Today, I was staying over at a friend's house for the weekend while the rest of my family goes to Cuba. Her neighbor started hitting on me. As it turns out, "he" was actually born as a "she", and now I'm apparently a transphobic bitch for not being interested. Two more days to go. FML

There's nothing transphobic about not wanting to date someone. Even if you don't want to date a trans guy, that can just be a preference. We're attracted to who we're attracted to.

I was once called racist and a fat-people-hater because I stated that I mainly date white, sporty men. I mean it's not that I have an obligation to give everyone who comes along a chance. I'm not a dating charity.

Okay, while you aren't in the wrong for not being interested, it's actually very rude to use quotes whenever talking about trans people, and further more when talking about their past and present genders it is more polite to say male or female for the past and to either say transmale/female or just male or female

And another FTM here. Just because you don't want to date someone doesn't make you a bad person. You're not transphobic for not wanting to date anyone who is trans. Yes, the wording could've been different, but if you're not as educated in the whole subject as others are then it's understandable. And for all those saying that maybe she doesn't want to date someone who is transgender because she may want children one day, you all have a very strong point. As a transgender myself I cannot stress enough how important a family is to me. I want my own kids one day, and while I know they will never biologically be mine, I am willing to love any child raised by myself and my partner as if it were my own. But it takes a lot to find a person who's willing to go through all of that. None of this makes her transphobic. Or a bigot or anything of the sort. So to everyone trying to shame her into any other thinking, just stop. That makes you no better than the people that you despise.

As a fellow transguy, I can say with 100% certainty that being trans does not give you the right to be a sexist shitbag. It sounds like he's using misogyny to cover his own insecurities. I'm sorry that happened to you, OP.

It also reminded me of all those "nice guys" with their fedoras who think that women are obligated to date them. Insulting people just because they don't want to date you is not the best thing one can do.

Thats not even how you spell that insult, my god. Also, please dont use that insult in general. Not every trans person is like the one OP dealt with.

Big surprise the transgender feels " discriminated against" and "racially targeted" seems like a trend in this country.

Tell them it's nothing to do with what they are, they are just ugly inside.

No one has a "right" to your body, time, and energy, OP. You don't have to date anyone you don't want to.
