Now that you put it that way it sounds even worse, lol, thanks. NOPE and NOPE.

Lol. Some of my trans friend are like “I guess I’ll go for bi girls....” and I just quietly sit there until I can’t handle it anymore like “so, the thing about the bi women I know, in particular...well...they are pretty standard in liking the people they date to be okay with the parts they were born with and being able to comfortably name them and stuff.....I think it’s part of being bi, to come to accept being into women and men as they are and that it’s fine....because they have to accept themselves when everyone else is monosexual. I dunno...”

Most trans guys I know have better luck with straight women, which seems weird I guess

LOL, thank you for helping us out. It is not easy to explain to a naive, childlike adult that they failed to do enough market research before offering up non-standard wares for sale to people who generally are looking for the standard stuff. None of us is going to have success if we wander into the wrong market with what we have to sell or go to the wrong store looking for what we'd like to buy. As every LGB person on this planet well knows. Our annoying kid brother over here (the new, loud, non-dysphoric / incel / narcissist / AGP variety, that is), on the other hand, still thinks he's the best thing evar and everyone had better go along with that or there will be trouble. Ya got two hands, kiddo—use 'em like the rest of us have to sometimes. Sheesh.

As for the trans men, considering how many straight women wish their gay male friends (typically more emotionally available, better at grooming, etc.—at least that's the case when I hear these comments made) were available to date, this kinda makes sense. It is probably a nice change of pace for them to have someone around they can avoid thinking of as a woman, who also understands a lot more about being a woman than any man ever will.
