So, here's a sort of pseudo-philosophical question for the other non-ops:
Would you ever date a non-op transsexual? That is to say, if you were attracted to women, would you date a MtF even if they still had boy parts?
I myself am not sure, but I think I could. Any thoughts?

Probably if the person were interesting without worrying about the wrong parts.

My guiding philosophy for dating has been tied to the person, not anatomy. While the majority of my post-transition dating experiences have been with cis-women, I have dated two trans-women. They were held to the same standards of the cis-women.

I would think so, but you never really know until you're in the situation.

Sure, providing I'm attracted to them. If they identify as female, they're female, I don't mind what's down there.

It's an interesting quandry, though, isn't it? Like I said, I think I could, but I think that the open-mindedness that allows for that is bred by the fact that we are all transgender.

I would do that as long as they were a nice person. I could care less about what is in their pants.

That is exactly the response I will give.
Can't put it any better really.

I would...HOWEVER...I probably wouldn't date anyone in the "middle andro stage" of passing. I'd be too worried about myself being outed in proximity to them, and being bi I would also question what parts of them I found attractive. One thing I have noticed is that my brain works on a very binary level...so even though I am attracted to both sexes, my brain will assign a male or female tag to them. I'd feel really bad if I dated an early stage FtM and found out I was attracted to his feminine appearance.
That said, personality always dominates my choice in relationships. FtM, MtF, bio male or female, depends if I enjoy spending time with that person.

The gender identity/sex of my partner doesn't matter, I'm attracted to the person.

I'm with Z here, I date people, not members of certain groups.
