Why are so many STR8 men attracted to preop TS??

[steviex00]

A lot of shit talked in this thread - I don't mean to be rude, but there isn't one definitive answer to the question asked by the OP.
For myself, I've always put my love of tgirls down to watching porn and inevitably seeing hung hard cocks performing. Then, discovering tgirls with their own hung cocks, my curiosity as to how they would feel and presto, I now love tgirls!
Also, if it is less about the cock and more about the feminine woman, how come so many sites and threads on this board are dedicated to big cocks?
Don't kid yourselves guys - it's the cocks we all love, big, hard, throbbing cocks. I'm not scared to admit it but like a previous poster said, I find the thought of sex with men repulsive. But a shemale? Well that's different....

There's actually a comprehensive study on this (and a Google Talk - just like a TED talk). The answer is that straight men are the only ones attracted to Transgendered women and T-porn. Gay men are not interested in the least (they are interested in men). Bi-men don't really care either. The thought is that men are able to see a woman with a penis and that throws some straight men's minds into hyper-drive.

Dude, I was just wondering. The idea that one's sexuality can radically evolve as an adult is a unique concept.

I don't like to go through life oblivious to things happening around me and inside my head and NOT ask why.

Ignorance is not bliss.

Other than general sexual attraction to women, the particulars of what each of us finds sexually appealing has some psychological origin in our formative years, according to developmental theory.

I don't have a hangup with being attracted to TS women, but I am curious how a run of the mill straight guy wakes up one day and finds the combo of a woman with a penis irresistible.

Exactly, it isn't about am I gay or any of that bs...the question regarding how this all evolves later in life is very interesting to me.

When I was 10 or 11 years old I used to draw pictures of naked women with big curvy hips, really large boobs and big dicks. This is more than 30 years ago way before the internet and way before I ever saw a skin mag. It turns out that two other men in my immediate family, one from another generation, have a similar interest in Tgirls. '
I've always loved genetic women and I've never had any interest in masculine men. As I get older, I'm finding it more difficult to maintain interest in a genetic female for more than a few weeks. If I had a genetic wife that was a 10 out of 10 I'd still find a way to spend time with a Tgirl as long as she was reasonable attractive. However, once a beautiful girl has SRS her power/allure is substantially diminished in my mind. I don't have to see, feel it or taste it but knowing it's there make a very big difference for me.
One of the previous posters was right about men, in general, being stimulated visually. I've become so accustomed to the exagerated femininity and sexuality of Tgirls that the only other women that really catch my eye are strippers. Most other women seem boring by comparison. The hair, the nails, the make up, high heels and revealing clothes light up most men's minds and flip our switches. Sometimes I feel like a striped bass. I see a bright and shiny lure that doesn't look quite like the other smelts but I like the way it's moving and sparkles and it sticks out from the other smelts. So, my prey drive kicks in and I'm on that lure and gobbling it up as fast as I can.

Wow, drawing pics like that at 10 or 11, that has to be something unique.

My early exposures led to absolutely no sexual attraction as I thought it was strictly a gay thing with men dressing up, as opposed to actual transsexuals...Lou Reed's very gay-sounding singing on Walk On The Wide Side (shaved her legs and then he was a she) reinforced that notion for me...then The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but he was so obviously a man in drag and that did nothing for me...occasionally perusing the escort listings in the old Village Voice and looking at the trans ads, but the pics were so small...the 80's and 90's renting x-rated videos but the places I rented from had nothing trans although I looked at some pics online and didn't like them.

Then I stumbled on to pics and vids of Barbie Woods around 2004-5 and all of a sudden I was hooked...specifically the video she did wearing boots and you could see how hard her cock was as she was getting fucked, that got to me immediately and I knew I wanted to do what that guy was doing...from there I was finding myself more and more drawn to TS porn, but still it took me another 5-6 years before I actually took the plunge.

So now I'm wondering what would have happened if I had seen that when I was in my 20's...but my thinking is that with the quality that's available now, if a young guy sees pics of a trans girl that's his type (latin, blonde, etc.) I can't see him not getting into it although he probably would keep it dl.

Meantime I have a theory that most people disagree with, which is that all sexually active straight men are attracted to transsexuals once they are exposed to them, although the "participation" (for lack of a better term) will vary from keeping it a deep dark secret to extreme activity within the scene.

But if you have a sexually active straight man who looks at porn in general, with enough time and privacy, and he is exposed to today's transsexual porn, he will be aroused and will be able to masturbate to orgasm, no doubt in my mind.

+1. I don't have anything to back this up either, but whenever I hear or read a guy say that a tgirl is (sexually) attractive, which is at its most basic level what a guy means when he says a woman is 'pretty', in ideal, i.e., totally discreet and unknown to anyone else, circumstances that guy would fuck that TS or engage in some sexual activity.

I definitely believe a man's first reaction to a TS woman is at worst confusion, not repulsion.

The overall quality and beauty of many TS today really makes the idea of opening one's self up to the idea they're attracted to TS women a much shorter bridge to cross.

As a kid I was very sexually intrigued by John Waters' Divine.


Voluptuous, huge boobs, campy, funny, even her sexy, husky voice made her an early crush.

Until I found out Divine was a dragqueen, didn't have boobs and was actually a gay man.

LOL. I was searching for more images from the John Waters' flick Pink Flamingos,( I haven't seen it in over 20 years!) and came across a gif. that shocked me, below.



There was a pretty, preop TS in Pink Flamingos some perv tries to flash until she pulls up her dress and returns the favor.

I totally do not remember that scene. At all.

Did I block it out?? Maybe that's where it all started.

Thought I'd share my experience:

I started watching Gay and TS porn nearly ten years ago. When I started doing it, I wondered what was up with me, and went into a sort of self-analysis to find out what I was really into.

I paid more attention to the people around me, men and female, to find out which ones I was naturally attracted to. Turns out I was always attracted to girls, and I really don't like men. I find them repulsive and I find the idea of touching a man disgusting. So I guess, if I was to label myself, I'd be what they call "bi-curious".

So what about transgenders, then? I never met one, so I don't know how I would feel in presence of one. Would I be attracted to her like I am to a girl, or, regardless of how feminine and attractive she looked, would I feel those XY chromosomes and be repulsed by her?

I don't know the answer to this question yet. I live in the countryside and I find it hard to take the plunge, not knowing if I'll have the best time of my life or if I'll just end up wasting my time and money.

Reading topics like this one and reading other people's thoughts and experiences helps, because I can see some people in a situation similar to mine: guys attracted to T-girls but not men... so maybe that's not so unusual...

nysprod: I agree with you. I believe most men would enjoy TS porn if exposed to it, especially with some girls who are absolutely stunning. Not all of them will admit it, though
