is it okay to have a genital preference?

i think we should leave this for the trans community to decide, but here's what i think: i sort of understand genital preferences to an extent, but if it's to the point where you aren't accepting, for example, a woman with a penis as a "real woman," that's when you know you're being transphobic....   1 reply

i dont think genital preference is transphobic since transpeople also have genital preferences themselves, but if someone shames a person for not having the genital they prefer, thats just being an asshole   1 reply

personally i think it's fine to have a genital preference because you're not hurting anyone and you can't just change that out of nowhere but i don't think it's okay to not date someone specifically because they're trans. like it's fine to be like "i don't wanna date you because you have *insert genital here*" but not like "i don't wanna date you b......   1 reply
