Is it transphobic to not date someone who’s trans even if they are post-op?

This trans woman said that if you wouldn’t date a trans person just due to the fact they’re trans then you are transphobic and if you say that you support the LGBT community you are a hypocrite. She also says that dating someone based on their genitals is gross and fetishizing.. thoughts? It’s an interesting topic 🤔

  • Let's not get thing confused here: She is still bilogically a man. Surgery and hormones are not going to change the fact that she was born with a penis. Deciding that one is straight will not change the fact that she was still born a man.

    Does a body kit on a pinto suddenly make that pinto a Ferarri? No, it doesn't because the internal workings are not the same. If someone pays for a ticket to the opera and instead get Barney on Ice then they are right to be frustrated. Having a sexual orientation does not make anyone transphobic when that person is trying to say anything in a desperate attempt to get laid.

    My response would be not my problem as a straight man to pleasure a post op male transitioning to psuedo-female when that isn't my orientation. If they don't want to respect my sexuality then the only one being intolerant is THEM. #CISPHOBIA

  • Why can't they take responsibility when people dont want to date them for cutting of their genitals and other sex organs in some cases? They always have to come up with excuses and try to shame people into having sex with them. It should be classed as attempted rape.

  • I can definitely understand why someone wouldn't feel comfortable with it. As long as you aren't an ass about it, that doesn't make you transphobic. (PS, I'd be with a trans person. It doesn't bother me.)

  • I see her point, and she is hitting on some validity, but in the end, we can't really help what we like in terms of a partner. We grew up in the same binary, heteronormative world they did.

  • No. That's like saying non bissexuals are sexist for wanting to date people of only one gender...

  • Of course not.

  • A trans person that wouldn't date another trans person is a Piece of shit/Hypocrite.

    I think the 26+ people that said NO... Didn't read the full question.

  • What a load of crap!

    I most of the gay guys and lesbians I know, can't stand trans.

  • This society has degenerated to a mess of political correctness and catering and cowering to everybody else because they weren't given an ounce of discipline in their life. The slew of genders (real and the vastly imagined) has become a punch line and more of the easy attack to fault others. Since when has it been wrong to have an opinion or preference? The people that cry transphobic are preference shaming because they don't get the desired attention they want

  • Not wanting to date a guy who thinks he's a she just means you're not gay.

  • Then, attacking my decisions makes them faschist.

  • No its just your choice. You dont have to be attracted to trans people so your not transphobic.

  • Okay than I'm transphobic.

  • It is irrelevant. You have a free choice to choose who you date. You can discriminate as much as you want, because it is your right to do so.

  • No it's transphobic to say all transgenders should be thrown off buildings. Deciding not to date a trans is making a decision , not transphobic.

  • Seems entitled to attention.

  • No it's a preference. If she thinks other wise then she should go fuck herself

  • Who ever The 3 votes were Definitely 100% trans people

  • yes, and if u dont wanna date me its Spacepopophobic

    • Nicely done 🤣

  • No, it doesn’t

  • Nope it's not 'transphobic' if you don't want to date mentally ill people

    • They're not mentally ill

  • No it makes you a normal person

  • If you don't want to date someone because you don't find them attractive does that make you any type of phobic? It's ok to have preferences but people should be shamed on their preferences, unless they prefer touching children... I like my women born with vaginas, I don't care what that makes me

  • "She also says that dating someone based on their genitals is gross and fetishizing..."

    Say what you will: sex is, most of the time, a very important and intimate part of a relationship. Not wanting to have sex with, or date a trans person doesn't make you transphobic. If you're not into it, don't force yourself into it.

  • It’s not transphobic whatsoever. I wouldn’t date a trans after operation because that’s just me. I’m not saying I’m not dating s trans after operation because this this this and that
