Interesting discussion on whether a transgender person should reveal it to their partnersA natal woman who can’t bear children is never required to disclose that information, so there’s no reason why trans people should have to do it. You’re allowed to have sex and keep stuff like that to yourself. It isn’t an STD.

You can have that attitude all you want but I live in reality and in my reality the penalty for not disclosing what sex you are prior to physical intimacy is far greater than an internet boycott or even a stern yelling. I am pretty sure that the men I know would seek incredible retribution if they were lied to in such a way. Being a Trans is already I assume a very difficult, taxing, and maybe dangerous lifestyle so adding lying into that mix would spell doomsday.

It’s 100% the exact same thing. You aren’t entitled to your sex partner’s medical chart because you’re afraid they might be secretly transgender. If thats a problem with you, you probably don’t need to be having sex with people. “I think that the lady I’m fricking might have had a penis once, and I need the government to step in and solve this for me.” Just listen to how crazy some of you sound.

It’s not a medical chart, this is something very real and relevant and would be deceptive if someone were a woman who used to be a man but didn’t tell their partner. Is it the governments place? I’d argue no, the less government intrusion the better. Morally though it absolutely should be disclosed prior to sex. That could infringe upon heir religious beliefs, ethics, who knows what.

What if somebody sold a dish as kosher but snuck pork in there and served it to a Jew? Morally I’m sure you’d say that is wrong. What’s different in this case?

My daughter's best friend is trans. His name is Ryan but his real name is Emily. I hate it. It's weird when he is over. I don't understand it and I disagree with it but he is treated respectfully in my house. We call him by the Male name he has chosen and we don't question his lifestyle. He is only fifteen years old. His mother ridicules him and does not support him at all so he spends his weekends with us. Life is so much easier for non trans people. I pity most trans folks. Hell of a life.

It’s difficult, yes. But please don’t pity me or us. I’m doing just fine, I’m happy and healthy, and I’m incredibly lucky to have the support of my family, friends and loved ones.

They should reveal it mid blow job.

This shouldn't even be up for discussion. If you had a sex change and you start talking to someone and it might be something that could get serious, it should be shared. If it was up to me, I would make them get some type of tattoo or some sort of visual so people will know.

That way, there is no confusion. Why even subject yourself to that? You don't want to get in a relationship and when everything is going well you tell them and that is something they want no part of.

This is way worse. Lying about food ingredients can kill people. Your girlfriend lying about how many penes she used to have poses no such threat.

You think Jews don't eat pork because of allergies? You're a fricking moron.

So could lying about how many penises you've had stuffed in you

This is false and absurd.

There are people who are born with both.

A lot to discuss.

Nah, what you said is factually wrong. You've been corrected.
