My search history is an absolute hazard after researching this one. Every thing you wanted to know about Traps/Femboys and some you didn't.

In case you've been inhabiting a rock for the past few years here's the lowdown on femboys. Think of a boy....now make it fem.
If you've been into anime for any amount of time you're probably more familiar with the term Trap. Characters like Felix, Astolfo, Hideri are all examples of traps. For the unintiated the reason they're called traps is because the reveal of their gender is generally played either for comedy or shock. They "Trap" the audience into being attracted to them before revealing their gender.
This narrative device is old as dirt and by extension has a lot of examples throughout anime and other media. From my earlier examples I think its clear this cliche reached its peak over the last few years. Between Astolfo, Felix and maybe Bridget, that's like 90% of the trap memes on the internet. - Zábava

My friend found out he was bi after reading BL with me in school
🤨
Could you tell me it’s for research purposes
That's literally the plot of a BL series.

As a fellow bisexual, I can confirm that many of us discovered it because of anime femboy characters

Bro trynna see the monster
Femboys were my sort of "introduction" to being bi, which then led me to figure out that I like guys in general. Guess I gotta thank them for that.
:333
Being gay was what lead me into figuring out I was a femboy 😶
I think this is a lot of people's development
No problem :3
Ah, fun going from femboys to just straight up fuckin' dudes. What a pipeline.
As the femboys are this is a true cultural masterpiece.

Glad to see other femboys here :3
Femboys helped me realize I'm not just attracted to women, I'm attracted to femininity; and ironically, with how much more fem they have to present to pass as female, that means often I find femboys more attractive than an average woman.
and this is scary as well, how women are loosing on their own playground
@@georgechertkov4140Imo, they’re not losing since some women gain femboys. And the others don’t gotta date.
so real
I thought the same thing until I realized I like tomboys too
straight men are attracted to femininity, nobody is attracted to chromosomes
4:59 I... I feel called out and I don't why...
I'm not the femboy police 👮 - or the bi-patrol
Bro same
I just can’t explain
This is honestly why I don’t think traps are gay. I think it’s just a bit of a stretch to say that a straight guy who thinks femboys are hot is actually bisexual
it may be that good old fashioned internalised biphobia
FR ITS SO RELATABLE
Im a female and I’m obsessed with femboys
That's the best part. Whether you're a guy or a girl, traps are gay.
@@FrenchyMcToastdude CZcams shadowbanned your comment 💀
Fed comment
Ur Not real
Same
Honestly I really like this, really glad that you called attention to the actual community and it’s existence as a form of expression
as a bisexual, I can say yes you are right
I love women a lot, but femboysd, are simply delish UmU
The pp makes it better.
Im im glad to be aro and Not ace .wouldnt be Abel to enjoy femboys without sexuel attraction after all.
How can smth fictionel be soo good
@@user-ky2rk8tp5g hey! Who said we're fictional 😭
@@SA.1196 i mean i know you guys are real
@@user-ky2rk8tp5g There's more than one type of Ace.
I hope that the Trap reveal punchline never goes away. It's a joke that has never gotten old to me, with the best part of it being the reaction of the character(s) that were attracted to him. It's hilarious almost 100% of the time.
i hate that some idiot trans people are trying to ban the word trap since apparently “it implies trans people are trying to trap people” fuck them no one calls trans prople traps and if they do theyre stupid fucks and ignore them instead of banning a word that people never use in your “context”
Not just femboy Friday, everyday is femboy day
Anime femboys have made me question if I’m straight or not
Anime femboys have made me realize that I’m a gynosexual.
@@danielantony1882 gynosexual? What's that? (sorry I'm not really a specialist in anything about the LGBT community so can you please explain?)
@@maximeleninja4029 I’m not in the LGBT.
Gynosexual means someone attracted to women or femininity. Yes, that includes femboys. Femininity is not exclusive to women.
@@danielantony1882 alright thanks.
Men in real life usually don't pass enough to be traps, anime is fantasy in most regards.
i just woke up.
i was expecting that daggerfall video, but I'm not mad
Amazing music choices in this video.
Death Grips and Kerry's solo in Cyberpunk, hell yea
I'm attracted to women, and I've always liked femboys in anime, yet I have no interest in real life men, femboy or not. Though I don't feel I can openly talk about that because I don't want people assuming I am attracted to real men. I guess I wish there was more of a distinction between what you like in anime/fiction and irl
fantastic vid, though one thing of note is that the breakout event for femboys (that massive spike and enduring high) was femboy hooters
3:03 The song in the background is called Calm night for anyone interested.
How this man not more famous
A little thing called the ALGORITHM
But I'm sure he will go very far in time!
the guitar song is calm night by decaying winter if anyone needs this (its slowed down)
i dated a femboy for a year straight without realizing
also yall after 3:00 background music is calm night(decaying winter) or kenny's song instrumental(cyberpunk)
I was just recommended your channel.
Honestly in school i would have to describe my ex in a very detailed description now i just say femboy and people automatically know what i mean.
I dunno femboys in 2020 is where it started for my personal journey of discovering myself. I started crossdressing for a few months and just having fun without caring about what others might say. Than I started thinking more realistically what I as a person would care about a potential partner and turns out personality not gender because I just like both body types from Bears to petite lady's 😅. So in conclusion Love=Love not gender or body type to me I like both to be on the receiving or giving end of things if u know what I'm saying and femboys is where it started to be more open and not force myself into anything particular. So thanks Felix for letting me discover myself.
Honestly my first intro to "guy dressed as girl" was morning cartoons as a kid. It was always played off in the shiw as an awkward laugh, but I usually thought the character looked cute (I am pan btw).
As soon as I heard the death grips intro I knew this was gonna be a good video
women have been borrowing from and adapting men's styles for hundreds of years. of course tomboys, or borrowing a boyfriend's clothes, or just wearing things like a t shirt, blue jeans, and sneakers while female are beyond normalized. however human societies rarely have specific call for boys and men to be overtly feminine, and masculine norms are very often narrowly defined. this makes it very difficult for males to break the gendered mold with any degree of social acceptance. men's styles in general decade of decade change very little over time. And add to that the ever growling prevalence of the lgbtxyz movement, and any man or boy who does outwardly display any measure of what is considered traditionally feminine, and most people immediately jump to the assumption that he must be gay or trans (or something). This makes the outwardly feminine straight male a rare, and highly fetishized/ memed specimen, taken seriously by very few. (though to be fair, if a guy is wearing a maid outfit and cat ears and doing a meme dance to j pop, -- on camera or otherwise -- he's not really trying to be taken seriously.) conservative culture rejects feminine men despite accepting less than ultra feminine women, and "liberal" culture trys to insist a feminine male is anything other than a straight guy. So for a guy who simply appreciates traditionally feminine aesthetics on himself to find a place in society is very difficult. The proverbial pendulum swings agonizingly slowly for one half of the population, and swings wildly the other way far beyond reason for the other. Crazy world we live in.
I think attraction nowadays has gotten way too classified. A lot of people are always trying to figure it out or redefine what would make them gay, bi or whatever else. Attraction can’t be quantified, just as much as you can’t say “I love this person more than this person” most of the time. Just don’t be afraid to admit you like something and everything else doesn’t matter.
I discovered ( and still discovering today ) myself and my sexuality via femboy's stuff, and vtubing during the COVID period
"We’re gonna scramble some eggs" 😳I wonder if that pun was on purpose…
As the average femboy enjoyer I would like to say that liking femboys is not gay
Great video
Also feel really called out 4:59
But at the same time I know there are others like me
Yep, I'm just like you, but also, I am one. I honestly forgot how I went into this path/what did I see. I think that once you start liking Femboys you have the chance to well, become one! like I don't watch any anime. but like being this way, it just makes me really happy and just free, so ^v^
Quick question: do you feel like you specifically have an attraction to tom girls and femboys?
It's for a theory I have.
Yea, I mean, I feel attracted to that kind of characters and even irl when they look exactly like a girl but when it comes to a man-looking guy it even disgust me the idea, so I don't really know if that's bi
that thumbnail is crazy
What happened to the OGs? Where my boy 1.0s at?
I wish I had a femboy body type but even if I did everything I could I would still look more manly than feminine 😭
Bet?
Become very very thin and then you will become more feminine
allow me to introduce you to femMAN
That was a great video. I love it.
3:40 Good Cyberpunk reference. Used to listen to that song on repeat all the time!
2:24 "get it right, I'm FLOODING it in"
Wonderfully put together
As for when the trend got started... It started before TikTok existed.
i found out i was bi from felix from re:zero and now i find guys hotter than girls
If they feminine, I ain’t discriminating
As a femboy, quarantine was the thing that made us all soft, ig it was a trauma response for being in lockdown for so long
Hey, man; don’t think of it as anything bad. There’s plenty of people who like femboys, which includes me, and I will go out of my way to be honest and say that I like you, so be confident and keep your stride 🫂
@@danielantony1882 Yay :3

Wasn't traumatic for me, just gave me time and motivation to work on my body. I was kinda chunky before 2020. Grew my hair nice and long too.
I have been thinking a lot, and in 2019 realized a relationship with a transwoman who's as feminine as the kind of woman i get attracted to, would be just as nice.
In 2020 after many of those anime memes, i started to realize that it could be the same with such guys.
... So i became bi for femininity!
Ps. this isn't just for fantasy or such, this has been thought through with relationship in mind, including living together, doing bedroom stuff AND marriage, just like with a lady.
And yes, i'd give him a ring, too, of course!
Basically how i thought when i was straight, but then transladies and guys with such feminine personality included!
Yes, exactly the same style! Including handholding in public, and living together as a couple... like sharing household stuff and more than just gaming and hen... anime!
Sorry for being such nerd, that i take everything into account, haha!
You see,my noble fellow human! I agree with almost everything you said,and I also think the same, except for the part of marrying a femboy/trap/newhalf/well youget the point. The reason for this being the fact that as a Christian, I won't ever accept two biological males as a couple, THOU I have no problem in like, living together, doing bedroom stuffand such, since I recently discovered that I AM (a bad Christian.... I mean...) attracted to femininity on such a small level, that I would have a relationship with them, not marriage, nor presenting to my family as a couple, because of said Christian values and such) and I do mean it with no intention of being offensive to them, since it's just my perspective of Life, not a rule that I want someone else besides me to follow.... Also, Idiscovered my so called Bisexuallity because I was introduced to *Futanari* on an early age, and for some GOD only knows why reason, I liked it way more than I shoud've... and I am very happy to see a comment from someone whose way of thinking is close as mine almost on a personal level... THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
@@marcelopereira4407 Yeah, i'm more of a thinker than believer, with anything (many political enemies from both sides XD), and i'd ask "Why did God make feminine guys and h0m0s**uality, and not just for humans?", and i won't bother you with that question itself, but wonder why the "God made everything, and fate goes as it should go" won't be used for regular gae people ... not talking about the crazier ones, who think they gained some privilege to touch straight men unpunished and are sl00ts F-ing with many men wildly, just to get lots of Ds, but actual affection/love among 2 from same s*x.
Good luck with your love life, and if you have to, just keep it to yourself and enjoy life.
I don't hate religious people, nor do i believe in all of it (i'm atheist), i just want a better world, and some will have a better life if they're with another of their s*x.
I do understand the part where people keep themselves under control, and won't go insane of the plenty of freedom they have.
I'm an atheist, yet keep myself under control, just not as strictly as religious people do.
I do see how the ones who ab*se their freedom, have been hurting others, but also their own future.
Anyway, as i said, good luck!
And if you ever leave Christianity, or you sneakily have a BF, don't become obsessed with freedom like others have been, as that'll take you to the other xtreme, and that future's gonna look very dark and lonely.
@@marcelopereira4407 I mean, shouldn't that highlight the hypocrisy and internalized bigotry of so called "Christian values"?
Like, if I were to make a choice between accepting my own attraction which is based on consensual expressions of love and identity, and sticking to, what are ultimately, arbitrary social norms which I myself don't even fully adhere to because, let's be real, Christians sure as shit don't follow the Bible 100% (spoken both as a positive and a negative depending on context), it seems like an easy ethical / moral choice.
If you're tied to said community in a way that wouldn't make it realistic to distance yourself then I understand but, like, shit, even then you'd internalize the inherent lies that you construct in order to remain yourself in a hostile environment.
@@marcelopereira4407damn i feel you so much😭 i wish i could have a femboy, but i am a Christian
Liking trans women doesn't make you less straight, but yeah, it's good to know you find out yourself
Any animes and manga with traps/femboys you recommend?, i love that
Fate Grand Order is one such anime that can help you
amazing video!
I had no idea femboys suddenly became popular in 2020. To me they r as old as my love of anime
It was more like 2018 that they became popular, in my experience
my introduction of femboys in anime was haku
The monster can incident.. rather internet horror than history
What happened?
the pipeline is real im trans now
same lol. I know now I always was but 'femboy' was a good stepping stone.
There's a good video by Contrapoints titled 'Are Traps Gay', which I highly suggest watching.
VRchat....... yeaaa that felt like ground zero for me personally. It was always there everywhere but once lock-downs started the normies found out.
When there are femboy tiktoks showing in the video I fucking remember half of them 😭
wait the song at 6:20 is ''Who's Ready for Tomorrow'' :D
I don’t care what it is as long as it gives me love and affection.
i had a really hard time with emphasis on hard paying attention to this video and not the background
Im a femboy and agree with all you say 😅 alot actually use a trend as the reason for them being that way but as one who grew up around all females it became normal living 😅
For bisexuals who discovered their attraction to men via femboys, who are most masculine fictional chracters you are attracted to? Mine are Tartaglia and Zhongli from Genshin and main character of Bullet Train (played by Brad Pitt)
sadly tiktok ruined what being a femboy really is. its supposed to be being creative in your own comfy way and expressing yourself but now its just kinda copy and pasted cuz of tiktok
it has always been porn brained mfs
Given the character I'm named after I shouldn't be surprised this video got recommended lol
Yeah I feel like I’m in a weird limbo like you said I definitely wouldn’t say I’m bi. I just like the petite feminine nature of femboys, it’s hard to fully explain or comprehend even for myself. I feel you’re onto something with your train of thought.
Another thing for me personally is in the bedroom femboys really get into the performance. Some of them even more than most women appear to but, then again most femboys will be there for that sole reason.
on god you had my respect when i heard instrumentals from a death grips song
i watch it with a strange pressure on chest, should I be worried?
Go for it
Lmao that whole conversation on being bi is why, after realizing that no, I find traps hot, I did a bit of soul searching, threw my hands up in the air and said "my sexuality is whoever the fuck I find hot is attractive to me".
whats the intro music?

sorry for bad english!!!
one thing that always make me mad is how people mischaracteried astolfo. because of all hentais and porn involving astolfo, people started associating astolfo with their own fetishes and created a whole version of the character totally different from the actual astolfo (the one from fate)
also, astolfo is not even a femboy, the internet just chose astolfo as an icon or something. if im not mistaken, in apocrypha astolfo says they identifies as "cute" and, in fgo, astolfo never refers to themself as a man or something, they just don't correct people when calling them a guy ://
Were can i find that video of that guy singing beautiful girls im asking for a friend
hooly shitd is taht death grips in teh backraound holy moly dude
Reddit.. it was probably started on Reddit. There's a sub where femboy Friday is still a weelly thing.
Ehhh but someone who is AMAB who then either dresses femme or is trans femme has often been seen as a “joke” quite literally for decades. There is an al Pacino movie where he holds up a band for his partner who wants hormones. It’s often seen as a joke when they reveal this. Some like it hot the movie about two men crossdressing as women to be show girls. It’s been a method of humor since the days of blackface. And has the same effect as black face as it makes the idea of (usually) a trans woman the butt of the joke. Unlike blackface it has not been culturally deeemed unacceptable
why does this video has bangers in the soundtrack
As a part of femboy community, I would like to suggest this video for a nomination to the femboy explanation sections 😆
I still dont like the term femboy because it all feels way too sexual. I just wanna be a feminine guy. But the internet kinda ruined it and made it to be this "uwu cutesey" thing rather than an actual identity.
it has always been a porn category tho
@@signlessnyx not really
@@SukunaYaoiit has always been hell
what do you think yaoi started as
@signlessnyx femboy and yaoi are not related, I've watched plenty and not allot of those guys are feminine, just like irl not every gay guy "acts feminine"

I agree with your Tomboy / Femboy assessment. And it cannot normalise fast enough to hopefully prevent a mass of non reversible surgical interventions. Femboys might be gay or might be trans but the majority are neither, vice versa Tomboys.
yk Bros fr when he has deathgrips playing for the intro
Some people be like:"Even better"

"today femboys"
I love Femboy and I love the Cyberpunk Music in the Background, Kerry's song is so underrated.
I think we should study and discourage this behavior. It is a sign of degradation of our society. Not to mention it puts under age individuals in danger. We have already seen this happening.
The part where you were talking about the boom in the anime/hentai was just stupid.
There are traps that look like girls in real life, obviously not super common, but they do exist.
Especially in Asian countries.
dawg why's len there he aint no femboy 😭
you're overthinking it all it is we can't play games without joysticks.
Nicely done, as somebody who gotten into this... well I don't really remember how it's nice to see the progress to acceptance. I wish we'd be past that already, though, because in my case it would be a 'social suicide' heh
I remember watching himegoto before all of this. Shi changed me fr
Whats the action called in the thumbnail?
Good music choice
And then there’s the SCOTTISH MEN THAT WHERE THEIR KILTS AND SHOUT SCOTLAND FOREVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRR (LOUD MUSIC PLAYING)
Femboys me realise I felt I had a gender beyond just being cis. Never will stop being thankful for them and that
Imagine being a femboy, couldn’t be me 😩
People call this trend the "male equivalent of tomboys" a lot, but tomboy is a much broader term. It's hardly an umbrella term that can encompass every non-traditionally-masculine guy on the planet, it's a very specific trend inspired by an anime trope, and not a lot of guys can pull off the look. It would make more sense to compare femboys to something like the flapper trend from the 1920s. (exactly a century apart, ironically.) Regardless, I'm glad that the boundaries are being pushed. It seems as if, while women have practically every option open to them, both the traditional feminine roles and the masculine ones, and can be any type of person they want, (which to be clear is not something I am against,) men are stuck just being men, with all the cultural implications attached. Sometimes we're treated like men first and humans second, if at all.
Oh no it became a cannon event
W for using whos ready for tommorow
I agree back than in 2010 it was traps and than wow. it changed so much.
