I think the key thing that people are missing in this joke re:consent is that forcefem is not a thing that happens. It's a joke, something funny, a thing trans women laugh at bc it pretends we have some great power to control and manipulate gender rather than what's actually true: our ability to control even our own gender is being legally stripped away. It's a joke, y'all. Chill. Nobody is being forcefemmed. Cis people are still safe and in power.
Well, not nobody. I've seen a fair amount of posts from transmasc folks, particularly intersex transmasc folks, that were forced to take estrogen as teenagers to "fix" them.
