Do you think that people who get sex changes should have to make it clear to those they are planning to have intercourse with that they have had a sex change (i.e. reveal their birth sex to their "partners")?
I think it would be unethical if this information was kept from their "partner." I wouldn't like to have sex with a "woman" who used to be a man, just because that is not my preference. I know, however, that many "post-ops" do not disclose their birth sex to their "partners."
I guess this is a question of privacy versus ethical disclosure.

I've never known of post-op transsexuals *not* disclosing this status. I wouldn't want to make it a law or anything, but I do think it's just good form. I also think a woman who is infertile or has had a hysterectomy, or a man who's had a vasectomy or has to take Viagra, ought to let their partner know. A lie is a terrible way to start a relationship.
And by the way, if I cared enough for the person for this issue to come up, I'd still be with them.

The Bible does not point out transsexualism or intercourse exchange, those are concepts that are some distance greater cutting-edge than the textual content of The Bible. to those that view transsexualism as a assertion that "God made a mistake": i do no longer view my situation as a mistake. i think that i'm transsexual for a reason. What that reason is, i do no longer know. i can guess that it is so as that i can act as a vehicle for coaching human beings approximately attractiveness of people who're diverse. Edit: Jabbah, the place interior the Bible does it say that vehicle aspects are an abomination? i did no longer think of that they have been invented in that factor physique.

If you are having sex with someone just for that purpose then it is none of your business. If you are building a relationship and getting to know the person before sleeping with them, you needn't worry because they will tell you about it just as anyone with a birth defect will eventually share that history.
You sound as if you are concerned and maybe you should keep your pants on then.

Is it considered unethical not to disclose if you had plastic surgery? Or how many people you have slept with in the past? Or if you have a kid? Yeah, maybe it is the right thing for someone to tell you, but if they don't i don't' think it's unethical, just upsetting

yes they should tell their partner the truth. Becuase if the truth comes out another way then there will be probably horrible repurcusions for liying.
by theway, DA HA: you idiot. read the effing question nimrod. it wasn't whether or not you thought that transsexuals were wrong. it was whether or not people who get sex changes should have to make it clear. you make others that have your beliefs look really stupid. of course there may be something to that.

No! The other person is attracted to the person he/she is currently experiencing: WYSIWYG!!!!
If the transsexual person wants to talk about it as the relationship progresses that's a different thing.
If making babies is important perhaps the subject should be raised.
People have genders and sexual preferences so in my view it doesn't make any difference at all.
If a trans person is able to pass in the intimacy of the bedroom, what does it matter?

Yes, a trans-gendered person should reveal their old identity. Here is the minimum your partner should know before getting naked (yes, one night stands too): name (first is good enough), biological gender, STD history (have you ever had one, do you have one now), and marrital status. If they are hiding their gender, what else are they lying about? You are the most important person in your life, be safe.

No. It is no more "unethical" than not telling them you've had an appendix taken out. If you are that Phobic, you really should sit home at night and not have sex, ever.

A person of transgender IS the sex they they show themselves to be. They are born mind, soul and heart female (M-F) and only need to correct the deformity to be all that they can be...like a child with a cleft lip!!!!

Ethically speaking, someone who has changed genders should tell their partner. It's the right thing to do.
