    Absolutely. Gender doesn't mean much to me.

    I've met some and out of the ones ive met, no. The problem isn't so much their inability to pass but they've been so awkward or weird that I can't deal with their personalities. It's just been a bad experience in the past and in reality I think I'd say yes to the right girl.

    Yes, I would. My current crush is transgender and frankly, I think we're too much of a good match to care about things like genitals.

    Honestly, we might have to figure out stuff regarding sex, but that's not what I'm mostly looking for in a relationship anyway.

    It depends on the person for me, not on their gender or sex.

    Hypothetically yes for men and women - but I haven't dated anyone yet nor been asked.

    I think I'd be more likely to date a transwoman who had saved sperm/still got a penis or a cisman if I'm thinking about having a family. The only problem with a transwoman/cisman is they can be quite tall and I've set my dating height limit about 5 foot 10 (I'm 4ft 10). But I'd date a ciswoman as well. Transman I'm unsure about due to not being able to erect naturally (and have no idea if this is a big deal in sexual intercourse). Height would be good for ciswoman/transman though, since they tend to be smaller. I do think, that once I'm ready, the sexual part itself would be important in the sense I felt comfortable with it. If I am uncomfortable in any way I will stop the relationship.

    They would also have to have things interesting about them as an individual, in other words, not make their entire identity of self being about being trans. If they would accuse someone of being "transphobic" if someone didn't date them - that's just not the kind of person I want to date. Also if we just met if they expect me to pay for transition or therapy I wouldn't date them, not being used like that (especially when we have the NHS).
