I still remember the first time I dated a trans woman. She was beautiful and I didn’t know she was a transgender before she told me so. By the time she told me the fact, I was already in love. The love comes pretty fast I have to say. She told me this fact during our second date. I was so astonished. I knew the existence of transgender, but I had never seen one for real. I reconsidered our relationship for a few days and educated myself by googling. The next day I asked her out and told her that I accept her identity.
For transgender women, the thing they care the most is not how much you spent on her or how considerate you are for them, but how you treat their sexual identity and whether you respect that or not. I think I did pretty well in my first trans hookup experience, because I truly regard her as a woman. I always use the right pronouns and I treated her as a lady. However, I guess her being as a transgender did have some impact on how I see her, that is discrimination. Even though I never admitted to her, I saw less of her personality than her sexual identification after I knew that she is a transgender. The thought of discrimination thrived without me even noticing it. In my deep heart, I think I deserve better. That was how I became a jerk. Bearing such evil thought in my mind, I can hardly be respectful and lovable. Eventually, we broke up, not because of her, but because of the way I treated her. Breaking up is not something worth mentioning compared to the damage I caused. I regret that, but there is no way going back.
With regard to dating a transgender woman, the most important factors are respect and love. These two things are needed by all transgender people, also the two things they are lack of. As long as you keep respect and love in your heart, I believe you will nail every ts dating experience.
