Honestly while I don’t think you’re transphobic, I can see how this comment can be seen as transphobic because it implies you know that the guy is trans and the only thing that hasn’t broken you up is that he hasn’t medically transitioned. It’s a bit of a transmedicalist hypothetical and can be seen as somewhat transphobic. I usually just say I’m attracted to women and leave it at that.

What the hell is the context for this, though? Why do they feel the need to proclaim that they would date pre-transition transmen?
Hello, I’m the one in the image
Someone asked me whether I would date trans men.
Hope that clears things up!
I still have trouble imagining how that would come up.
Try not to strain that imagination of yours too hard when you could just read the context yourself if you’re so perplexed about it.
It’s likely you would have to leave your home and socialise with people for this to happen.

The thread in question was asking about the specifics of what straight guys are attracted to.
Okay my b I guess just bad looking out of context thing
And per usual, there are people who claim issues of attraction and consent are transphobic

Screenshots without the context are the worst
