History Main / TransEqualsHypersexual

* ''Webcomic/MenageA3'': Even with how hypersexualized many characters in the series are, transgender character Senna stands out due being portrayed with pretty much every negative transphobic stereotype about trans women there is, including rape (she anally penetrated the male lead while he was too drunk to consent), a moment that is portrayed as a BlackComedyRape scene without any consequences of any kind.

-->--'''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS8E18QuagmiresDad Quagmire's Dad]]"

* ''Manga/TigerAndBunny'': Nathan was born male and dresses very flamboyantly and sexily (even wearing high heels), and could definitely be seen as being "exotic", uses female UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns,[[note]](though there are also cisgender homosexuals who do this as well--see "lavender linguistics")[[/note]] and self-describes as "one of the girls". WordOfGod states that Nathan considers themself to be "gender-free". Also, in the 6th Drama CD Nathan files a request to Yuri Petrov for a gender-neutral locker room. They act seductively towards men as well.

A ComingOutStory featuring this trope may depict a character with a seemingly normal sex life who becomes more promiscuous or freaky in bed after they come out or begin transitioning. This can be chock full of UnfortunateImplications, implying that they were a closeted pervert all along, that transitioning somehow corrupted their sexuality, or that their transition is itself a sexual kink. {{Downplayed}} examples may claim that rather than being linked to trans identity, it's due to libido shifts caused by hormone therapy.

This is often linked closely to stereotypes that AllGaysArePromiscuous, where their interests are portrayed as solely lustful and hedonistic, in contrast to moral and romantic heterosexual relationships. And much like how any depictions of gay romance tend to be labeled as gratuitous or over-the-top, depictions of [=trans/GNC=] sexuality tend to be labeled as overly sexual or fetishistic under any circumstance. It also may contain other transphobic undertones, such as implying that trans women are no different from [[AllMenArePerverts perverted men]].

* ''Literature/DemonLordRetry'': Yukikaze, a "girlish boy", is introduced licking a long popsicle, makes constant sexual innuendos and {{Double Entendre}}s and is very forward about the things he wants Kunai to do to his "holes". He is by far the most sexually-charged character in the series. Even the title of an episode frames Yukikaze's sexual advances as an "attack" on Kunai.

* ''Series/{{Transparent}}'': Averted during the first season, where Maura was the only character who wasn't engaging in raunchy sexual behavior. Then, it became an EnforcedTrope in season 2, after trans writer Our Lady J took the reins. It became her mission to sexualize Maura, but not turn her into an object.

* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'': In "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS8E18QuagmiresDad Quagmire's Dad]]," Glenn's father Dan comes out as transgender and changes her name to Ida. She talks about the details of her bottom surgery at a family dinner, browses porn on her phone in public, and doesn't disclose to Brian that she's trans before having sex with him.

* They [[CommitmentIssues avoid long-term monogamy]] and prefer [[ReallyGetsAround a lot of short-term partners]]--sometimes [[{{Polyamory}} multiple at the same time]].

* They're willfully involved in TheOldestProfession in some way, such as prostitution, pornography, or camwhoring.

* They willfully do immoral things in order to have sex, such as concealing the fact that they're trans while flirting with someone.[[note]]This is the origin of "trap" as (often derisive) slang for a trans person--implying that they want to pass as cis so they can dupe unaware people into sex[[/note]]

A ComingOutStory featuring this trope may depict a character with a seemingly normal sex life who becomes more promiscuous or out-there after they come out or begin transitioning. This can be chock full of UnfortunateImplications, implying that they were a closeted pervert all along, that transitioning corrupted their sexuality, or that their transition is merely an extension of their kinks. {{Downplayed}} examples may claim that rather than being linked to trans identity, it's due to libido shifts caused by hormone therapy.

There may be a degree of TruthInTelevision in the sense that there are hypersexual trans and queer people, but it's hardly universal; the sexuality and sex drive of people within the queer community ranges from hypersexual to asexual. There are also debates in queer communities as to whether they should try and sanitize their public image as a reaction to this trope: advocates say they should [[StopBeingStereotypical stop reinforcing negative stereotypes]], while opponents say it's attempting to pander to a society that will negatively judge them no matter what.

Similarly to how TransEqualsGay is the assumption that transgenderism the "next step up" of homosexuality or crossdressing, Trans Equals Hypersexual is the assumption that trans or gender-nonconforming people are more sexually "out there" than cisgender gay people, and even more so when compared to the general heterosexual population. This unlikely to ever be explicitly called out in a work (unless it's an AuthorTract about the evils and debaucheries of the queer community), instead treating it as how trans people simply are.

This portrayal can manifest in one or several of the following forms:

* They have an ExtremeLibido, constantly talking about or partaking in sex.

* They're an ExtremeOmnisexual who's willing to sleep with anyone interested in them.

* They willfully do immoral things in order to have sex, such as concealing the fact that they're trans while flirting with someone.[[note]]This is the origin of the term "trap" as (often derisive) slang for a trans person--implying that they're lying about their gender identity to dupe people into sex[[/note]]

* Downplayed examples of this trope may suggest that instead of it being something inherent to their trans identity, it's a side effect of hormone replacement therapy altering their libido.
