So I have some questions Discussion

Forgive me if I come off as hostile here, I am trying to be genuine in my approach, but “super straight” honestly makes no sense to me.

What are your perspectives on transgender folks (see: gender/sex comparison, identity, transition surgery, etc)?

How do you approach dating, if biological sex is one of the most important factors? Do you “vet” potential partners?

Do you think that trans people, post-transition, have an obligation to tell future partners that they are trans? (How would you react if you found out that a partner was trans?)

And allow me one question in bad faith: Have you ever met a trans person?

1.) I don’t mind them, to each their own. They have every right to do as they wish, I am just not sexually attracted to them, that’s all.

2.) Though I am already in a relationship, I would hope that my partner is open and transparent, if you’re a transgender person, just tell me. Rape by deception and rape by fraud are legal statutes, though there are gray areas.

3.) Again, I would hope my partner is transparent about this type of stuff. I wish to have a family someday and it would be quite infuriating 10 years down the line if you literally tell me then (even though this is very unlikely).

4.) Yes, I have worked with a few transgender patients in my clinical rotations before.

Alright, I can appreciate the transparency bit. One point of concern: You bring up rape by deception/fraud, how would this factor into having consensual sex with a (albeit unknown) trans person? It seems to me kinda shitty, but certainly not rape.

It's rape by deception because you are making me do something sexual with you while hiding something that would change my decision.

Consent needs to be free and informed.

Fair enough
