Responding to the original question in the subject line, I can only speak for myself. My transsexual girlfriend asked me which I prefer...transsexual versus genetic women...and I told her that I view either as women. For the record, she is pre-op and plans to stay that way. If she wanted to get reassignment surgery, so be it. She's my girl, regardless of "the downstairs plumbing." I love her for the beautiful woman she is.
