Is it easier to accept trans women who look womanly?

[Anonymous]

For example, this trans BBW from Brazil looks like a woman who could be married to a male friend of yours; she probably reminds you of a few women you know. She obviously has very womanly features. Having the look of a Latin BBW, big knockers and all, she's physically attractive. Does the fact that she "looks the part of a woman" make it easier to accept her as a woman?

Yes

No

As far as pronouns and thinking of them as "female," honestly, yes. The 5% or less of them who can actually not look like a straight up man in a wig. Unlike that transwoman you showed here. That jawline, those shoulders, that giant forehead and brow, the lack of actual breasts. How THE HELL does that "pass" to you? This is clearly you airing your fetish out to everyone on GAG.

But yeah, if they looked legit female, I wouldn't have to lie to my own eyes about calling them a "she/her," even if they're still dudes. But almost no transwomen actually look female.

As far as sleeping with them or dating them, though? No. They are still men. They still have a penis, or male anatomy. I'd be friends with a transwoman, though. I knew one here in Korea; they were from Columbia or Venezuela or something and were 6'1" without heels. They were a bartender at a bar I used to go to in late 2021.

But I don't think I could ever date a man/transwoman. Simply because I'm not gay and dicks and naked male anatomy gross me out.

Not much of what you said struck me as genuine, and the fact that you claim I'm "airing out a fetish" (in the politics section of GAG) says a lot about the internal conflict this post (inadvertently) caused in you. Wow, dude... 😆

[MCheetah]

IDGAF if you think it's genuine or not. Nor do I care what you think my supposed "internal conflict" is.
Don't ask questions on GAG if you don't like the responses to them and you're going to whine like a child in his 40s when someone on the internet doesn't validate your viewpoints. Grow TF up.

[lost-in-a-reverie]

That looks like a male in makeup and woman's clothes in just a passing glance, let alone looking closely. Do I think it's easier to accept it? Yes I do, I think there's an inherent subconscious bias in a way. However while I don't understand people doing it, it doesn't mean we need to treat them with disrespect, as long as they're respectful in return.

[Marianna546]

I love how some people state that celebrities are trans when they look so feminine and beautiful while this trans doesn't look feminine

[Asker]

I think she does; if someone is really familiar with trans women, they may be able to tell she's trans, but her presence would still register as female.

[MCheetah]

By "some people," you mean Guy6_, right?

[Marianna546]

@MCheetah yes lol

[anon1903]

When you described breasts as knockers, I instantly lost respect for you.

[anon1903]

It's a sublime way of showing you don't respect biological women, let alone Transgender.

[anon1903]

I'm just offended as a woman

[anon1903]

Yeah. Fuck you.

[IesusHominumSalvator]

Dude you are gross, it clearly shows that you would date this dude... and this one looks exactly like a man... Even if it looked like a "real woman", it would still have male bone structure, male behaviors, and that caveman manly jaw, completely disgusting.

[Asker]

If you saw her out and about, you wouldn't think of much of it; in passing, you'd likely have no idea she's trans. Anyway, the question wasn't about dating, and that's why it's not in a section related to dating/relationships. Sure, dating is a part of being accepted, but it's just one part. I don't think dating a woman who's trans would be a bad thing; it would be like being with a woman who knows your anatomy better, increasing her ability to please you. Also, most men really wish their girlfriends/wives were more open to anal, but genetic women don't get the same enjoyment out of it as trans women do, for one simple reason I don't care to explain. Call it gross all you want, I don't care, as I know you'll probably change your mind one day in the future; it happens all the time.

[BoopBoopBeep]

I think once you take off the filter/make up she looks like a dude. At the very least I don't find her the least bit attractive. If she were born female that answer wouldn't change any. Enough special effects and Thanos can look like a chick.

[FriendlyDrugDealer]

I accept people and let them be whoever they want

[Asker]

You're a good man; it's a shame that so much of society is compromised of hateful people.

[FriendlyDrugDealer]

Thanks , it doesn’t really effect me one or another so it’s more like I don’t pay any attention

[Asker]

You're welcome. You seem to be like me, just a man who minds his own business. I'd be embarrassed to stick my nose in things don't involve/effect me; unfortunately, some people aren't ashamed of moving out of their own lane.

[FriendlyDrugDealer]

I suppose lol, different strokes for different folks that’s all lol

[Asker]

Absolutely! 😎

[Anonymous]

It would be easier for her to trick a guy. If she was born a man she'll always be a man to me. I don't care how womanly she looks. Credit to most Trans people about them being upfront about being Trans.

[Asker]

I'm speaking more of just acceptance in society, but of course, dating is a part of that; if someone's accepted as a woman by a heterosexual man, he's obviously more likely to have intimate relations with that person. For me, I don't think of someone like Bruce Jenner as a woman; he's a weirdo with a paraphilia. In stark contrast to how I see someone like Bruce, a trans woman like the one pictured in this post, I view as a woman; if I saw her in a bar/nightclub, I'd probably offer to buy her a drink.

[Opinion Owner]

I guess I really don't care about whether someone is gay, Trans or whatever. I got more important things to worry about. Their journey is their journey. Mine is mine.

[jasco]

he's still a man in eyes. I don't see how changing your looks, chemicals and so on will make you a women.

[Asker]

Your entitled to your opinion, but hormones do change a lot of things (both feminizing and masculinizing). Cosmetic surgery can do a lot too.

[jasco]

mm ok than

[Anonymous]

No still looks like a man.


Trans women at best look like a ugly women or deformed women

[Asker]

If you saw her in a bar/club, you'd just think she's a good looking woman; she doesn't look like a "man" at all. She's curvier than most genetic women, dude.

[Opinion Owner]

Lol yes I would. That big dude. Look at the chin bro.
Again like I said at best they look like a ugly female.

[Asker]

I totally disagree with you, but you're entitled to think whatever you want.

[Opinion Owner]

If you wanna smash lady boys go for it.. im telling you once you stare at them long enough you can see the difference

[OddBeMe]

Generally. If you're trying to blend in as the community, its good to look like that community.

[mathewconfusion]

trans woman are less atractive beacause of there facia looks and body form

[jshm2]

Shit rolled in glitter - is still shit.

[Asker]

I could go on for days about why this comparison doesn't work, but I don't feel like it. I have an "offended" faux-feminist and a transphobe/homophobe who seems to be on every post about trans women -- but you know -- "he isn't attracted to them." Engaging with those two geniuses has helped me understand that constructive dialogue probably isn't happening on this post.

[joeldalton]

No, it looks like a dude in a wig.

[Asker]

If that's what a "dude" looks like you to you, the bar is set pretty low for representing manhood/masculinity in your world. That's a woman to me.

[joeldalton]

You can lie to yourself but you can’t lie to me.

[Asker]

Right, you'd know; I mean, you are spotted on 99% of the posts about trans women on here.

[joeldalton]

Lmao. Don’t project your homosexuality on anyone else. Just own it.

[Asker]

Go ahead, correct me if what I said was wrong.

[joeldalton]

Here’s a newsflash: I don’t have to prove anything.

[Asker]

Newsflash: You're the one trying to tell other people about their owner sexual orientation, while being on top of almost every post about trans women -- yet you claim you aren't into them.

[joeldalton]

So wait, you’re claiming you’re straight?

[dolemite89]

that’s still clearly a guy

[MannyFrs]

umm no
