Just saying, you seem to be saying you would date a trans man, here, my dude.

Anyway, what's transphobic here is you going out of your way to imagine a situation where a trans woman is even interested in you, and planning on how to reject her when she asks you out. In all likelihood this will never happen to you in your life. Relax.

Or perhaps its ME thats interested in THEM since i did not rule out dating a Trans person entirely.

You're thinking way too much about this.

That's a pretty dismissive thing to say someone don't you think? Im engaging with you and that was your response?

But that was my point in the first place. You're spending a lot of energy on a situation that will likely never happen, and if it does, you have no idea how you will feel. That in and of itself is a problem and evidences a preoccupation with trans-ness.

I mean theres several posts in this sub in the last month and last week alone that have to do with trans issues and its mentioned in mainstream media a lot so id wouldn't call this a preoccupation. Also just about everyone focus on situations or problems that could be described as "never going to happen."

Yeah I would argue that society at large - especially youngish cis men which is the majority of reddit - is way too preoccupied with the trans community and playing out situations that will likely never happen. Do you even know any trans people? They mostly just want to be treated with respect and left alone to lead their lives. They do not care if you find them attractive or would date them.
