I also found this bazinga comment:

Just say you don’t like dick, it leaves more for the rest of us anyway.

Here’s the source: link

    Opening up my wallet and showing you a half dozen glossy 3x4 photographs of trans women that I originally found attractive but am no longer interested in. Then pulling a folded piece of graph paper out of the billfold, laying it out, and using a compass ruler to extrapolate the mix of hornyness chemicals in my blood at any given moment, in order to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that I am not interested in fucking anyone with a Y chromosome. Finally, dropping my pants and exposing my penis, in order to demonstrate physically the states of erection a description of a person will put me in based on how many traits expressed have been coded male or female.

    The “trans women can only pass with plastic surgery” brainworm is so funny because all it takes is a little googling into what estrogen does and seeing a few guys crossdress or maybe a few transition timelines to see how fragile gender perceptions are.

    That comment, imagine just saying “Yeah I’m a Blair White enjoyer”…

    This kinda reminds me of a guy in an Askreddit thread about this time twelve years ago. He was US military of course, talking about sex tourism in & around Thailand. I still vividly remember him describing a woman’s penis as a “shriveled raisin”. I must have been like… 13? at the time, I don’t think I’d heard of trans people as a real-world concept before, and I am convinced this episode did psychic damage to my young mind.

    TL;DR internet cis men should not be allowed to talk about trans people, ever volcel-judge

    Confession: I was one of those “being attracted to trans woman is gay, but there’s nothing wrong with that” people until I watched Contrapoints’ video about the topic (the one with the slur in the title). I was completely hung up on some kind of “biologically, humans are attracted to those they can procreate with” rationale that I didn’t see the extremely obvious thing that proves the opposite until this youtube radlib breadtuber pointed it out to me: Gay men aren’t attracted to trans women.

    Actual, card-carrying homosexuals don’t wanna fuck trans girls, they wanna fuck men. That was the piece I was missing that made it click for me, it was also what really cemented “trans women are women” into my brain and what that actually means. I know Contrapoints has posted a lot of cringe over the years, but she really did a lot to help me understand gender, gender identity and sexuality as concepts.

    I’m curious but not enough to watch the video: does the thumbnail guy “obviously not, they’re women you goober” or is it more like “hmmm this is all very complicated 🤡”

    i remember entering puberty and aside from all the attendant characteristics of performing proto-masculinity (“i can burp the alphabet”, “i can spit the farthest”), one form stands out in memory lately: the comradery around discussing the others we found “hot”. others in our class/school, celebrities, media characters, etc. one invariably wanted to be in agreement with the groupthink, with maybe some slight variation to side-step conflict. not that Christie Brinkley would mind that she must marry my friend so I could marry Kathy Ireland. of course some 40 year old international model would be enchanted to hold my 11 year old, b’snotted and moistened hand until i needed to open my velcro wallet and pay for the packet of grape flavored Big League Chew we would be sharing in the neon green Lambo.

    at some point in maturity, i realized the amount of people who gave a shit if i am physically attracted to any specific person or general type of person is statistically zero. it’s completely wild to me that anyone over the age of like 14 makes a big public deal and even maybe crafts their entire public persona/brand from who they are physically attracted to. it feels like it’s some calculating douchey guy catering to an audience of 10 year old boys with a garnish of insecure, immature teenagers.

    what kind of attraction? some dudes will get horny for a few ascii characters in the right order: ( Y ) or a tree branch.

    it’s such a nonsense question, bazinga guy would be on the right track if he read a book.

    These guys are the worst types of sexpats in Asia. They’re chasers who go to Asian countries specifically for the trans women living there and say the most disgusting things about them while fetishizing them.
