    People are attracted romantically to aspects of peoples personality like gender and/or physical appearance(initially) not dick or vagina.

    Also I think this song about social norms is very good for you:

    Didn't you just say that romantic relationships don't exist?

    And furthermore, you are insinuating that your preferences are somehow superior to others. Superficiality isn't inherently wrong. Some people care more about looks than personality.

    You also make the unstated claim that personality is somehow separate from gender and sex. For someone to want to get a sex change, they have to have a particularly powerful drive to distance themselves from the sexuality you thought they possessed. It will undoubtedly impact their personality and the way people see them, and there's nothing wrong with that.

    No one has to like what anyone else likes, and gender politics are inherently stupid. Don't expect tolerance or acceptance of your lifestyle just because it's deviant.
    Not gonna happen.

    Huh?

    I am insisting that not dating a girl because in her pants, she has a dick is wrong, or not dating her because she originally had a dick is wrong. Now if she perse, looks odd to you, then thats fine not to date her.

    Gender isnt, sex is for the most part. Sex change's are desired mostly by gender dysmorpha, a result of the gender binary.

    No they don't, and gender politics are important, there's very few laws of nature that govern humans.

    I misread your post on the other page apparently, because the syntax was set up in a way that made it much more likely that you affirmed the negative. My bad.
    Not a girl.
    On what grounds? You are insinuating that your sexual preferences are superior to the alternatives, and not only that, but you're calling people immoral for being put-off by sexual deviancy.
    So superficiality is a "legitimate" preference. In that case, you've contradicted yourself.
    This sentence makes me want to vomit.
    Then why are you arguing about this?
    Sure they are. You go get 'em tiger.
    What? Where's this coming from?

    People have this tendency to ignore me :( Anyways...

    Yes, one does not date into Mordor a girl just because she "is pretty" (although there is people how does it and it's fine by me), but eventually you two will have sex, and if you are straight and from one day to another she comes and tells you "hey hun, I want to be a man", things are not going to work very well.

    I don't know why, but my English is getting crappier every day.

    Fucking hell people, having a dick is not being a man. Gender is seperate from sex.

    Not for people who don't care about the worthless identity politics of gender.

    Well, I would not be able to have a relationship with a girl who has a dick.

    Why? Aside from the sex if she acts like a women and dresses in womenly clothing, why are you romantically put off?

    As long as she/he has a penis, she/he will be a man for me. I could pursue a friendship, but not a relationship.

    You don't need to get up in his face about it, seems like he is being perfectly reasonable to me.

    Gender is a identity produced by society.

    Maybe, but you're not going to force people to reject it.

    And why do sexual organs determine a gender identity?

    Can you understand how obnoxious and petty you are being? Perhaps you could convey your point in a better way.

    I don't know, I don't have that much psychological and sociological knowledge. But, being vulgar, I don't like dicks.

    Then don't fuck her, but that doesn't effect romance.

    I'm gonna walk away from this sense I'm getting personally offended.
