I guess if I inadvertently fall in love with a transsexual, then sure, I might go along with, though I admit that it would probably be strange to get my head around. I personally would prefer my lover to not have a penis, but I'd also imagine that sexual reassignment surgery looks like an absolute train wreck down there.
I voted yes, but it's really hard for me to just decide from the top of my head. Anyway, I'll most likely not be attracted to any transsexuals, not that I'm 100% against it. I sure hope the girl I'm interested in now has always been a girl :\

Sure, but no one should be in any way condemned for not being ok with dating/having sex with a trans person. Live and let live, but don't get on a high horse about it.

As with Dean, my missus wouldn't be too happy, either.

I don't think my wife would be too keen on me dating anyone... I can't see "it's okay, she used to be a man" is going to help.

Sure, they got operated surgically in the breast dept, but in the genitals, no!! |
A shemale would not be a full blown transsexual. A Sean Tranesexual would be a person who gets these kind of things confused.

No - a transexual is a person who has undergone full gender reassignment surgery to be fully changed from one gender to another.

Enlighten me then...

Certainly, transexuals are people whose mental gender identity don't match the genitals they were born with and have undergone surgical and hormonal alterations. Transvestites are just people who like to dress up in clothing that doesn't match their genders.

OK,, I used the word transvestite a little lightly, it appears
(toldya I was anything but an expert in the matter  )
but are ladyboys or shemales (as seen in pronoflicks) classified as full-blown transexuals??

I mean, if you are allowed to mentally decide what mental gender you are... then I'm neither. f**k all you males and females.
I mean, if you can change your gender from one to the other, is there a way I could become neither? Cause seriously f**k being a man and f**k being a woman.
excuse my language. Or dont. Or do neither.

Perfectly explained 
Just because a person decides they enjoy, or feel comfortable cross-dressing, it has nothing necessarily to do with their sexuality or gender alignment.

tough question... Maybe. I don't know. No vote.
I guess I'd like if anything to reproduce but then again if I was with someone who originally and still was a girl and couldn't get pregnant I'd probably care less, but then again there's always those women who get pregnant with the couple's baby and sh*t.
But I honestly don't know, I never dated one... well that I know was a TS at least.... |
Reproducing is bad. Why make more children? There are so many children without parents? But then again I can't judge cause I'll probably never have kids. I'll never be able to think of them as more important than music so I should not be a dad. Haha
But to the topic, if they could trick me into thinking they were a woman past the natural smell of a man, the extra hair, the penis, and everything, and they were post-op... I'd be cool with it. My problem is that dick's just gross me out. Dick's are gross. I can't see why all women aren't gay.

No, simply because it's not within my sexuality to be physically attracted to someone like that. However, I am in absolute full support of trans people. They have it the hardest out of any sexual minority today.
