    Some of the conflict in the thread about Jenner made me curious on people's positions on whether or not they'd have sex with a transexual, mostly because it'd be interesting to see how hypocritical some people who claim they fully support and are okay with people like Jenner.


    I wouldn't.


    Edit: forgot to add a poll. Is there a way to edit one in?

    I'd try and be up front

    But would end up being anal about it.

    I'm not completely familiar, do they have a penis or a vagina? If they've got a vagina, whether or not it's been acquired through surgery I think I could get past it.

    I wouldn't really consider it hypocritical if someone says they're okay with someone being trans yet wouldn't sleep with them, that's kind of like saying all the straight people who support same sex marriage are hypocrites because they wouldn't sleep with someone of the same gender! :pac:

    You can fully support and be okay with something without having to be actively interested in it. I fully support straight people's rights to get married, but that doesn't mean I'd sleep with a man! :P

    As for the question though, I'd like to think I would be open minded enough to be with a trans person if it was someone who I found attractive and had a connection with! The person they used to be wouldn't play a role in my mind it would be all about what they identify as now!

    I know, I mean more in the sense of along the lines of considering them 'complete' male/females after their operations etc.

    Once all the right bits are in all the right places it wouldn't matter to me whether they got there naturally or through other means!

    One night stand, sure. Doesn't matter what they've got down there.

    For a long-term relationship, I don't know for if it's before they've had the operation. To be honest, I don't think I could (I want to have my children with the father of my child, although I completely understand that this may not happen for so many reasons). If they haven't, then definitely no.

    I remember hearing about a couple where both were transgender, meaning they got to have their own biological children between them. I thought it was nice. Not relevant here, but a nice story none-the-less.

    "People like Jenner"... jesus if she didn't feel like a freak before her surgery... honestly? :pac:

    I don't think it'd be hypocritical to support someone while at the same time saying you have no interest in them sexually like that's all they are as a person - sex, something for the weekend.

    I wouldn't be interested in having sex with someone because they're transgender, and I don't think I'd want to have sex with them knowing they are transgender either. It's not so much got to do with what's between their thighs, but what's between their ears, and I just don't think we would be sexually compatible.

    Nope, just couldn't. It's probably un pc of me but no. I have no problem with their right to be transgender but for me, its a no.

    Nope. I like my women to have naturally occurring oestrogen! ;)

    They are not biologically women. They're trans women, which for me puts them (at best) in a category separate from both bio males and females.

    I have no issue with their personal decision to live as a trans woman.

    But for me to be attracted to them physically, that would require me to be something other than hetro, which I'm not! :)

    Nah, it would be a fairly gigantic sexual turn off for me to know they used to have a cock and balls.

    I fully support gay people but I wouldn't have sex with them either (since I'm straight)

    Why do you think if you are unwilling to have sex with a group you support you are a hypocrite?

    Thread is just turning into an excuse to bash transgender folk, we don't want that here.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test
