Very dumb. Retarded and in no sense of way is it offensive. It's saddening really...

there are alot of genetic women that fit thoses discriptions.  Sounds like it was typed up by a male.  I  think it all depends on the  person.  Some are very fem, while others can be less.  I think imo the hards are the hardest to hide.  I have read that most MTF have more squared finger tips, while genetic female have rounded/pointed finger tips, so the grow or make their nails very curved and rounded to help cover this up.

Actually I don't. If a guy is so worried about it that he looks up sites like these then chances are I don't want to be with him in the first place.

I mean would you want to date someone constantly scrutinizing you to see if you are a guy or a girl? Or would you rather just go with the person who is more laid back? Which do you think would react better when you tell them about your past?

^It totally depends on the person.  If a girl waits too long then tells they guy she was a male, ive heard of some going off on the girl..freakin out and sometimes harming her.  You have to be very careful and that is why i think many are so worried about passing, especially if they are dating a straight male that doesnt know.

Old topic, but I actually got a laugh out of that lmao. It's just a bunch of horrid sterotyping but it's so horrid it's hilarious.

Ignorant yes.  Offensive I don't know.  The poor thing that wrote that is making a lot of assumptions & stereotyping.  There are many transsexual women that don't have masculine voices, a tall stature, prominent brow ridges, big hands, super-size feet, an Adam's apple, wide shoulders, body-builder bodies, facial hair.  In fact there are many transsexual women who could stand in front of him & he wouldn't know the damn difference because there isn't any.

I agree with Jeannette. I think it's very ignorant, maybe slightly offensive, but in my opinion I'm not really offended.

I.. Don't get it.
Honestly. If you like someone, then you like someone, right? That means to complete picture. If you turn out to like someone you did not expect to like, then that's not their thing; it's yours. And you can either lie to yourself by blaming to other person, or you can accept that you're interested in that other person, and live with it.

That's my take on it, anyway. For instance: I'm usually not attracted to men. But at some point, I met some guy I actually secretly pined for. This was before I put a name to the whole gender thing, for me, but in my.. Well; thoughts on him, I always pictured myself as female. I can't say I had any erotic fantasies, but lots of romantic ones. Anyway; at that point, I just accepted that, somehow, I could be attracted to men. And shrugged. Of course; he was already taken, and never noticed me, but I guess every girl, and guy, knows how that feels.

So if you're a Genetic Male, and find yourself sitting in a classy restaurant with a trans girl, then just ask yourself: Do I like her, yes or no? But let's be honest: You'd ask yourself that question with any girl you go on a date with, right?

This is a piece of c**p article goes to show that certain attitudes of bias toward others with different genders, transgender , transsexual etc... gets me mad we still have to endure such nonsense!

Nobody's mentioned the video version of the guide yet?

It's hilarious.

No, in fact I feel more offended by the blanket unwarranted counter attacks and generalizations made by people on this thread about it.

Websites like wiki-how are often written by hack writers being paid a pittance (I know, I've done stuff like that). It is probably being written very quickly and without much thought and doesn't deserve to be taken too much to heart.

I find it very offensive because they're being cock blockers. If it's a casual date, I don't want the girl to know my biological sex.
