Dating a transperson

I would. Although being honest, my partner getting SRS first used to be a big hang up for me in this department when I'd think about it. I think back when I thought more like a straight man than a gay woman, physical sex was a lot more important to me than the person inside. It still is important and I still need a woman as a partner, but I'm pretty sure if it were another MtF woman she'd be about as uncomfortable doing certain things in bed as I would anyway. And it'd be great to have someone supportive to go through transition with. I guess I'd be worried a little about her orientation drifting if she was pre hormones, but I think I'd take that risk for the right person.

 

I don't know. I've never met any transgendered people. But I think it would depend on the person

 

I'm bi and I have already dated a transboy and would happily date a transboy again Probably not a transgirl but definitely a transboy

 

I would most definitely. I look at what's on the inside first, not the exterior or their genitalia.

 

I could date someone who is trans*. I don't see it as a problem at all.

 

Nah, I've found many trans people to be cool, but I need naturally male features in my life.

 

i don't have a problem either with dating a trans person, but without male genitalia it wouldn't work in the bedroom.

 

I've considered myself a pansexual because I can attract tranwomen. Also, I had an experiment with a guy, and I can't attract to men. I feel so wrong when I was with guy.
So I can date with mtf, not ftm.

 

I think I would date a post-op trans woman.

 

Same.

 

i said no...

im bi and havent dated a guy and dont think i will... i would hook up with a TGirl or Xd if they look really fem and hot etc... but i wouldnt date them coz being in the closet myself im scared to get people starring at me and her if we were out in public holding hands... and i dont intend on coming out of the closet anytime soon

 

Personally, I'm not really sure whether or not I would. I'm not really certain. I guess it would depend more on the person...

 

Yes, I know some trans people who are really, really attractive and powerful people. Yes, I'd get love to get with them.

 

I answered "No" in the poll. It is nothing against trans people at all. It's just a personal preference for me. I absolutely support people who do not feel right with the gender they were assigned at birth and I'm also in full support of people who believe in a non-binary gender spectrum. I too believe it exists, but for me personally I need to be with a cisgendered person. I just don't think I could emotionally handle being with a man who used to be a woman or a woman who used to be a man. But hey, maybe I would be surprised. I'll never say never.

 

If you want to, could you expand on this? I get confused when a bisexual says they won't date trans* people...

Or if you don't, just ignore me.

 

I voted "No." Although I won't say it's a hard and fast no. If a really special guy came along, and he happened to have started life as a female, well I'd possibly reconsider mighty fast.

Also note: as of today, I'm still working on accepting myself. Once that happens, I might well be more comfortable with a transperson.

Finally: with very casual dating I'd probably be very flexible now.

 

As long as I like the person it doesn't really matter to me if they are trans* or anything else. I can see myself in a relationship with anyone.

 

I'd have to say no. On one hand, I'd say I'm really strict when it comes to potential suitors. On the other, I'd probably say I'm less so than most. I'd say no to this question because any sign of instability in my partner, mentally or physically, puts me off. Put simply, this is a sign of instability. If someone can prove otherwise and seem otherwise straightforward and laid-back, then it wouldn't be a problem.

I'd also be a lot more comfortable if a trans-person is obviously now very comfortable in their gender and don't 'fluctuate'. I just worry that it would cause emotional stress at some point

 

i'd at least consider it b/c i'm not a bigot
