BTW, there's no such thing as a "transgender" person. They are just people who have undergone voluntary genital mutilation, and picked up a drug habit (hormones).

Amazing all of the hate in this thread, but I would expect nothing less Moderator cut: -. They don't think anybody who isn't white, straight, cis, and Christian should even be allowed to exist let alone have equal rights and be treated with respect. Absolutely amazing how far backwards we've gone in this country since January 20, 1957 err... 2017.

Nobody is asking straight cis people to date trans people. Everyone has their own sexual preferences. Trans people are only asking for equal rights and respect.

I take it a Cis is a normal straight person with morals, ethics and integrity.
GENDER DYSPHORIA, is a mental illness. Where a biologically born gender, feels they should be the opposite gender, instead of just going about life more feminine, or masculine

That is a false narrative. The truth is, the vast, vast majority of the American people do not care one way or another if someone is transgender, gay, black/white purple or anything in between.
Not so.

In reality, many people have quite a few negative latent feelings about the LGBT community in general and particulary about transgenders. Transgenders experience much more discrimination than gays in general.

I'm a gay man and I am very much not attracted to transgender people. Some might find that statement hateful, but I do not really care, that is how I feel and that will not change. That doesn't mean I would treat a transgender person badly, attack them or make fun of them, but I am not interested in them.

We can see in the insinuation in this study what liberals really believe - that any preference at all is discrimination and their ultimate goal is government use of force to promote 'equality' to overcome that so called discrimination.
Are you foaming at the mouth already?

Nowhere does the article even mention Liberals or a agenda but you brought it up.

A Cis is a definition and has nothing to do with morals, ethics and integrity Moderator cut: -

I don't hate transgender people. They can live however they want, so long as they aren't hurting anybody and aren't expecting me to pick up the tab for their lifestyle.

Your second statement is a flat out lie. You can Google for yourself and find plenty of articles and Youtube videos calling straight men who won't date a transgender homophobic.

I agree with this. One of the reasons some are so angry and spiteful is because of a backlash against gay marriage and transgender visibility. Being gay or trans in 2018 is easier than it used to be but it's still a struggle, especially in the more conservative parts of the US.

I'm sure it exists. I've seen videos like that. I've also seen videos that condemn people who won't date interracial or won't date an overweight person. The fact is people have their sexual preferences which sometimes can get quite specific and there is nothing wrong with that.

and there are any number of things we have laughed at from that segment in the past to our own detriment.
