    Exactly this. Everyone has their own preferences and judging a person as a good/bad fit solely based on their gender identity and not any sort of subjective compatibility is fundamentally transphobic. It’s assessing that trans people are objectively undesirable. Pretty messed up.

        First: don’t be a loser. Refer to trans women as women. Or are you a captive to your barbaric past?

        Second: you’re allowed to have a preference, but projecting your preference onto the world is transphobic. Making a joke that implies all trans people are undesirable to everyone is transphobic and self-centered.

        You can be a better person than this. Give it a try. Otherwise you’ll be left behind as a relic of a less civilized time

        Which is why you state your preference for genitalia in a partner. It’s okay if you don’t want to date a trans individual, but don’t go acting like your preference is the only valid choice.
