Men who are attracted to transgendered women- Straight, bi, gay?

That proves you are a newbie. Try doing some research into terminology and what is acceptable before quoting the words in posts.

I'm a newby, is it offensive?
I use both shemales and trannies with the same meaning

There's no single correct answer to that question. Tranny is more of a porn term which many find offensive. Shemale, some don't like the term, some don't mind.

Generally best not to use tranny, particularly if you meet one...

Shemale is a straight porn word and if you call a TS one IRL you're going to be put on her shit list.
Tranny is somewhat more acceptable on message boards but iRL it's still kind of a slur.

Like calling someone you don't know a bitch/hoe, in which case it's not a term of endearment.

IF you meet or encounter a TS, you either refer to them by their chosen NAME, or she, or transgendered.

If she hints she doesn't have an issue being called something else, you follow her cues.

The problem is not that the threads keep sprouting up but that they get bumped when they've gone dormant for months. No blame for someone who sees it on the first page and adds something to it but who are these cretins who keep finding them in the archives and think they have something new to say on the subject.

So, straight...and not straight. I'm so glad you cleared that up for us...

To my mind,shemale and-for that matter -trap(a transsexual trying to "trap" or fool a guy) are more offensive terms.

For me, tranny is just a slangy version of transgendered. But unlike "n*gger" in relation to "negro",I never thought it was ever a term of outright abuse.

Certain "transactivists" have campaigned against the word in recent years . I'm not sure why. Maybe the word tranny is a bit too much of a "street" term and they want a more respectable term, for members of the community. Maybe,the use of the word tranny reveals that the speaker casually lumps together part-timers, such as crossdressers or transvestites ,with fulltime transsexuals. This is something transactivists,who consider themselves medically diagnosed "genuine transseuxals", might not like.

From my experience bottom guys who prefer TS women over GGs, typically will bottom for other dudes too.

I find it hard to believe any guy who likes it up the ass will restrict himself only to TS women to satisfy that sexual urge.

As for whether such a man is gay, straight or bi, who knows??
Most straight folk believe any time there's two dicks in the same bed having sex, it's automatically gay.
However there are a ton of masculine, straight identified guys who love trannies and GGs that no one would ever call gay unless they knew about their sex and personal life.

I've been into TS chicks for a while now, and been called all three.
Yet I consider myself "straight" because I still dig GGs too.

Doesn't really matter, does it??
Most hetero dudes will think you're a fag anyway for fucking with transwomen.lol
