that's the problem with this "equality" thing. All of a sudden sub categorizing someone for the gender/sexuality THEY ARE is inappropriate and our PC culture allows them to whole-heartedly identify how they choose. The responsibility for identification now falls on the searcher and not the sought. "False advertising" (so to speak) is a thing of the past, because, psychologically speaking, 'if they are a women/man at heart, nothing is false about presenting themselves as such.' What a load of shit. I have no problem with any person identifying how they choose, but something is weird about the power-dynamic here. The identifier has assumed control of the social structure that defines them, sounds empowering, but in do-process enslaves the structure and forces a no-ask-no-tell culture for the beholders. Point it out: be crucified; ask a persons gender: be insensitive; turn someone down based on those questions: be sexist. When you think about how this power structure has developed, it's really not all that empowering for those transgenders now is it...to identify so deeply that biological truths are negated and mind over body becomes the mantra. This is okay to an extent, until you introduce the prospect of body-shaming and how it contradicts trans-empowerment.

Or you could just meet people the old fashioned way, through friends.

Forever alone...

There are two schools of thought that people subscribe to these days. Either "everyone is the same" or "everyone is different and that's ok."

There's still debate about if a person should even be made aware of whether or not the person they're dating is transgender. The question was never really answered and people are too scared to try.

try meeting women the old fashioned way.

You should really be on Tinder. It's way better.

Please wait...
