  • If you've somehow managed to fuck someone without noticing they've got a cock, you've got problems somewhere. But probrbaly not all your own - y'know, trannies are like that. Cunningly hiding their cocks until after you've had sex, and then pulling them out later to taunt you with.

    If you've had sex with somebody and then get freaked out by subsequently finding out they used to have a cock, the problems are entirely in your own head.

    Considering a prospect of a homosexual encounter when applied to yourself disgusting and terrifying is called "a heterosexual orientation". Not homophobia.

    I have a heterosexual orientation, and consider the prospect of a homosexual encounter neither disgusting nor terrifying; merely unlikely on the basis of my experiences of attraction. I would certainly consider a person who expressed disgust and terror at the prospect of a homosexual encounter to be exhibiting homophobia, and would recommend to any such person that they seek counselling for it. Unlike gender orientation, phobias respond extremely well to psychological intervention.

    The claim is that the only class of people likely to suffer actual trauma as the result of such a discovery are those who do consider the prospect of a homosexual encounter so genuinely terrifying and/or disgusting as to constitute a real, medically diagnosable phobia.

    And that claim is false. Gay people do not cause me any trauma. The thought that gay people have sex causes me no trauma or distress. Two men expressing a tasteful PDA does not cause me any trauma or distress. Gay people marrying does not cause me trauma or distress (that one actually causes a little bit of schadenfreude due to the way that hardcore Republicans react to it).

    None of those things cause me trauma or distress.

    But, I would be mildly traumatized and certainly distressed if I were deceived in to a homosexual encounter. I would never knowingly consent to having sex with a man, and I believe that is a choice that I should be allowed to make and not one that should be made for me.

    In the context of actual hape, "they liked it" is an obvious lie. You cannot change your "consent" after the fact, for receiving some new information. If it was mostly good one week ago you can't transform it into something comparable to rape because you have some new information and enjoying that breaks your taboos. Be annoyed because you were deceived is fine. Comparing it to rape means you either have no idea of how bad real violent rape, or you're overestimating how hard you would coupe with it, or :crazy:

    Who said anything about fucking? Getting them into bed, engaging in various lewd acts reserved for people compatible with your orientation and then finding out they're not quite who you took them for is still a rather terrible prospect.

    Look, if you're okay with it, that's fine. Some people are not. And it's literally resolved by a simple "by the way, I have a penis" "oh, sorry then, that's not okay/oh, that's fine" conversation. But for folks around here asking a transsexual person to expose this bit of information is somehow pure evil and they'd rather deal with the fallout.

    It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

    For most males, a prospect of being in contact with a male penis is rather disgusting. That's how we work on the sexual level, that's not any sort of prejudice or conscious hate, it's just not right, period.

    @aliceif said:

    Then again, trans women aren't men, so whatever.

    Still, their sexual characteristics (at least pre-op) are male, and that's what counts in bed for many people. Outside of bed? Fine, you're a girl, knock yourself out. But when you get a girl into bed, suddenly somewhat different traits get into play than when you're dealing with her, say, in a workplace.

    And even post-op, it's still up to the other person whether they're comfortable with it. That's it. One person asks the other whether they're comfortable with it, and the other either is or isn't. That's the whole discussion resolved with one, simple, fucking question. But no.

    Precisely my point. We don't hold fear, anxiety, anger, discomfort or aversion for gay individuals. Some of us do hold some discomfort or aversion for homosexual acts, but since we're civilized people that doesn't actually mean anything unless it concerns us and our sexual experiences directly.

    For you and your team, apparently, there's no difference between "I don't want a gay man in my bed" and "I don't want a gay man alive".
