Does that mean you'd date any guy who didn't call you a shemale? How many guys do you date in a year? Face it, girl, we're all alone.

Nope, I wouldn't date a guy just because he didn't use "shemale". Using the word, though, is a really good filter. using it in a non-porn setting or in a personal add is one sure way to get me to skip over. I have limited time and I don't see those dudes as a good return on investment. Like if they haven't thought enough to figure out that trans women largely don't like that word, then there are valid questions about how serious they actually are.

please note it is just a general question/poll , you have to remember for some it is just sexual fantasy , and if that is the case i dont think it harms to have an image/idea/fantasy in your mind as to what you want to refer your fantasy as , but as i said i do understand if you are choosing to live your life as a woman i do understand you may prefer certain terms above others

simple for me i find the term shemale suits my fantasy , it is possible different countries have different views , i am in australia and tend to think of a tranny in a simular way i think of drag queen , i just feel the term shemale is more feminine , so in my neck of the woods i am saying the term to me means more female than the term tranny or say drag queen , as i said we all have a right to an opinion so there is no real correct or incorrect , just a personal preference ....... pagging masaya ka ( philippine for being happy you)

I prefer T-Lady or T-Ladies, for me I think it sounds respectful and not degrading.
