(Anonymous) 2016-03-11 12:17 am (UTC)(link)So, in my opinion, genitals do not equal gender. However, genitals can be an important factor in someone's sexual desire for an individual.
I, for example, am not a big fan of penis, though I consider myself wholly bisexual and am attracted to men and women equally. However, this usually means that I find myself more attracted to men and women who don't have penises. So typically cis females, trans guys who haven't had the op, and trans women who have.
The presence of a penis does not in ANY way dictate that person's gender to me. A trans women is a women, regardless of genitals. And trans guy is a man, regardless of genitals. But just in terms of what intimate bits I want near my intimate bits, I have a preference.
I do find it kind of weird and insulting, though, that people who identify as 100% lesbian would say that their sexual attraction to 'vagina' validates them being attracted to trans men - especially trans men who look very outwardly masculine.

(Anonymous) 2016-03-11 12:32 am (UTC)(link)like you can say 'i'm basically a lesbian but there's some wiggle room here because humans and biology and gender are complicated' but if you're strident about genitals being the ONLY important criterion for lesbian attraction even if it does affect YOUR attraction is skeevy on multiple levels, pretty reductive of the other person and restrictive of acknowledging parts of yourself
