What would you do if you girlfriend/boyfriend told you she/he was a transsexual???????????

Answer 1

I will be like "good one".

Answer 2

I would first be surprised. Then wary.

Then evaluate what, if anything, has changed.

Then talk and see the person every day for a week to assure myself than nothing HAS changed.

Then ask a lot of questions about it. Then let the relationship continue as before.

Answer 3

I wouldnt mind if I am in love with that person. I am a MTF pre opTS. I had come across with these situation all my life. I had chatted to many guys on the internet, both in Australia and overseas. I would say 90% of them wouldnt mind that I was born a man, but they wouldnt like it if I told them who I was down the track. If about trust, they wouldnt trust you after all.

HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY ! I wouldnt mind if my bf told me that he was born a woman, as long as that he is masculine enough for me.

Answer 4

I can tell you what my sort of ex-wife did... when I first told her, she was convinced I was going to kill myself so she was really walking on eggshells for a few days. For a few weeks, she thought that maybe I could go to therapy and get it treated and somehow not be trans, although I explained it doesn't work like that and I was already in therapy at that point anyway. Once she realized that I WAS trans and that it wasn't "fixable" she decided she wanted a divorce as that she didn't want to get caught up in the expense of me transitioning. Now, we talk maybe once a week, but it's extremely awkward. She claims she still wants to be friends, but she has to get used to the idea of me transistioning.

Answer 5

Transsexual are people and I would give them a hug and a cup of coffee.

Answer 6

It depends. If they told at the beginning of a relationship I would decide if I could still have a relationship with them or not. If it was later Id probably dump them for not being honest.

Answer 7

LOL! Im in this situation myself, except im the one who is ts. I am absolutely terrified of telling him, cos i know its going to crash and burn and explode! We have had a couple of dates and he rings me like everyday, we really get on. Im pre-op too, which makes things worse, but im due for the op in January, so maybe he can wait 'til then???

I plan to break up with him instead of telling him, cos i am too scared of what would happen if i did. Of course, i wanted to wait a little before telling him cos i needed to get to know him first to know if things are ok, cos he's my first ever real relationship. Being 21 has its downsides. I pray for a good reaction, who wouldnt, but i always will expect the worst.

Answer 8

If you love someone it shouldnt matter. My girl is a TS, but i fell in love with her for the reason that she is a beautiful and wonderful person. Love what on the inside, if its true love the outside doesnt matter. I dont concider myself gay, I just love her to peices.

Answer 9

Pre-op or post-op? If my girlfriend was a MtF post-op, I'd be ok with it. The parts are all in order. I'd just have preferred that she told me beforehand. If my girlfriend was a FtM pre-op... no. I'm a lesbian for a reason.

Answer 10

I hope that I would react gracefully- maybe apologize for not making him or her comfortable enough to tell me sooner. Then I'd probably ask for his or her real life story- so I'd have a better idea of what he or she has had to go through.

To any transfolk answering this question: how would you hope your lover would react?

Answer 11

I am dreaming of a lady boy with big boobs
I will be happy
