Theoretically (I'm anything but an expert), it seems that a transexual is an "operated-upon" transvestite (shemale or ladyboy), which would mean there are no dicks left, no?
 
Sooo we're going back to the dirty word thread and restate your choice:
real vagina or false (carved-out) vagina LOL
 
I'm a lesbian anyway (only like women)ApproveStar

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....

No means no, but I'm happy Textbook has such an intense interest in your vagina. Tongue

How can any of us forget you had a serious relationship with a transsexual ergo, our misgivings about such must amount to blind bigotry through experiential ignorance. Thank you for allowing us to express this aforementioned 'blind bigotry' in more palatable terms. Blow it out your ass with my regards etc LOL

I believe that based on the subject matter it is pretty self-explanatory.

I can't force you to, but explanations are kind of the point of the thread.

No. I want a more or less normal relationship in my view. This does not fit the criteria.

I would tell them. There's always the possibility that they would find out by accident, but more importantly, not telling is kinda like telling your transsexual partner that they're a dirty secret they're ashamed of. If I were TS, I wouldn't want to be with anybody like that.

Family and friends shouldn't enter into it.  Unless someone told them, they wouldn't need to know.

Nah, I was never into dudes. Not saying that to sound manly, it's actually the case.
 
Re: the poll question, I was thinking longterm relationship. If we're talking one-night stand, who the hell cares. It's only in an LTR scenario that this would be a thing.
 
The other killer is envisioning yourself telling your family/friends. Most people are super duper freaked out by that.

Yes, but only female to male transsexuals.  No, wait.

As a potential partner, I'd be more concerned about sexual functionality than reproductive capability, but personal compatibility ranks above that when dating to seek a long term relationship.

So, personally, affirmative for dating, hell, I'd have considered dating guys when I was single, but I never sought that out nor met any men that I was interested in romantically.

SE: Well that happens sometimes. But I'm asking if you would.
 
To general assembly: Who knows, we quite probably have a transgendered person (or several) here on PA. I don't know of one, but it's quite likely with all the users in the database. Perhaps they're not out. In any case, don't talk about them as though they're not here.

Tami: It's a social issue. Transsexuals are alternative members of society outside the mainstream etc. They would like to be equal and integrated etc. To fully integrate, people need to be able to view them as viable potential partners. Are people in general able to do that or are they doomed to be forever on the fringes?
 
In the last case, I would recommend them to date transsexuals of the opposite sex...
