Top 10 Myths About Transgender People.

everydayfeminism.com/2012/08/myths-about-transgender-people/

You know what bugs me most? That heterosexual people identify guys who are attracted to shemales as gay. I have said this time and time again - I love cock, but I do not like it attached to a dude! So, am I gay? Am I bisexual? Probably the second, if any. I would do anything for sexual pleasure, so maybe I am pansexual? Probably. Who gives a fuck? Get in a room with people of the same understanding, lock the door and have sexual fun in all ways all of you can think of.
Specifically for shemales lovers (like me), we probably identify the penis as our own, and the body and mind as the beautiful women that they are.

As for being fucked, the anal area has the same erotic connotation like nipples, ears, cocks and pussies and you name it. So why not use it? I know loads of 'heterosexual' guys who enjoy being rimmed or fingered, or even dildoed. But when it comes to a real live pulsating cock in their arse - "oh no, disgusting, I am not gay"! Rubbish. Nothing gay about fulfilling your sexual desires.

Just thought I'd start a thread relating to this rapidly expanding niche market :-)

Wow, your clear intellect just lifted you to the top of my list of favorite'd she-males for when I get the guts to give this a try.

Never too old to learn!

@ HAVS and DAPS...agree, agree and agree :-)

The problem is - labels. We think we are ONLY the labels that we assign ourselves or, even worse (and sadly more accurate) the labels others "imprison" us with. I have always maintained: IT'S NOT THE NAME THAT YOU CALL ME, BUT THE NAME THAT I ANSWER TO THAT MATTERS.

Sexuality is not cast in stone - it is FLUID. The only constant in our Universe is change.

Craigie, you go, dude!

Hi guys, I will re-post the link in my last post when that site's forum is up again. Looks like there was a surge in traffic from RSA ;-)

Here is some more food for thought (I will copy n paste instead of posting a link, this time)

I’m gender queer and was told by a friend that the porn shop she worked in carried a wide selection of magazines and films catering to an interest in transwomen. That sort of implies it’s popular enough to support that much material on it — which is really interesting when you think of the way many straight males react to any other “male” behaving in a “female” way. I really wouldn’t be surprised to find out the guys who try to bash me are secretly turned on by my existence — although, I’d prefer they just send flowers or something. Is this becoming a more common attraction?

Seriously, FTD.com! It isn’t that hard. Sure, flowers cost more and won’t last as long as self-hatred, but that’s a good thing.

Back to your question, though: I assume you’re talking about transsexual women who haven’t fully transitioned, since that’s the most popular type of gender queer porn. For uninitiated readers, that means people born with male bodies but who identify as female and have not had full sexual reassignment surgery, although breast implants are common. In the ever tasteful and humanizing world of porn, they are referred to as “she-males,” “chicks with dicks” or “lady boys.” In similar fashion, men who are attracted to transwomen are colloquially called “tranny chasers” or “transfans” — sometimes affectionately, sometimes not. The technical, although still controversial, term for such attractions is gynandromorphophilia (the correct pronunciation of which is equivalent to stuffing your mouth with food and saying damn near anything).

With that vocabulary lesson out of the way, we can move on to just how many men have these attractions, a question easily answered: We just don’t know. What we do know is that “T-girl” porn is the fourth most popular type of adult website, according to “A Billion Wicked Thoughts,” a book I cite at least once a month. “The main audience for T-girl porn,” explain authors Sai Gaddam and Ogi Ogas, “is heterosexual men.” They speculate that the appeal of this genre comes from the “novel juxtaposition” of feminine cues, like breasts, with the penis, which “has a special power to activate the male sexual brain” – yes, even the heterosexual male brain (that helps explain all those large male members in straight porn).

Ray Blanchard, who did a series of studies on transsexualism in the ’80s, told me by email, “There are certainly no decent epidemiological data on the prevalence of this interest. There is hardly any research of any kind.” One recent exception to this rule was a paper out of Northwestern University in which researchers recruited 205 men with a sexual interest in transwomen for an online survey and found that 51 percent identified as straight, 41 percent called themselves bisexual and a piddling six men ID’d as gay. Kevin Hsu, one of the study’s researchers, says this “contrasts with one popular misconception that men who have an interest in transwomen must be gay men, or closeted gays.”

Out of their sample, 55 percent said their ideal sexual partner would be a woman and 36 percent preferred a transwoman. “The interest in transwomen appears to be a distinct sexual interest separate from heterosexual men’s attraction to women for the majority of men, but there is a substantial minority who may experience it as their sexual orientation,” Hsu says. “That is, their sexual attraction to transwomen is the central part of their sexuality and not a secondary interest.” These are the “genuine fetishists”.

Your question isn’t so much “Am I normal?” but rather “Are those guys who are attracted to me normal?” Well, they’re certainly common, judging from the wild popularity of T-girl sites, which cannot merely be explained by people’s passing curiosity. This wouldn’t be the first time that the world of online porn proved that “normal” is rarely what we think it is.

FACEBOOK now makes provision for 56 different gender descriptions...theweek.com/article/index/256474/facebook-offers-users-56-new-gender-options-heres-what-they-mean

Ancient civilizations recognised 5 (specific) genders. The male/female binary is a product of "westernisation" - social programming. MAHATMA GANDHI, when asked what he thought of "western civilization", said: "I THINK IT WOULD BE A VERY GOOD IDEA."

There are 8 countries that now (legally) recognise a third gender (Australia/Bangladesh/Germany/Nepal/New Zealand/Pakistan/Thailand/India). India is the latest country to grant this recognition to their transgendered citizens.www.youtube.com/watch

"Gender...is a grammatical term only. To talk of persons...of the masculine or feminine gender, meaning of the male or female sex, is either a jocularity (permissible or not according to context) or a blunder."
