How do you meet a tranny?

[aasdnnn]

I'm sure this question has been posed before, but a quick search of the forums revealed nothing, so here goes...

How does one meet a transexual in day-to-day life? They make up a terribly small percentage of the population and, if you are specifically looking for one, it's unlikely you will knowingly meet one.

I've been curious about meeting and spending some time, shall we say, with a tranny for years now, and I don't know the first place to start looking. I'm not into the club scene, and I wouldn't even know what clubs to visit in Arizona that might have a higher chance of meeting nice, available transexuals for me to talk to, let alone start up something romantic.

There's always the escort route, but that gets really expensive, I would imagine.

Any advice would be helpful, I suppose. Thanks a lot!

Gay bars that have (drag) shows and pagents. Not only will the entertainers be there but they usually have friends who support them. I usually find free entertainment magazines there that advertize upcoming shows and pageants at other clubs also.

I hope that you are not one of those people that are too afraid be seen coming out of a gay bar. If so, you have to learn to live for yourself and not let someone elses ignorance stop you from the pursuit of happiness.



Here is a YouTube vid which addresses the subject of meeting trans women.

Finding and keeping a relationship with anyone is difficult. As you are
most likely aware, a good proportion of heterosexual marriages or
relationships end in divorce or breakup.

So seeking a 'happy ending' (some pun intended) of an LTR with a
transwoman, really makes the odds more dificult. Transwomen are a
relatively small subset of potential datable woman.

Factor in personality differences, age, culture, geography (your ideal
mate is in a city half way around the world), perhaps they or you are in a
relationship at that moment . Maybe you or they are caught up in your
careers or educational goals.

There are literally millions of variables that may preclude Mr. and Ms.
Right from getting together.

With all of that, it may seem as if it hopeless and doomed from the start.
But I would suggest to maintain optimism. With the advent of Internet
dating Ms. Right might be a keystoke away.

The key thing is to stay out there, be visible. Now that doesn't mean
sitting on a bar stool every night with a gin and tonic. You will lose a liver,
not gain a lover that way

Be proactive, creative, seek her out, at events, parties, book stores,
colleges, agencies involved with transrights, the Net, etc, pretty much the
same places that you would meet natal females.

And, if, and when you do encounter her, 'come' correct or you won't
be 'coming' at all. We have heard just about every lie, line of bullshit,
plea, promise, etc, imaginable.

For me personally, if a man comes at me like a gentleman, not like a
perv. If he is intelligent, funny, polite, he has a shot. He doesn't have to
be a millionaire, though I ain't feeling 'Willie The Wino, or 'Craig the
Crackhead. :P

All, he really needs to be is sincere, and speak from the heart, and who
knows, we could be sitting in rocking chairs, in the setting Sun, 50 years
from now, holding hands, still in love.

You may also want to consider dating sites, be they transrelated or
mainstream, I'm on a number of mainstream sites. Here are a
variety of sites:

TS Girlfriend's not too bad.

TG Matchmaker - booty calls

AFF - definetely booty calls

LVTG - booty call

TSMatch -they're not too bad

Mainstream sites like Match.com, True.com are always cyber pimping,
filling my email with bs. I'm on a few others that produce better results.

Good luck.

Thank you all very much for your interest!

Where ru located?

Try starting with not calling trannies, trannies... Some trannies don't like to be called tranny, unless it's by another trannie. It's kind of a respect thing.

If you preface the word trannie with a hundred dollar bill, or have bought her videos in the past, then it's OK.

PS - If you are in the Phoenix area, I think there is a club. One of the girls has a web page that lists clubs, I forgot who - maybe someone can post a link?

Also try Eros.com for girls in your area wanting to meet you!

Giggle,

Funny Jamie I was going to say the very same thing, but I'm always on the

So I gave him a pass.

Glad you caught it though.

If he's in NYC or close to it he can go to one of the parties here where TG's abound.
