Ask Matt: Finding Out a Trans Person's Sexual Orientation

A reader writes: "What is the proper way to find out if a trans person is interested in dating men or women? I feel awkward asking point-blank and do not want to offend."
Honestly, finding out a trans person's sexual orientation is the same process of discovery that it is with a non-trans person.

Of all the questions about my transsexuality I get this one the most. I don't mind answering it point blank.

Yep, just ask. If you are interested in them that is, otherwise mind your own business!
