I would like to get responses from both men and genetic women on whether or not you want to marry a transwoman. I would also like to hear from the trans ladies of the site. Do you want to get married or not?


As for myself more than anything I want to marry a transwoman. I?ve known it and felt it for a long time. I?ll be happier than I ever have been in my life when I do marry a transwoman or at the very least live together with a transwoman. I prefer marriage as it affords her a lot of legal protections.

Honestly I can not understand you people ...
What does "legally"?
The law is a gateway to a field just go crazy over it ..
Heh heh heh.
If your heart leads you to someone, what is the problem?
Why so insist on a written paper?
So you need the approval of society to love and live with someone?
Strange ...

Legal marriage, in most countries, brings with it certain rights and protections and financial benefits (taxes, for example) that make life easier to handle in a world already difficult enough to navigate.

Further, while it is true that a piece of paper does not prove love between two people, the absence of that piece of paper -- or, more important, the denial of that piece of paper -- creates the opportunity for other people to discriminate.

I don't think that even my attorney could make sense of that statement...

SMC is correct. A legal marriage provides real (often financial) advantages that simply "living together" doesn't. Not legally recognizing the partnership can also lead to discrimination. Especially in some societies.

Well this might probably be possible for you.
I'm used to fight against discrimination directly ...
With my fists.

When i go for a walk with a T-girl , usually happens to me having to defend her...

Well, I guess we can't all achieve the lofty heights of a true whorelover.
