Transexuals in Dublin

    Made this thread a few days ago, but I don't know where it went! Is there a pub or a club where transexuals hang out in Dublin? How can I tell if they are transexuals or not. Do you think a 20 year old college student would have a chance pulling any on a night out? Any tips!?:)

    Thanks.

    I deleted the thread because you were essentially looking for an escort service but without the cost. The purpose of this forum isn't to provide a hookup service. Now I'll leave this thread open to see if anyone wants a discussion on transsexual friendly spots in Ireland but on a strictly "keep it clean" basis.

    Sorry Stark, I didn't mean to break the charter.

    If I recall correctly there are a few cross dressing club’s that have nights either every month or every other week in Dublin I have not been so I cant say if many TS’s attend, to be honest your chances of pulling a TS is probably about the same as if you approached any other person just looking to pull :rolleyes: If I where you I would stick to the personals

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    It might interest you that I am the webmistress of http://www.tranniehaven.com
    We are looking at doing a social night once a month in a bar in town starting March 09
    Aside from that I've also put together an LGBT dating site based in Ireland which will cover the LGBT spectrum under one site. It will be launched early March. It is on line now in a test format, for initial reaction and just needs to be tweeked a tad.

    Hi Louise thanks for replying, and thanks to everybody else for their input as well.

    What I'm about to say next will sound shallow of me but I feel that honesty is the best policy. I am really only sexually interested in very feminine pre-op transsexuals, does your group include such members? In an effort to redeem myself somewhat I should point out that I'm not only interested in a sexual relationship and would love something more serious.

    Thanks,
    Mike.

    It depends on who turns up on the night really and we have no control over that. There are loads more transvestites than transexuals so you need to take that into account. Age varies from early twenties to fifties really. The most feminine would be those in their twenties who have been on hormones for some time.
    I will post information on the board here and on Tranniehaven.com when this night is running.

    Um. Ok. On one hand, I know a lot of people are very contemptuous of people who are perceived as being fetishists regarding transfolks. And I get the impression that the T group mentioned by Louise is a general support group rather than a meat market for people who are attracted to transpeople.

    However, I do know that it can be VERY difficult for both pre and post op women and men to find somebody who really appreciates them so there is definitely a need to be in some little way positive about encouraging people to be more open about relationships between non-trans and trans people (I would like to use words like cis and GID but I am guessing people generally understand words like trans and non trans better).

    Thanks Louise please keep us updated.

    Shoegirl I understand completely what you are saying and I do acknowledge that I am in a way "exploiting" transsexuals for their unique positions, but it is more than a sexual thing for me. If my desire for a relationship was purely physical I could frequent one of the many transsexual escorts in Dublin. Most people are attracted to others on a physical level initially, I don't think I am much different. Trannsexuals are more than a "fetish" for me.

    Most transexuals tend to avoid sex until the get the SRS. I doubt any TS would enjoy being objectivified to the point of being a mere "fetish". You see,it's because of people like you that so many of us do wait until we have the SRS before having relationships.If you ever do meet a TS I hope you will maintain your honesty is the best policy,rather than attempting to exploit them. Your best hope is with the drag queens in trannie haven or whatever it's called,TS tend to be too intelligent to be exploited or manipulated.

    I think I am being judged unfairly here. I like girls with penises. I'm no different than lads who seek out girls with big breasts, or long legs. Attraction is usually physical at first, especially in a night-club or pub situation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,346 ✭✭✭Rev Hellfire


    I don't think you are getting unfairly judged.

    When fellas speaks of having a preference for women with a particular characteristic they may be naturally inclined to look more favourable on someone who meets said criteria. But they rarely if ever set out to met people with those sole attributes to the exclusion of other women.

    You come across (perhaps unfairly) as looking for bit of walking meat which hits your kink.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 134 ✭✭InTranceWeTrust


    I never said anything about excluding other women. I've slept with plenty, but in all my years I've never had the chance to meet a TS.

    Aww well then that's totally different, of course we'd all like to be part of your social experiment to get your little kink out of your system just so you can go back to sleeping with all those plenty of women and have something to tell your grandkids about when you're finally that old that admitting it will be no less embarrassing than how you constantly p!ss yourself everytime you sneeze.

    Now this is a classic attempt to currie favour by trying to come across as a "genuine" guy but it's actually a total contradiction. You want something more "serious" than a sexual relationship but only if it's with a pre-op transsexual but what happens after she gets SRS? would the relationship (as if it'd actually ever be one) end because she no longer has the dangly bit of bait that attracted you in the first place? chances are YEAH and that my darling is why NO real transsexual would EVER waste their time on someone like you because it benefits us in no way whatsoever other than to waste our time working on a relationship that will ultimately fail unless we give up on our eventual goal just to please people like you by keeping the part that we don't want...In someways we'd be lucky though because by getting SRS technically we'd actually be getting rid of two pricks at once.

    LMFAO! I literally did LOL when I read this bit!

    No of course not. If I had genuine feelings for the girls I would not terminate the relationship over something as trivial as a penis. Especially not if getting rid of it made her happy.

    But this is what I do not understand; If this is the case then why does it matter if the girl is pre-op,post-op or was born with the female sex from the outset?
    I hope you don't mind me asking but,are you bi-curious? If so perhaps it might be a good idea to experiment with a guy as to me it seems you are a bit sexually confused/repressed judging by this thread.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 134 ✭✭InTranceWeTrust


    I'm just trying to find my perfect woman like every man is. Some TS girls are happy having penises. If I fell in love with a TS with a penis and she told me she wanted to have it removed then I wouldn't stop her. I'd want her to be happy, and it wouldn't change the way I felt about her.

    Also if I fell in love with a post-op TS, or a born female from the start, then I wouldn't fight it just because she didn't have a penis. Sexually I'd find it more attractive if she did, but in terms of true love its a pretty trivial matter.

    As for me being bi-curious I have kissed a boy as well as received and gave oral sex. I didn't like it. I'm attracted to feminine features/mannerisms*.

    *Not sure if this is the right word here, but it'll have to do until I think of something better.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 166 ✭✭Butterfly baby


    No of course not. If I had genuine feelings for the girls I would not terminate the relationship over something as trivial as a penis. Especially not if getting rid of it made her happy.

    You keep refering to the penis as a "trivial" feature but it's obviously not trivial to you otherwise you wouldn't be starting threads specifically looking for that feature. I'd be of the opinion that it's actually the most important feature you require in your prospective partner. I think Rev Hellfire hit the nail on the head there. Either that or else it's not us you're trying to convince that you only see the penis as a trivial matter, it's yourself you're trying to convince. I agree with Otaku Girl, you do come across very much as obviously sexually confused/repressed.

    Right thanks for all your help guys. I've decided not to frequent this thread anymore as I've found I've had to defend myself and explain my sexual choices. I'm moving to Spain where there are plenty of sexy TS girls who would love to have a man like me to appreciate them. Goodbye.


    hahahaha :D:D

    You see there's your problem right there, your assumption that we're all so desperate for attention and validation that all you'd have to do is post few well reharsed, well chosen words and we'd be climbing over each other to date you, Well I hate to break it to you there love but guys like you are a dime a dozen so we can afford to be as choosy as we like. You all seem to be of the belief that we should be in some way ethernally thankful that you're even willing to spend time in our company but it's actually the reverse because the truth is you need us more than we need you.

    This is an Irish forum though so its not very relevant.

    You spelled transsexual wrong, two s's it's trans sexual. Tran sexual makes it sound like someone who's attracted to people with a Vietnamese last name.


    and "tranny" is a fairly horrible slur by the way.
