Does Anybody in your family

[ejc8707]

know that you love shemales nobody in my family knows im scared what they might think

[jaycanuck]

Yes. They're fine with it.

[jaycanuck]

im into girls, whats between their legs doesnt matter to me, more concerned with their personality, all my family needs to know is I'm happy with life

Also similar thought to that. If I brought a t-girl home to meet mom, I wouldn't announce "hey mom, she's got a dick between her leg".

But my friends and family do know I'm interested.

[ejc8707]

well i also i just started geting into shemales it started last year when i met a shemale at the dentist we started making out right there then i gave her a foot massage sucks that we dont keep in contact no more

[macjay18]

It's not really information that I'd volunteer. Just like I wouldn't volunteer info about a GG girlfriend, like if she's got a tight puss, for example. On the other hand, it's not a secret either. I have told a couple close friends, mostly to gauge their reactions and see if they treat me any different, and they're fine with it.

Tough call as to whether you should volunteer that info ahead of time. Here's why: You might think it's a good idea to tell you family or friends - but you also have to consider your future girlfriend. If she wants to be considered a woman and not have you reveal her TS status to your family, then you have a problem..because no matter how passable she is ...your relatives (or friends) now know about your proclivity..and will therefore give all your dates that little "extra" once over and try to play "is she" or "isn't she". I don't know the right answer, but it's certainly something to think about.

My brother knows..he discovered by accident, but he's cool ..I trust him.Also a friend of mine knows.

..but if she wants my family to know..no problem.

[saifan]

Getting close. I might be spending more and more time with a special girl over the next few months. Not worried how my family will react as they have my back. Certain friends might be shocked and think less of me but oh well they probably weren't good friends to begin with.

[russtafa]

my brother knows and i discoverd he lives with a tgirl so no problem

[Bob's Tgirls]

My two brothers know and one of my sisters in law know. They're all cool with it. My parents are deceased and never knew.

Hi

Sort of a new girl here but while I was reading some messages this one caught my eye.

Do you think that it matters whether you live on the east coast, south, or west coast that people like friends and family are more cool with it or?

I found at least dating guys here in the upper midwest Chicago and the like that they are much more jumpy about what their friends might think if they knew they were into girls like me. As opposed to out west where at least to me the guys seem to care less (unless they are in the straight porn industry then they have this pissy attitude about transsexuals. At least the ones I met at AVN's when I told them I was Trans).

Just wondering whether you guys as guys into transgurls notice a difference in geographical location.

cheers
Astrid :)

[jaycanuck]

Astrid, I would introduce you to mom any day. :)

[T-girl hound]

My opinion its on a need to know basis, my fam knows because my 70 yr old aunt screamed "thats a boy" at a cookout, my ex had passed for months before this. Just be ready man it aint goin be easy, being im black in the south i got all the religion talk, but my pastor cool with it now.

What's funny about some of those "straight" porn actors is that many of them like to get tranny cock in secret. I know a few of them. Also some of the TSs have been handed phone numbers by them at AVN. They want to hook up with a tgirl for sex but not be seen with one.

[Willie Escalade]

My family doesn't know, although my sister might be a bit suspicious. I have shown them all pictures of some of my T-girl friends (one picture in particular is one of my dad's favorites); I want my family to love them for what they are in their heads, not for what's between their legs.

[astridgirl]

no less than 5 numbers from guys at Wicked and other big time straight porn producers 3 of them followed me around the expo center because they turned me away when i told them I was a transsexual where before I told them they were all interested in getting me to do work.

But yeah there is a contingent of guys that worked for the big name producers that wanted me to come to "Private Parties" at the AVN's which made me laugh.

Its like you walk away from me after you have talked to me for ten minutes about doing porn after I tell you I am trans now you want me to fuck you?

The dichotomy between the straight porn world and TG porn I guess.

Cheers

[callahac]

Yep, my wife knows and is cool with it.

[Simonross]

Yep, all of them, and also that I was in the TS porn industry.

At the end of the day, it is their problem to deal with, not yours

Exactly. It is her personal and medical history, and a guy should honor her privacy. It is not about you.

[sunairco]

Wife knows and is cool with it. I never have to hide anything. She knows that I'll look, but never order anything off the menu.

[littlenookie]

No one in my family knows, but I told a couple of my friends and they thought it was cool. :D

Absolutely. In a situation like that the decision is for the woman and the man must respect it or the relationship is in trouble before you begin. How she is perceived is something of a big deal to most transwomen, and if she wants to stealth it, you have to support her in that.

In a wider sense, however, not in respect of a particular woman, I don't think there should be an issue with letting people close to you know that you might have some, shall we say, non-mainstream attractions. If they can't deal with it, it's their problem.

Personally, I believed that I had no choice but to let some people know of my interest, including those closest to me, and they were all cool. It was a difficult decision to take but it was the right one, for me, and in any case I was in a position where I believed I had to.

Having said that I appreciate that it might make life difficult--depends on a lot of circumstances. Sometimes it may just be kinder to keep schtum.
