So this isn't really a rant but I wanted it to fall under the rant rules for discussion:
If you were to meet a transgender male, were attracted to them as a straight male, would you consider dating them?
There are a few things to keep in mind obviously:
For me it is about being feminine. I am a straight male, and have tons of gay friends that I have chatted with about this. I find some transsexuals to be extremely attractive, especially if they are post op. Dunno maybe a fetish?
But what would you do? I still am not sure if I was faced with the situation, I know OkCupid likes to match me a lot with transgendered. I don't know if I would hold it against them on day on the fact that they are actually born male and get tired of the "fakeness" of putting so much effort into appearance. Obviously they want to be who they want to be. What kind of people date transgender people? What kind of people do Transgender people date?
I find it all very fascinating.
With the whole Kaitlyn Jenner thing it has apparently been a trendy topic lately too so I figured I would bring it up here to be discussed.

There are a few things to keep in mind obviously:
- Cannot have children without adoption
- The effort it takes the transgendered male to maintain the feminine look through drug therapies and operations.
- Post and pre op
- Social judgements
