is it okay to have a genital preference?
DISCLAIMER: i definitely don't, but i'm asking so i don't accidentally insult someone.
so, there's been a LOT of talk about "super straight," or whatever the fuck that shit is... basically it's a sexuality for only dating cis people? and my question is, is it transphobic to have a genital preference?
i think we should leave this for the trans community to decide, but here's what i think:

I can't speak for trans people but I can give my honest opinion.
I don't think having a genital preference makes you transphobic since most people do have a preference. The problem is when you discriminated based on that. If you make a trans person feel like they aren't "real" men or woman bc of their genitals then you are being transphobic. reply
i am nonbinary not trans so i cant speak too much over trans people but not really... a lot of trans people also understand that you may not be attracted to their genitals and thats okay but the problem only comes in when u think that bcs someone doesnt have bottom surgery they arent a woman/man , u dont have to have bottom surgery to be trans! a l...... 1 reply
personally i think it's fine to have a genital preference because you're not hurting anyone and you can't just change that out of nowhere but i don't think it's okay to not date someone specifically because they're trans. like it's fine to be like "i don't wanna date you because you have *insert genital here*" but not like "i don't wanna date you b...... 1 reply
