Yes; but also whether they do or not, you still shouldn't abuse them when you find out, and unless they actively lied about it - as in specifically claimed they were not trans - they have not "deceived" you in any way just because you didn't ask.

You can choose to not continue sexual activity with them when you find out. That is fine. But you can do this without abusing them.

Agreed.

Physical assault is where the line needs to be drawn. No need for violence. Both parties should just go their separate ways if it does not work out.

I dont understand these results, there seem to be a lot more than 9 far left progressives on CE.

Is it because the poll is anonymous?

Until transphobic losers get over their massive insecurities (i.e. when the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, when the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves).

If they're pre-op then letting a potential sex partner know is probably a good idea for their own safety so they don't get assaulted or something when the other person sees genitals they weren't expecting

If they're post-op then who cares unless the person they're about to bang specifically wants a partner to procreate with and has also made that clear beforehand

This topic would be better as "Trans people, do you...?" But it sounds like some people are suggesting maybe it wasn't made with an open mind and genuine interest in the ramifications of the decision.

No, trans women are still women, I dont see why they would need to disclose the category of women they are. If the guy is attracted hes attracted, its not like knowing shes trans should somehow make a difference

if theyre attracted enough before knowing shes trans, whats the difference about not being attracted to her after knowing shes trans? Being trans isnt like a personality trait, you can become unattracted to someone after finding out theyre an asshole, but whats the reason for the unattraction finding out someone is trans?

Homophobia

Assumptions about their genitals

Pretty much anything that fits under the umbrella of invalidation and/or not considering them people

You got men that won't wipe their own ass because they think that it's gay.
The answer is that most people are stupid.

Self-affirmation of their gender and social acceptance of that fact doesnt make biological sex go away. There will always be cases where that matters and sexual intercourse is probably the most important.

A bigger question is why would transgender people want to hide it? If its because they think the person will no longer be interested, doesnt that confirm that the person is not worth their time/effort anyway?

No matter who you are, no matter what, let people know what your dealbreakers are before getting too far. If you dont wanna be with a trans person, make sure your partner knows that. If you dont want to fuck a Republican, make sure your partner knows that. Dont make shit overly complicated by coming up with rules about who should tell what in order to get yourself out of doing what you should be doing.
I'll second this

It's risky, there's a lot of people out there who would assault them for it. Like, even if you tell someone over Tinder, that person could tell the community the trans person lives in, and one person there might attack them.

It's not that simple.

I'd imagine the ratio of people being assaulted over just tinder as opposed to meeting in person then telling them is quite a bit lower. And both of which are lower than telling someone after the fact of having sex with them.

But if they advertise it right on their page the person will know before they even speak.

Also id imagine that telling them beforehand online will get you assaulted much, much less than telling them afterward in person.

Every time NeonOctopus is warned, I feel sick to my stomach.

I have a custom script running on my PC that I commissioned a computer science student back in college to write, where it constantly refreshes GameFAQs to check the status of NeonOctopus's account. If the script detects the status has changed to "Warned" or "Suspended", it will send a text alert / email (in case I don't have my phone) and I can immediately react.

This evening was an evening like any other. I was hanging out at my crib (street vernacular for "house") with some of my friends and we were watching Wednesday Night Football (we tape Monday Night Football and watch it on Wednesday) and drinking Mike's Hard Lemonade.

Let me tell you boys, we were are completely Hard (slang for drinking many Mike's Hard Lemonades) the entire time. I looked over at my buddy and I could see he had a Hard one right in the front of his pants! I thought that was funny because normally we put them on coasters on the table. I realized my own Mike's Hard was getting low and I said to my buddy "hey, can you toss me another Hard one?"

He informed me that we were all out and I'd have to get more Mike's Hards. I figured I could just have a swig of his and asked if I could put my mouth on his Hard one. He laughed, because we were both drunk and would normally never do this (because of germs; sharing a drink is disgusting), but eventually he gave in. I grabbed the smooth shaft of the bottle and just as I was about to put it in my mouth, my phone rang.

NeonOctopus was Warned.

I howled. I let out a howl so loud and piercing that it woke up my son. I normally make him go to bed on Wednesday nights at 5:30pm partially because I don't want him to see me getting Hard with other men (the kid doesn't need to be exposed to heavy drinking at his age) and also because he's an annoying little s*** and is usually asking questions about football, as if he were a nerd or something.

Tears rolled down my cheeks. I didn't know what to do. I kept refreshing the GameFAQs page, hoping that this was some kind of mistake. Maybe some moderator was intending to remove a post praising the KKK but had accidentally clicked on the innocent NeonOctopus link. Alas, this was not the case.

By this point, my friends were all visibly upset and I noticed they were trying to leave, even though we were only part of the way through the game. "No!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. I was inconsolable. I began thrashing about, throwing my collection of decorative throwing knives all over the crib (apartment). One knife struck my Native American friend, Big Bear Jim, in the neck. Blood gashed from his open wound, staining the carpet a deep red and splashing the walls. A sickly iron scent loomed in the air as Death claimed Big Bear Jim.

My son knew he needed to act quick. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small crucifix. "Dad!" He yelled. "Remember how Christ died for your sins? Well, NeonOctopus did the same thing. He will live in our hearts forever, and hopefully in 3 days he will rise again from the depths of warned and post wonderful stories about t****** on CE again."

At that moment, I knew my son was right. My rage quelled. I tossed Big Bear Jim's corpse into the dumpster and put my son into the Punishment Closet, as he had broken one of my most important rules of the house (never make eye contact with me).

Anyway, I really just miss NeonOctopus and I think the mods should reconsider his warning.

tl;dr - free @NeonOctopus

But it does, it absolutely does. Think what you want about that, but its true. Its like if you meet an insanely hot chick and then later find out shes your sister, even though she looks exactly the same your feelings IMMEDIATELY change.
