I have found a great transgendered/crossdressing online chatroom and forum site for me to make friends with and while there I came across a topic that I couldn't believe so here it is.
Do I affect you? Does dating a transgendered individual define your sexuality? I have always been a firm believer that you are your own person. For me that even goes so far to say that if you’re a lesbian and dating me as an FTM you are still a lesbian that also goes for straight women as well. However I have been met with many people telling me this thought is impossible. Be that other people in the community, other lesbians, and even FTM/MTF’s.
I think that while yes dating an FTM/MTF puts you in a sort of unusual position it should not have any bearing on your label or identity. However you wish to title that I believe that inside decides who and what you are. I myself only ask for the respect that you see me and respect me as a man. If you enjoy the title of lesbian I will always respect that and I see no reason as to why you should have to label yourself as anything because you are dating me but many do not agree.
Am I completely wrong in this? Does dating an FTM or MTF define your sexuality? I would love to hear your views.
