Is it important to list that you're transgendered on dating sites?

I think it is important. This is the first line of my okcupid profile:

I'm transgender. If that hasn't stopped you in your tracks, feel free to write. No questions are off limits as long as they're respectfully asked

I almost feel like dating as a transwoman would be easier when you're older. I've found that the older the men are, the more likely they are to be okay with it honestly. The youngest that's ever been with me & not cared was... 22. He was some Russian & oh god he was sexy. In a nerdy, smart kind of way, not the typical douche kind of way. Anyways, I've had men in their late 20's talk to me too & if they're 30+ it's a 100% usual no go. Has your experience been well?

Yeah, nothing bad except a couple spammers, bride.ru links specifically. One guy hadn't read the profile, I told him he should. He came back and asked what my body configuration was. I remember his phrasing well. I told him I had male plumbing and asked if that was a deal breaker for him. He said it was, complimented my picture and wished me well finding someone.

Several women have contacted me, male plumbing was a deal breaker for them too. One transwoman is maintaining contact with me now, maybe something will come of that.

Awww good luck on your search n__n I know dating is difficult for girls like us, but it's not impossible.

I'd rather have male plumbing be a problem in my first email to someone than have male plumbing be a problem when someone finds it.
