The '''trans-vestigiality hypothesis''' is similar to the [[homocel hypothesis]] and the [[incel transbian pipeline]] in that it suggests that a significant segment of the transgender population used to be incel. It suggests that inceldom may cause gender dysphoria in some people 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 [[deincelize]], and/or simply an attempt to live life on [[tutorial mode]] (i.e. as a woman). The case studies depicted on the [[trannymaxxing]] page (see [[trannymaxxing]]) or other one's depicted below show that transitioning to female can aid in [[deincelization]]. However, some incel-turned-transgenders remain incel (or [[transcel]]) upon becoming transgender.<ref>https://www.westernjournal.com/study-claims-transgenders-suffering-straight-people-arent-dating/</ref> | The '''trans-vestigiality hypothesis''' is similar to the [[homocel hypothesis]] and the [[incel transbian pipeline]] 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 slightly 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 amusing to incels. | Some incel Youtubers have referred to many cases of male to female transsexualism as "advanced inceldom".

Dr Erica Todd from the University of Otago is a leading researcher in the Trans-vestigiality hypothesis in non-human animals. She calls male animals who take on female imagery to increase mating success as "sneaker males". She explains how "sneaker males" disguise themselves as females to avoid aggression from larger males, and steal mating opportunities.<ref>https://phys.org/news/2017-11-sneaky-males-female-like-brains-big.html</ref> Her work focused a lot on Bluehead Wrasse fish. She found that the "sneaker males" had genes for male sex hormones turned off making them appear feminine but also had much more sperm production and sperm quality control. The "sneaker males" had near identical brain gene expression to females and much different brain gene expression than non-sneaker-males. The "sneaker males" often also changed roles to more masculine fish as they grew larger. | Dr Erica Todd from the University of Otago is a leading researcher in the Trans-vestigiality hypothesis in non-human animals.
