Would you as a straight person date a trans man/woman?

Especially interested in the answers of people who consider trans women/men to be genuine members of that gender.

If you respond with hatred or insults i'll just report and block you so keep it respectful.

Absolutely not.

Honestly, no. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. But I have hang-ups and that's okay.

[c=800000] I don't date
I've no wish to date before or outside marriage so fir future when it comes to marriage It's fine
But if I fall in love with a cis man then there's no further questions or options left [/c]

That's an interesting approach. Are you hoping to just meet a man and decide to marry him and hope it works out?
Raaii · 22-25, F
@Pikachu [c=800000] I've no much idea now
But I think the arrange route will go better for me[/c]

There's a possibility that, like the famous scene in the film 'The Crying Game', you could fall seriously in love with a beautiful woman, only to find out in the throes of passion that she has a penis.

It's definitely a complicated situation, because, like the main character in that film, he'd already fallen heavily in love with the person before he realised that she was a he. As a straight man, I sometimes wonder what I'd do if I developed feelings for someone I originally thought was a female from birth, only to discover they were trans. Should a trans person immediately declare their situation to any potential suitors?
I would make the sex with a trans person, but they'd have to be post-op.
I think that's the real difference between bi and pan.

Interesting take! I often ponder the difference is between bi and pan. It's kind of a matter of degrees. I consider myself pan and would absolutely get freaky with aliens if they were consenting and into it and not going to impregnate me. I use pan [i]because[/i] I don't limit myself to my own species even if it is only hypothetical partners. Functionally it's like being Bi with a Furry twist.
@Doomflower Yeah, I always saw it as a bisexual is attracted to the male form and the female form, whereas a pansexual is attracted to the entire spectrum, which would include the intersex forms. And I guess it could include other intelligent lifeforms, like aliens.
I would probably bang a Ditto if it made itself look like Sabrina Carpenter.

I wouldn’t date anyone as a straight person....because I’m not straight.
I would date someone who was transgender.
Tastyfrzz · 61-69, M
Would I "date" a friend? Yes. Regardless of gender Identity. One; perhaps my best friend, is trans/ intersex. We talk all of the time. Known each other for many years. Was with them when their father died. Covered their mother's cararact surgery, and many other things. They're a nurse now working in a hospital. Planning to go spend a week with them and their family soon. The difficulty is explaining any of this to anyone else who is not understanding. I just wish I could bring them here.
It depends on many factors. The usual like personality, general looks, shared interests, etc. of course still apply. But there's many factors in transitioning too. Women who already went through male puberty usually keep a somewhat masculine look, some only transition socially and have no interest in changing their genitals. But if I can't even tell she was born a man by looking at her, I don't see why her telling me that was the case would make a difference.

Why only straight people?
As a gay man' i would not date a trans
No, I prefer those who can embrace who they are
SW-User
Absolutely not. I can respect transwomen and call them by their desired pronouns, but I don’t see them as true females. They still have genetics of dudes. Depending on how early they transition, some still look like men in skirts. Even with those that pass as women, they still can’t create children.
ServantOfTheGoddess · 61-69, M
If I were dating, someone being trans would not count against them.

Oops, I just noticed you said "as a straight person". I'm not really straight, so discount my answer.
AlchemyFox · 36-40, F
I'm not really straight, but I would date a trans. I just want to be with someone who is comfortable with themselves.
onewithshoes · 22-25, F
No, because I would want someone who had the ability to beget children.

As someone who identifies as bi. I am unsure if I would a trans person it really depends on how serious they are with their transition and if they can actually pass as that gender.
Hair dye and a dress is sometimes not enough because I dye my hair and may occasionally wear make-up and a dress and still see myself as male in drag if that.
OliRos · 18-21, F
I am not a straight person.
Ontheroad · M
Date, no; but be friends with, yes.
Carazaa · F
This is my honest answer, which might get some hatred from many people. I have had gay friends and trans friends, sure. Some have been genuinely wonderful, kind, and fun people. But regardless how attracted I am to someone I would not go beyond friendship, unless they are born again christian.
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
To be honest I wouldn't know what to do till I get put in that situation.

Can't tell you how I would handle something if I was never put in that kind of place.

I don't know how else to answer this type of question.
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
That depends on how they are about it. Maybe let me know around the 2nd or third date. I hate when they go all Vegan-like and announce their status like its some astounding thing.
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
I’m respectful and supportive of all genders but I don’t think I could date a trans. unless maybe it was female to male, very masculine, hot, and super kind then I might consider it
WhateverWorks · 36-40
I’m supportive of respecting a person’s chosen identity, but as far as dating, no. I’m bi-cis-normative for lack of better term.
itsok · 31-35, F
If I was romantically attracted to them. So far I’ve only been romantically attracted to cis men, so I’m not sure.
Penny · 46-50, F
If they had a dick id consider it lol. Can they do that?
Tastyfrzz · 61-69, M
@Penny Most mtf folks probably still have a fully functional penis but hormone therapy can affect its' size and any pleasure as estrogen will impact that. They actually have intense pain during an orgasm. At least that is what I've been told by my friend. Their desire to be a different gender outweighs all of that.
Penny · 46-50, F
@Tastyfrzz oh. okay thanks.
Crazywaterspring · 61-69, M
Why not? If we were mutually attracted and they can engage in interesting conversation, yes.
DownTheStreet · 51-55, M
Can’t say for certain but probably not. Nothing against but I’m not sure I’d go there.
Bluebirdsonmyshoulder · 46-50, F
No. If that was of interest to me, I would state that as such.
IllThinkOfSomething · 26-30, M
Probably not. If I did, I would expect to be told they are trans.
speefw00f112 · 31-35, M
genuine members of which and what gender?

and, no.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
I tell you when I'll go out and meet real people, lol.
Queendragonfly · 31-35, F
I can date with whoever that has the penis.
Adogslife · 61-69, M
No interest whatsoever under any circumstances.
If I dated, yes I would. It's not an issue for me.
No, I wouldn't be comfortable.
No, I’m not into cock

As a straight cis-male, I find myself attracted to biologically female anatomy. I am very turned off at the idea of being sexual with another person who has a penis.

I've never experienced post-op trans- women to say whether the surgery and hormone changes would be enough.

I might consider a trans-man, sexually. Though I'm not a fan of facial hair. I am actually rather attracted to the tomboy archetype, but certainly have the preference for a biological woman that identifies as a woman but has some male tendencies. But, knowing that about myself means maybe the transman thing isn't too outside my attraction range.

I speak these as purely sexual/romantic preferences. I'll accept a trans woman as a woman, but I'm not attracted to all biological women either so I don't consider that dating preference to be unreasonable.
Jexie · 26-30, F
Probably not.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
I am pretty open but so far I have been only attracted to cisgender men.
samanthaX · 41-45, T
