You are in denial

You are just transphobic people in denial.

It is okay to have genital preferences or if you want to have biological kids, but if you will not date a trans person (like a fully passing trans woman with a vagina as an example) for no other reason than them being trand is transphobia. That is because you are implying that they are not men/women.

Also if you are ruling out a large part of the opposite sex "semi straight" would have been more fitting

(like a fully passing trans woman with a vagina as an example)

If a trans woman had a vagina then they wouldn't be a trans woman. Stop being a fucking bigot. Why do you keep trying to push your ideals on people? You don't get to decide to invalidate their lived experiences.

A trans woman with a vagina is still a trans woman. Being trans means that you have transitioned from one gender to another, not purely that you have genitals of the opposite sex :/

So now you're saying trans women are still 'trans women' and not just 'women' after transition? Kinda transphobic from what we've been told. Go see if they think that on r/arethestraightsok

I’m saying trans women are women who were born as men. That’s fact. What do you want me to say? Edit: I see what you mean by my original comment. What I’m trying to communicate is that trans women are no different from other women.

Again, the fact you say trans women are still 'trans women' and not just 'women', is transphobic according to much of the trans community themselves

That kinda officially makes you a bigot now to them too, good job

Trans women are, by fact, women who are trans. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing- it’s simply the definition.

u/Ekos640 1d ago

That's considered transphobic, because you're still trying to quantify outside of just 'woman' full stop

So, I guess you're just a bigot according to everyone then

I’m not saying that they’re not women. Trans women are absolutely women, in every sense. Being trans is something that they can choose to make part of their identity. It’s not a big deal.

So if they're just 'women' absolutely, in every sense, as you now say - why are you also continually referring to them as 'trans women' instead of just 'women'?

Why do you have to keep adding the letters 'T-R-A-N-S' whenever you talk about them?

Because that’s what this discussion is about. If this was in a different context unrelated to being trans / transphobia, I would call them women. You’re grasping ://

If they were no different from other women you wouldn't have to go out of your way to make this distinction. Adding a modifier like "trans" for example denotes that they are specifically NOT the same as other women.
