I was reading through a fair number of articles today, and this one just kinda stood out. It involves a new sexuality....guys (or gals), who only want to date (hook-up would work as well) with someone of the opposite sex, and NOT trans-folks.
The scenario? Fred is 30 years old, and his friend wants to set him up with a date. Somewhere in the discussion....the problem comes up....this is a former guy who has done the full-operation and converted over to a female (well, as female as you can be). Fred thinks over this, and then says 'no'. At that moment, by the folks talking about 'super-straight'.....he's a bigot.
I sat there for a while. This is not one of those problems that you'd run into twenty years ago. You might worry about the gal being 'chunky', overly intellectual, a weird religion gal (like handling snakes or speaking in 'tongues'), having a glass-eye, having a piercing in a unmentioned body region, having a seventeen weapon collection, having a Harley, or locally known for having shot a guy for questioning her judgement.
Where this is going to lead onto? Well....these trans-gender 'gals' are going to complain at some point that as they put out opportunities to date.....the only guys they seem to be able to find....well....are gay guys who suggest they can be 'bi' but only with a trans-gender gal.
This leading to a mess? Some PhD folks will talk about the phenomenon, and write studies to explain that for each thousand trans-gender gals.....there's only 500 regular guys who are willing to date with them.
The thing here....is this really a PROBLEM? Is it something we should ponder upon or worry about? To be frank, I can think of 20-odd thousand problems I'd rate at a higher level as a society.
