I would honestly say no. It's a sexual choice. The truth is she was a male biologically, and it's quite alright, and not discriminatory to refuse to date a certain sex when you take transgenderism out of the equation.

No it is not. A transwoman is a male person. If a guy is straight, he is perfectly within his rights to say no to dating a male person. As are lesbians. And ditto straight women dating transmen or gay men and transmen.
Its actually fairly rapey to say that anyone should shag anyone else or be called a bigot. Coercion is not good.

It’s a bit of a grey area most people don’t really get bc they’ve never really encountered trans people but I don’t think it’s as black as white as ‘well u don’t shame gay people for their preferences’ ect Last edited by Osjama; 12-01-2018 at 07:34 PM. |

Saying it is discriminatory to not date a trans person, is basically saying sexuality is a choice that you should 'get over' if its going to upset someone else. Which is clearly ridiculous.
I may get a little too worked up in this thread due to knowing loads of lesbians who have already been called transphobic/bigots over this issue, and one who was seriously assaulted due to refusing a penis that she did not know was there until she was alone with the person

No. Refusing to date someone isn't 'prejudicial treatment'.
I'd imagine that people who are discriminatory or transphobic would say they wouldn't date a transperson because of their prejudice, but the actual refusal of going on the date isn't an act of discrimination in itself. And there are so many reasons why someone might not want to that have nothing to do with prejudice, and honestly, even if prejudice is involved, when it comes to dating and sex I think people should be entitled to that. It's always good to question yourself and your motives and how you view and treat people, but the path of making people feel like they should have to have sex with someone when they don't want to is a worrying and dangerous one (and let's be realistic this is mainly about sex).

Thats not the point though.. the article is discussing whether its transphobic to instantly rule out tens or hundreds of thousands of people because of their trans-status. Nobody is saying that not shagging India is transphobic (i think).

And I do feel there’s a bit of underline transphobia like think abt the reason why u don’t want to date this person is bc she’s trans. Maybe saying their scared of them isn’t the right way to go about it so maybe phobia doesn’t apply Idk Last edited by Osjama; 12-01-2018 at 07:41 PM. |

Is it discriminatory to be gay? Thats ruling out a bunch of people for the same reason. As is being straight.

However, all transphobic people will refuse because they are transphobic and that's all there is to their logic... and I think thats where India's mind instantly jumped to...

Yes, that is the topic we're discussing. Nobody is discussing people being made to shag people to avoid being called a bigot.

So do you think it is discriminatory to not want to date someone because of their sex? (Taking trans out of the equation, this is essentially the question here...) I don't. And of course its about shagging people And its already happening, people being called bigots for not sleeping with someone who is the opposite of the sex they are attracted to...
