    Trans women conforming to traditional gender norms in order to be more accepted by society/to feel internal validation because those things are they they grew up thinking a woman should be like, is what they mean

    I.e. the housewife, traditionally “feminine” activities, having somewhat backwards thoughts about a woman’s “purpose”

      I think the underlying theme meant to be picked up here is it’s attention. Guys don’t get attention more often than not so when a guy transitions and receives that attention they absolutely love it. Whereas cis women receive this attention from the beginning and it’s gotten old to them.
