Marriage

Cheers Jodie, that's exactly what I meant. I want children who are biologically related from me. It's absolutely nothing personal.

ila, what I was getting at was that I don't want to adopt. I wasn't disrespecting or trying to suggest that transwomen aren't women. Sorry if it came across that way.

No problem. I understand now what you are saying.

I want to get married one day.

It's a simple statement that causes so many problems , especially in the bible belt.

Move out and you will find the bountiful blessings that come in the form of trannies.

JodieTs has hit the nail on the head, at least for me. Falling in love is all about discovery and accepting the other person for what they are to a point where perhaps previous biases and prejudices become totally irrelevant. But the process is not especially about sexual discovery - it is about discovering the person. And JodierTs is right, the way to allow love to unfold in your heart is sometimes best achieved by laying aside physical urges for a while so as to get to know and appreciate the person you are with.

So my answer is ' yes ' if I fell genuinely in love. Nothing else would matter.
Nor would I debate definitions and conventions. They would not be a consideration.

Children with my own genetic make-up ? I am not able to have children, but surrogacy or adoption would be an option, if that is what my partner wanted.

Currently relationship wary, but still hoping, maybe.
