Autogynephilia or AGP for short, functions like an addiction more than an orientation or identity. If we understand it as an addiction is also gives insight into the escalating nature of the phenomenon. Men who cross-dress begin it doing it occasionally as a masturbatory exercise, but over time that bliss wanes and the agp troon-to-be begins to 'chase the dragon'. There are extensive psychiatric comorbidities among these people because addictions, even non-substance abuse ones, are part of a mentally ill person's coping strategies regularly.
Dissociation is the source of euphoric high the AGP craves, and to achieve that 'perfect bliss' he embodys any role that was deeply *not him*. This is why sexism is an absolute prerequisite for the AGP as he sees woman as another species, not just people who happen to be female, so he feels he must 'other' women in order to reach that place of 'non-self'.
To access that gender euphoria, everyone they interact with has to speak and behave as though they're women, else they'll be trapped as mere crossdressing men in their little faggy discord kink groups.
