Most I've met are very chill and down to earth. I wouldn't mind dating one.

No I would not date one. They are still the gender they were born with to me. Sorry but no amount of self mutilation :COUGH: I mean surgery or make up will change that.
I don't hate them, I will be respectful to them and treat them like a human but no I will not in my heart play make believe and think they are the opposite gender

That would make it a guy. Gender is not this lose concept you can alter at will. There's masculine and feminine behaviour but if it's got/had a dick it is indeed a guy and nothing will ever change that.

When I was 15 I FELT like I was black (had a pretty hard wiggER phase ), was I black?
When I was 17 I felt like a true shaman! Was I a shaman?
When I was 18 I was told I was a felon...Was I REALLY a hardened criminal?
When I was 12 I felt like a pro basketball player....was I headed to the NBA?
When I was 4 and played Make believe I felt like I owned a eating establishment when I brought food back to the forts I made.....Did I own one?

We currently lack the ability to alter the sex of chromosomes, meaning gender is in literally every single cell of your body. You can act masculine or feminine but that's really not the same thing as altering gender.

I have to say this may have been the best post of yours that I've read.

With a 1 month register date, just you wait.....I post pure gold

I would not let them date a trans till the age of 18. After that point that is their mistake.

As a father I would be protective over my children and do not think I would be comfortable with it.

If I told someone I was a tree they would think I am crazy. But once it takes on a sexual nature allllll of a sudden I am close minded and I am the wrong one. Suicide rates are the same for pre op and post op trans. It is not the surgery they want or need it is medicine. With the suicide rates being so high i would feel they would bring my child down with them or emotionally rock them to the core

I do believe that scientifically a transgender person is their original gender but surgically created genitals.
In spirit though, people are just people and I am respectful and open minded about it and over time I think every one will learn more about this phenomenon and we will all be more open to it.
That would be terrifying to lose a perfectly working dick for them to drill a hole in you though and make a pussy. That does take a lot of courage and I commend people for taking that risk to find happiness.
I would be uncomfortable with my boy dating a transgender honestly just because of the stigma and all the unknowns about it. I wouldn't care if he is gay and likes a dick up his ass but the transgender thing is still somewhat taboo.

Why wouldn't you trust them to be strong enough to make their own decisions and stand by them?
