You're kinda allowed to be hypocritical about who you date, though. Like, if trans women didn't give you the relevant warm, fuzzy feels* then not dating them wouldn't be wrong.





*Your feels may be neither warm nor fuzzy. Feels may or may not occur in the pants area. Feels are not for everyone. Consult your doctor before having feels.

Of course. I'm not into every woman I meet, but if I'm not into her, it will have nothing to do with her genitals.

Well I don't see the problem with it in casual discussions, when being used in a tongue-in-cheek manner. The same way you might call someone "dirty". But yeah, in serious discourse, it comes off as demeaning.

Like I said, it's an informal title I use to label things I like. "Twink" being another example. To their face, it's different.

Maybe, maybe not, depending on how... passing, I guess, she was. Leaning towards not though.

I don't think it's a particularly good argument that it's "transphobic" to say no, just like it's not particularly good reasoning to say someone is racist for only being attracted to certain facial features or skin colors. By that logic, that a lack of sexual attraction due to a certain feature is the same as bigotry, all gay men are misogynists for refusing to date women and all straight people are homophobes for refusing to date gay people.

I probably would not, no. Just as much as I probably wouldn't date someone who hated to go outdoors, or someone who is haughty or snobby.

Yes, if I figured out I had being going out with a guy until a certain point I would be shocked and infuriated. I would then pummel him in response.

So, you'll perpetrate a hate crime and willfully go to prison in addition to having your name and face be forever maligned by decent society?

IT would most likely freak me out at first, but if its someone I actually hooked up with later and then she told me after awhile then at that point I am "in too deep" and would not care. But I have trouble holding down relationships period for anything more then a month or so at a time. :lol2:

Your definition of decent society and mine don't really go hand in hand, so that doesn't bother me.

I make myself very clear to anyone that knows me that I don't like transexuals and their friends. If they somehow manage to shrug that off and, everything forbid, go out with me then we seriously have a problem.

Then I believe you are a danger to society, and I hope your inevitable stint in prison teaches you the error of your ways.

Is there a (supposed) reason behind your hatred of trans* people, or is it just xenophobia?

I sincerely hope that he doesn't go to prison for a hate crime, as that would mean that he had committed a hate crime. The best we can hope for is that he lives out his days in solitude, and is quietly brushed to the side of the road as the rest of society moves on past his bigoted and ignorant views.

I might be a danger to the societies you and your people enjoy, but when I get where I want to be everything will be just fine.

Would I date a girl? Yes.

If you mean FTM, then would I date a guy? Sure, they'd have to make me like them sufficiently first though. A girl would have an easier time of getting me to go out with them no doubt.

Getting agitated in that situation is understandable and reasonable. Using violence is absolutely not.
