If you're just talking about the fediverse, it's probably because a lot of us (MtF's I mean) got interested in things like tech at a young age, and that interest just persisted into adulthood. Interests like that aren't pushed as much to people raised as girls, so a lot of FtM people don't really get into it, if they even have the chance to try it at all.
If you mean society as a whole, well there are a lot of reasons. A big one imo is media representation. Every single sitcom had a trans girl character at some point, but the only one I could think of that had a trans guy before the 2000s was the Golden Girls.
ngl I've been looking into this recently and its actually kinda the opposite in most countries - considering usual misogynistic societies a women would be 'improved' as a man and the opposite vise versa.
Hence why we have like Pocahontas a while back but not really mtf equivalents (at least that I can think of, and aren't just the butt end of a joke).
But nowadays the mtf's are finally able to be themselves so I feel like were seeing a wave of relief in the community that's always been there (just repressed af)
