A lot of the 4chan-esque toxicity around trans people is some mix of taboo horniness and misogynist commoditization of femininity.
I don't think either encourage trans-inclusiveness. The very term "Trap" implies trans people are attempting to exploit other people through their presentation.
I've always thought of "Trap" as cross dressing with malicious intent. Not term to describe trans people, but it's not something I consider a hill worth dying on.
My idea is that "cross dressing" MMO players are just seeding the idea gender non-conformity into the player base's mind. Not that they're pro-trans activists.
That's a much more benevolent way to look at it. But I tended not to see the heavily adolescent male MMO community view men playing as women anything but
This, combined with the "No girls on the Internet" stigma tended to drive crassness and hostility towards all women avatars.
