I will say they're less aggressively pervy but I ascribe that to the difference between men and women in general. I have a related theory as to why so many detransitioners are women related to how their groups look exactly like typical women's support groups. We have an existing culture for women to bond over their problems, the lonely incel male is more likely to stubbornly double down in anger at his lack of success and seethe in silence. I trust we all know guys like this in other areas, maybe even ourselves. Just anecdotally it seems less common with women, perhaps because their culture encourages talking about everything with others. (Even if less honestly than men would.)
The Kiwi Farms thread about trans surgery disasters has a lot of FTM's because of the "penises" they get constructed. As bad as the open wounds the males get for their "vaginas" are, those things are literal abominations. I mention that thread because the people who post in it often post other reddit posts from the people talking about their various transition stuff so you can see the person ignoring any counter advice and barreling straight towards disaster and the surgery disaster pictures are supposed to be hidden behind spoilers.
Much like how reading the trans lesbians they read even more stereotypically male than most men, the same is the case for FTM's. If you ever got notes or e-mails from teenage girls when you were younger, reading the essays the FTMs write on their subreddits will look exactly like that even though they're talking about dicks and beards and obsessing about what might happen in a men's room.
They also do the opposite of our lesbians, can never figure out why gay men aren't interested in them and why straight cis males continue to be.
