The '''trans-vestigiality hypothesis''' is similar to the [[homocel hypothesis]] in that it suggests that a significant segment of the transgender population used to be incel. It suggests that inceldom may cause gender dysmorphia and by extension may lead a person to consider gender transitioning. Anecdotes from incels and studies on non-human animals suggest this may be due to a desire for the transitioning incel to avoid confrontation with stronger men (or disgusted women), to increase reproductive or romance opportunities, or simply make life more bearable. | The '''trans-vestigiality hypothesis''' is similar to the [[homocel hypothesis]] in that it suggests that a significant segment of the transgender population used to be incel.

Some incel Youtubers have referred to many cases of male to female transsexualism as "advanced inceldom". Female to male transsexualism,, which occurs at a much lower rate than male to female transsexualism, is also often seen by people in the incelosphere as a voluntary [[incelization|incelizing]] process, and as such is highly interesting to incels. | |||
