I have, in the past, maintained wonderful relationships with transgendered women, and the only thing I ever did different than in a straight relationship was the use of that darn word 'transgendered'...I wish we could get rid of it for something less "clinical".
Seriously, why should it be *any* different from *any* other relationship - treat them with love and kindness and respect, caress them, kiss them passionately, look deeply into their eyes and open your heart to them, hold their hand, compliment them, read poetry to them by firelight, kiss the nape of their neck while they are getting dressed, be quick to touch them across the dinner table and slow to release them, hold the door for them, hold their coat, hold their purse, keep any connection you can to them, grieve with them, laugh with them, share with them, love with them.
In short, woo them as one would woo anyone one adores.
