is flirting with a shemale same as flirting with a girl??

[Bionca]

You flirt with a Trans* woman, the same as you flirt with any other person. You make eye contact, try to strike up a conversation, feel like a fool for a few minutes, and hope for the best.

One thing I will caution you about is feeling embarrassed or guilty. We see that all the time and it gets pretty old pretty quick. Make sure that you are OK with yourself before you try to meet someone face-to-face.

Don't build us up to be some sort of mysterious exotic treat. We are above all else people and above that individuals. We each have specific likes and dislikes so there is no real "how to.." with Trans* as there is with cis* men or women.

You want to know how to flirt with a transsexual woman?

You just flirt exactly how you would normally.

That's the point I've always been trying to make...feebly... you are above all, and above all YOURSELF!

It's so poetic in it's simplicity yet so elusive in practice. Like Morrisey said "it's hard to stand tall when your small", being self concience is my problem. But getting to know someone first lets me get into a comfort zone and open up more ( no pun intended )

As someone is is painfully shy in person, I totally understand. Being oblivious to other's flirtations doesn't actually help either *shrug*

Hi Bionca, you a smiths fan too? I find it hard to pick up when someone flirts w/ me. I think it's because of low self esteem. I do great w/ friends but meeting new people ... I just clam up or start rambling. But posting here seems to help. I don't really have anyone to talk to about my love for trans women And being surrounded by redneck bigots does nothing to put me at ease. Sorry to rant talk to you later Ms. Bionca

Are you the son and the heir of a shyness that is criminally vulgar?

There are clubs if you'd like to go ... you could meet somebody who really loves you. But if you go will you stand on your own, and leave on your own, and go home and cry and want to die?

That's how a night on the town usually pans out for me! It's as if you know me...

Bionca: your advice is some of the best, most helpful, most well thought out - most intelligent I have read. And I imagine that applies to far more topics than just this forum.

So it fascinates me that you consider yourself "painfully shy in person"... but then I've said the same about myself in the past, so, I can kind of see where you are coming from.

Anyway, I just felt like saying something encouraging, because you are truly inspirational. Which country do you live in? I imagine you'd be a fascinating person to have coffee with!
