I'm wondering if what you are referring to as masculine competition is what I refer to as to as identity posturing. To me, identity posturing is just a process of people getting comfortable in their own skin. They may have declared themselves to be butch, but now they have to figure out what that means, how that looks, how that behaves etc. It's an internal process, I think, but it is heavily influenced by external things. The more butches someone is exposed to, the more variations they see. More variations mean more things to try on, see if it fits kind of thing. Eventually, people find what fits them, they settle into a peace with themselves and others. Thats what I have noticed with butches. I dont know if FTM go thru the same kind of thing.
