Date someone who's transgender?

[Anocxu]

Sex, gender, and trans status are not barriers to me. If I click with the person, that's all there is. I consider myself lucky in this regard. I would absolutely date a transman if we clicked.

You misspelled "Trans Am"..

Its kind of weird for me personally and who and what I am attracted to. I am not attracted to guys who cross dress but I am attracted to guys that are transexual or have breasts but they also still have the genitals of a male and I often wonder what it would be like to date a tranny. I often look at porn that has she males and stuff like that and it honestly does get me aroused. I feel like my sexuality is all over the board with my interests and I just have different reactions to different things.

Just like some guys enjoy going to drag shows, I just have no interest and don't see the appeal of that but then I am attracted to she males or guys that have breasts and cocks, it just makes no sense to me why I am that way, lol

Er... Me personally I only like guys... full-out guys, I don't like females at all, I mean just the way they look can never appeal to me... I like muscled guys... and I am not sure if a transman can orgasm like a natural-born man... Erm I am not against trans people, it's just that I would be kind of freaked out if my boyfriend was originally a girl... the very idea of a being with a guy that was once a girl makes me cringe... And seeing a herm or shemale makes me cringe and want to hide under my covers *shivers*. Not saying that I can't be friends with trans people, I can be, but PLEASE keep your clothes on....

But it's not likely I'd date a trans-man at all >,< or anyone really that was a woman or is half of a woman >,<

So this is a question directed mainly towards guys who identify as gay, but of course everyone's input is welcome and appreciated!

How would you feel about seeing someone who was born biologically female, but identifies as a gay male? Or have you, and if so, how did it go? I personally find myself frequently attracted to trans guys. Just wondering how others feel about this subject.

Never have... that I'm aware of....

It would boil down to the person. While I do have my 'body type' that I like, I have fallen or felt attracted to individuals outside of my body type.

And yes there were two women who I seriously considered as potential wife material. Sadly both where lesbians and wouldn't have interest in me.

Personality is far more important to me than the body...

I love tits and I love dick. A perfect combination. Sadly most of them want money to do anything with them.

Are you sure you and the OP are talking about the same thing

My thought exactly Miles. Although a lot of guys do like mid-transition people, but this situation sounds different. I like guy parts as well as the next raging sex crazed homosexual, but I'd still like to think that I'm not surface enough to ditch someone I've grown to love based on the "box it came in" (That just sounded all kinds of wrong, didn't it?).

I love men because they look like men. They have defined muscles, They are strong. And they have a specific odor that is very arousing. Plus they have a penis. I love women because they can be soft and smooth. They have curves, they have breasts and a vagina. I love each sex for different reasons and don't really want them mixed with each other.

I feel like the main issue when dating a transperson is sex and the general preference for "standard" male traits. Although from my experience as a transmale and having dated two guys who were gay, sex really actually was not an issue. Things change a little bit when you start to have feelings for a person I guess.

That being said I don't think it's offensive or transphobic to not be attracted to a transperson. I have my personal body preferences and I don't think gay men are obligated to be attracted to me because I'm a gay man. I am quite happy being a man with a vag and if vaginas are deal breakers I don't hold it against anyone.

And just a sidenote of a small bit of transeducation for anyone who might need it: I am a real man regardless of the fact that I have a vagina.
