Most Cis (âNormalâ) People Wonât Date Trans People.
âVirtually all heterosexuals excluded trans folks from their dating pool: only 1.8% of straight women and 3.3% of straight men chose a trans person of either binary gender. But most non-heterosexuals werenât down for dating a trans person either, with only 11.5% of gay men and 29% of lesbians being trans-inclusive in their dating preferences. Bisexual/queer/nonbinary participants (these were all combined into one group) were most open to having a trans partner, but even among them, almost half (48%) did not select either âtrans manâ or âtrans woman.â Of the seven participants who themselves identified as transgender or nonbinary, 89% were willing to date another trans person.â
I canât believe people donât want to date the obviously mentally ill.
