With all the coverage on TV and online recently, I just wanted to ask you guys a question - would you date a transgender person? Reasoning is cool, saying yes or no is cool, just don't put any dumb in the comments
If sexuality is a choice, then how come people are gay in countries where homosexuality = execution
Why would people choose to undergo public ridicule by coming out as gay when it was still a taboo thing in society that many people frowned upon and for which those who admitted to it were clearly mistreated
Of course it's not comparable to tattoos in the general sense of "comparable," but it's technically comparable insofar as it falls within the same category. And I see no compelling argument that sexual orientation, unlike other preferences or deal breakers or w/e, must be uniquely fixed.
Like, in an informal discussion I'd have no problem saying I wouldn't date a trans person, but in the context of a serious discussion I think that claim reveals a pretty unhealthy collective mindset.

weird how straighties don't wanna talk about sexuality being a nature over nurture thing until the topic of dating transgendered people comes up
I can see the compairison which is why I totally wouldnt have a problem if they had surgery, but I still think having a pee pee isnt really comparable to having tattoos
It's totally understandable that a person might have some subconscious aversion to dating a person that has some strong association to a gender they're not compatible with.
And like, yeah with enough effort you might overcome those schemas which prevent your attraction to a transgender person. But quite frankly it's not worth my effort to push someone through overcoming that.
