No, but I have nothing against it. I hate that I would be uncomfortable with it, I have no reason to be and wish I didn't care, but I think dating-wise, it would bother me.
Well, the "how it's arranged" part is pretty damn important.EclipseoftheDarkSun said:*snip*...hehe... snip
What if you can't tell the difference? If that doesn't matter then why is the notion that they for all intents and purposes are aesthetically not the same gender anymore?godofallu said:Hell no
Fine in order to avoid a low content post i'll add more. A transexual isn't really a different sex post op. It isn't possible to just swap sexes.
basically this, i'll be your best damn friend for life, but believe me, i've tried not being a ignorant prick but i nearly throw up in my mouth thinking about something such as this occurring between me and a transsexual person, and it's just one of those "whatever floats your boat" things i think.BloatedGuppy said:Would I date the AVERAGE transsexual? One who retained a number of masculine features? Say a strong jaw and some 5 o' clock shadow? Or big line backer shoulders? Or man hands? Eh...probably not. But I'm a shallow prick.
That's beyond a reasonable reaction. I have no desire to have sex with another man, but the thought of the act doesn't drive me to any particularly strong feelings, let alone physical reactions.gmaverick019 said:basically this, i'll be your best damn friend for life, but believe me, i've tried not being a ignorant prick but i nearly throw up in my mouth thinking about something such as this occurring between me and a transsexual person, and it's just one of those "whatever floats your boat" things i think.
but hey, if that pleases whoever, by all means, have at it, more for you, so to speak.
Have to agree with the original quote, fairly sure you'd be able to tell the difference in the bedroom aswell.th3dark3rsh33p said:What if you can't tell the difference?

Aesthetics are apart of sex, and you shouldn't be ashamed of that. Not like your treating them differently as a person. So I wouldn't worry about it or think less of yourself.Vareoth said:Well, I'm gay so the person I would be dating would have a d*ck. I have looked up Phalloplasty to get a general idea of how surgery like this works and looks. While I don't mind the psychological aspect of "he used to be a she", the whole constructed genitalia looks a bit off. So maybe once the surgical aspect of this whole business looks a bit better I wouldn't mind dating a transgender.
Damn I'm a shallow asshole...
Interestingly enough though, I have looked up the opposite kind of surgery called Vaginoplasty and it doesn't look that much different from the natural thing. Go medical science!
I feel like I am much in the same boat. I consider myself a mostly-straight male and my position on a transgender relationship is much like mine on dating a guy: I have no problem with it whatsoever, and I would do it if I found someone whom I wanted to be with, but I hit some difficulties of varying degrees when it comes to sex. I end up having a hard time imagining myself being comfortable in that situation.Sunrider84 said:I gave this a lot of thought after having this very discussion with an acquaintance a while back. I still haven't come up with an answer. As much as it's wrong of me to have a prejudice against it, I can't seem to shake it completely. By prejudice, I mean in terms of me being able to date one, not that I feel like there's anything wrong with transsexual people. The fact that I even felt like I had to explain that makes me frustrated.
Disregarding children (I don't even know if I want any or not, but I'm leaning towards "want"), as someone said earlier, I doubt I'd even notice if it's "done right" (forgive me for that phrasing, it wasn't meant to offend), so I'm leaning towards "sure, why not?", but you just never know until you're met with the situation.
Wow, lots of quotation marks there. Maybe I should work on my English. Yes, yes I should.
Generally depends on the skill of the surgeon.Ryan Minns said:Serious question actually I may as well ask here since many people seem to be rather knowledgeable with this
Male to female transsexuals in particular I wish to ask about. Is the vagina created possible of self lubrication? The only time I've done ANY research on this was a long time ago and it was so hard to get any information so was just curious if they have a way of allowing it now?
