I was just wondering how many transsexualss people know, and how well.
I know two, both in the US and both computer programmers who went male -> female. One is pre-op, one post, and i am good friends with the former, acquaintances with the latter.
The girl who's had her operation had a very understanding wife (she knew of his intentions prior to getting married, but it took a couple of decades to get around to it) whereas my other friend's hispanic wife doesn't understand and their marriage is facing very difficult times. I hope things turn out okay for the pair of them.
I hate to make sweeping generalisations, but I have to admit that I've never met a transsexual that I've found attractive, and doubt I ever will. But then i don't find black or east-asian people attractive either. I was at the polling station last week and saw a couple, obviously very much in love, he was a lard & HGVs type 22st. bloke, she was a tiny vietnamese girl, about 10 years older than him. I welcome diversity, but think I'll leave it to other folks all the same.
What do you think on these sorts of matters?

You obviously don't know these people very well at all.
What you are talking about is transsexuality. A completely different bag to transvestism. I recommend you get some education before you come on here professing to know about a subject you clearly haven't got a clue about.
I recommend you do not pursue this subject in the way you are at the moment. In fact I insist on it

Oh, i'm not judging them, as I said I have friends who are transsexuals (and of course many black & asian friends) but just that I didn't find them attractive. I think you misunderstood. I am sure you have friend you don't find attractive too, do you not? I was wanting to know what other people thought on the subject, that's all.

No, I don't think you do - really I don't think you want to know at all

Your very interested. Especially since you've just joined?
Planning on writing a story somewhere?

Yes, sorry that's what I meant. I do get muddled sometimes don't I :P
So... why bother even mentioning a topic that you are "muddled" about

:evil: :evil:That's not true at all. I wouldn't have written about it if I didn't care! but as we have one transsexual (is there an abbreviation for this like?) on the boards here and Rebecca has been talking to me a lot recently about her wife, I wanted to offer some more valuable words of advice. Please don't all jump on me for getting the terminology confused :-/

how do you know what a HGV driver looks like?
Well one lives around the corner, though he doesn't look like they stereotype, so isn't a good example to use.

Well actually, I'm not lost for words at all, but it's just that all the stuff I want to write would almost certainly get me banned.

Well the best person to tell you that ...would be her!
Yes indeed, but not the only person. She doesn't have the time nor should she need to tell me everything.
To all:
If people here are just going to abuse folks when they ask for opinions on sensitive matters, I'm not surprised you shun all the new folks away. Please show some courtesy.
I grant you my original post ended up being rather rambling and I changed the topic three times as i wrote. I should have posted two topics. In fact, this newbie-bashing/flame fest thread should probably be locked and I'll try again. bluexxx, would you do the honours?

You asked our opinions in the most insensitive way possible.
You did indeed get a range of opinions, don't blame the forum if you do not like what you got in reply. I suggest you look at your own attitudes towards these subjects and learn how to address sensitive subjects in a SENSITIVE manner
FFS
I for one am very offended by your post. I wouldn't mind being called abusive if I actually did call you a wanker rather than just thinking it..... doh.... I said it out loud didn't I

I think you’ll find that a thread, worded and laid out the way in which yours was, would have received the same treatment whether it was a new member posting or an old one (although I very much doubt that an established member would have posted something which had an exceptionally high risk of causing offence to so many people)
Perhaps the best advice is from Happy Cats

I'm sure youre not prejudiced but it could be read that way. Just try to think whether you could be offending anyone before you post
