Hiya CT
You probably need to clarify what you understand by the term 'transexual'
and then - why not just try it for yourself, and find your own answer?

Why shouldn't they have an interest?? Everyone has different tastes, somebody who has breasts and a cock could be incredibly sexy to some men where an ordinary man wouldn't.
celtic tiger, i think you are walking into a dangerous area here. at the very least you run the risk of offending folk who wouldnt dream of questioning your sexual preferances.
perhaps you should swot up on the subject before making assumptions.
I would also say that you are walking a thin line Celtictiger...and im not being condesending in saying that. As a couple who do not look for a certain gender we could see how this post could be taken in the wrong way.
You ask the question, but you fail to put across your own personal views on the subject, so how can anyone else really make comment on what you have asked??? Are you saying that you would never consider being intimate with another man or that you are curious about an experience with another man youself?? Or you have had one and are confused about your feelings???
You need to clarify your question a little hun.
let me make somethink quiet clear i have no intention of offending anybody, why would i discriminate i'm irish "the blacks of Europe" (not my words but from the Committments film..oh no by using this quote does this mean i have offended someone else? The impression i get from lots of these threads is that many people get very defensive. To me my question is valid, of course i could read up on it but thats not what i want to do, i want peoples opinions and a wide range of views...isn't that what a discussion thread is for. As far as i am concerned if i look at a thread and have nothing useful to contribute other that critisim, i will not comment.......well glad i got that of my chest
The point is, you still haven't made your opinion clear yet you are asking for everyone else to tell you theirs. Why don't you tell us yours first, as you asked the question?
You haven't been an actual member of the forum for very long (even though you say you have been watching the site for a while) and you have managed to start a couple of very contentious threads.
Celtic Tiger gives a clue to his sexuality in his ad, and his previous posts

I agree with Satin that you should not assume straight away that CT has any motive other than exploring sexuality and trying to learn about something that he does not understand.
I also feel strongly that before answering questions like this on the forum, it is important to find out the attitude of the questioner.
I would say this to you CT - people who come on here do not sit around waiting to answer questions to satisfy idle curiosity. They are on here doing something. If you want them to stop what they are doing, and spend time answering your question, you are expected to 'read up' about the subject first.
If you show a genuine interest in learning about new things then people are prepared to put a bit of effort into giving answers. Sitting on your arse asking questions and expecting others to put all the time and effort in is seen as sheer laziness.
The effort you have put in to this string is reflected in the answer you have - Men who fancy transexuals do so because they are sexy.

Being a transvestite and bi as well I can tell you there is a thrill of wanting sex with trans. I read somewhere that men who had anal sex with a woman could(I say could) be regarded as somewhat having homosexual it may follow that this idea of sex with transsexuals is an extention of that. On bondage for example it is the feeling of being restrained and helpless that appeals to people and having the inabitty to see or speak
slightly off topic kind off did anyone see the programme on television last nite on bbc1 about the police and mainly traffic cops around manchester way .
and that lorry driver who was pissed laying in the middle of the road wearing womens clothes , big burly truck driver dressed as a girl highly amusing but no yorkie bar in sight .
i wonder if he uses this website and if he does hello if you are reading this , i always thought that lorry drivers were a strange bunch all those long days and nights on the road by yourself must do weird things to you .
back on topic now as a man i am not the least bit attracted to transexuals in anyway the majority of them look silly with there burly 6ft frames and bulky legs n arms in a dress or skirt but thats just my oponion and im sure they are all nice people .
mq its not that complicated really,but i do understand why people get confused.
as a v quick explanation(cause its takes me ages on a keyboard)
transexual: a person m or f who feel there trapped in the wrong body.
transvestite: a person who enjoys dressing and sometimes acting like a female,but is happy being a man,tho wishes they could wear skirts etc in public without being harrased.(just trying to explain how i feel)
this is in no way a consise explanation and only how i feel and from wat ive learned speaking to other tv/ts people.
i have always said that if anyone has any questions i will be glad to try and answer them the best i can,i cant be offended because ive been a transvestite from the age of 11 and have heard every insult there is.
admitidly some comments still hurts but it gets easier with age to forget such comments.
one thing if you meet or go out with a tranny when there dressed never call them by there male name or mate etc,cause when there dressed no matter how other people see them inside and out we/they consider themselves female.
there hope that helps.
any questions please feel free to ask.

ps. my female name is dee or denise
You see most Transvestites are not gay. I happen to be bi. However the question asked is not offensive to me and I feel if people are offfeneded by such as that they are really too sensitive and should get a life. And I dressed up from age 11 too. My name is Patricia(Pat)
I have been reminded to get back to the original question:
From CT's posts, I think his original question was:
"Why are so many straight men, who would never consider having sex with another man, happy to have sex with a transexual"
The reason I orginally asked for clarification of CT's understanding of a transexual is because a post op transexual IS a woman in a womans body, so for a straight bloke there is no conflict, other than his own preconceptions. (I changed that from prejudices).
If CT thinks of anyone (male or female) who cross dresses in any way and for any reason as a transexual, then it becomes a far more wide ranging question.

And rather deep too. Howver i actually do not worry why i do it- I just enjoy it and what else can matterin this I am a woman trapped in a man's body is of littel bother to me. it is about enjoying what you are as long as nobody is harmed. And I consider being a bi-TV is not harming anyone.
can i just say i think im a bit of satin and ossiealf.
The reason I like women, bi guys and bi girls, cd and tv, is because there is a feminine element in all of them. I have not had sex with a full transexual, but would like to. I am not turned on by hard core gay guys or hard core lessies, although I do find most of them good social company.
