No one will ever find me attractive I guess ¯\_(ツ_/¯

I feel like you're painting an understandable position as unreasonable and possibly hateful when that's not necessarily so. We do not live in a heavenly realm where people have zero expectations or preferences regarding their partners' genitals.But hold up... I see some of the posts saying "but I'm gay/straight and when I date someone I expect a penis/vagina!"
I mean sure, but if your romantic relationship boils down to a penis then I think you are a very close minded person.
For hooking up I can understand, some are size queens and that's okay. Fair game, but for anything other than that I don't get it. The same for straight guys.
It's also interesting that many of them in there are from the same crowd that preaches that racial preferences is not racism. I am seeing a correlation...
Anyways, not worth to engage with those people. They dwell in ignorance like a pig in mud. It's what they know and what they like. Can't change them. You can bathe and perfume a pig all day long but when they see mud, they go and roll in it.

Well yeah those people are ridiculous.To clarify, I think it's fine to have a preference. I'm mostly responding to people saying they'll never find a penis/vagina attractive because that'd be "unnatural" for a straight/gay person. Calling anything natural/unnatural bothers the hell out of me when talking about sex and I'm surprised it doesn't bother everyone in the LGBT community considering it's history.

Yep.Nah that's just cynical and sad, I assure you that ignorant people can change. Tbf GAF sucks at handling ignorance in a way that would foster a change in attitude. (I'm not talking about people being purposefully hateful here of course).
rational expectation
So me and my prom date decided on costumes.
I'm going to be a lumberjack, he's going to be little red riding hood.
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh

There's something very strange to me when someone says a person NEEDS to have a vagina or penis or else it's a deal breaker because that is not something I notice when I look at someone. My friend ardently believes he needs to be with someone with a penis or it won't work for him and it's like... there are strap ons? Sex isn't some binary "penis goes in hole" experience.
Besides weren't you the dude that said you can't talk to/date white people because it's too much work for you to talk about your situation and/or you just assume they can't relate because they're white? Or something to the effect previously transcribed
he was venting.
Um okay but like if you're a gay male you're attracted to the sex organs of another man i.e. The dick so like it's not crazy to expect a penis and maybe you really like it so you need it to be attached to the person you're interested in. This ain't a "no blacks or asians" situation. A strap-on does not feel like a dick and that's a fact.

Wait there's a strap on that shoots "cum?"
Thanks GAF

Oh, don't you worry about that, there are plenty of people who would want to date you! I know several of them, they're just a bit hard to find, but don't get discouraged!
Also, don't define your worth by what other people are attracted to! You're valuable regardless what those people say.
Frankly, anytime there is a trans dating thread on OT or anywhere for that matter it is bound to upset the fuck out of me and make me want to bang my head against a wall, the way it is framed as deceptive and as forcing others to engage in acts they might not want to is when the discourse has been bogged down beyond saving.
And may I remind you GAF is one of the better places to discuss trans issues, I don't even want to know how worse it is anywhere else.
It's hard to not worry when I already feel ugly because of the whole trans thing and then see a thread full of people straight up saying that no matter how hard I try they would never date someone like me. Even saying they wouldn't date the prettiest woman if they had been a man at one point. I have a lot of work to do with regards to my self-esteem and this doesn't help <.<
Believe it or not I'm handling this a lot better today than I normally would. I'm not crying yet
Yes.Wait there's a strap on that shoots "cum?"
driggonny I would totally date you
Please don't cry.
Sis trust me YOU are the one that wouldn't wanna date someone like 90% of these gaffers lmao like...
...

...why?
I'm not quite as sexy as my panda avatar would suggest
True. They don't deserve me hairflip

Why not?
My heart hurts. I had a massive reply to a lot of this but deleted it, not because I was being mean, or immoral. Simply because everything died down and now is calm. This community is fantastic and I hope it stays that way. I think what everyone needs to remember is we all have our own opinions, views, morals. We are all different, and thats a wonderful thing. We are blessed with both sides of the gay spectrum, as well as have transgender people with us. We can learn so much from one another, as in views, perspectives and other things. Knowledge is a powerful thing. I respect everyone here, and my hope is, regardless of view points, is we continue to stick with one another, because together we're stronger.
Anyway I'm on day 6 of no sleep.
I feel transgender people are a beautiful storm. Emphasis on beautiful because they are extremely beautiful people. They are fighting to become who they are, and because the parts don't match the soul, doesn't make them bad at all. I give major respect because it's such a hard thing to deal with, people, emotional aspects, and learning to live again. I seriously wish I could hug you. I talked to a guy transitioning to a female and it was incredible experience.
Please don't cry. I feel everyone here has amazing intentions and they truly care, it's just everyone has their own opinions, morals, and views on things. Doesn't make them bad at all honestly. I find it as amazing because we can learn from each other, and every so often, you give them a perspective they would have never imagined.
You are beautiful the way you are, and you need to learn to love who you are. Screw what others think because there is someone out there wishing for someone like you.
The whole "unnatural" thing though is a no no. What is unnatural is creamed corn. Like fuck, that shouldn't exist. The way people view the world, can be a double edge sword. If someone doesn't prefer it that way, its ok, doesn't mean the person is heartless, it just means when you find someone, it'll mean all the more. <3. You were given this life for a reason, because you are strong enough to live through it, and it will be an incredible journey.
Love love love love love love love this.
I could go on a depressive rant as to why not, but I don't think that would be healthy for me. When you're told enough times that you're not good enough it tends to sink in and feel true. I'm working through it.
Thank you. <3 I'm actually doing much better these past few days than I was a week ago. I hate to admit it, but I was genuinely contemplating suicide.
But I'm okay now. I'll be okay. I'm doing better and my mood is on an upward trajectory despite that thread. I've joined a great transgender community that has helped me a lot.
Even if I never find love at least I'll eventually have boobies I can play with when I'm bored. ¯\_(ツ_/¯
