Just curious: Are straight men getting pressured to date trans women too? How is that playing out?

Honestly, as a heterosexual male, the problem imo, are these men who have issues with their sexualities & lying about being heterosexual. These men are attracted & have a fetish for men who "appear" as women, but lie to themselves that they're "straight".

As far as transwomen pressuring heterosexual males into dating or being intimate with them, imo, no. You have some who try to shame men, but men tend to laugh at them, or just ignore them. It's nowhere near as bad as transwomen bullying lesbians at this point.

I've long hoped that straight men might someday save us all. Straight men are the other demographic who is exclusively into females, but are vastly more numerous than lesbians, and thus harder to steamroll.

Don't count on anyone to save you. If they join in, good. If not, there still must be a way to get the word out. FtMs are pressuring gay men, MtFs are pressuring lesbians. People think bisexuals should just accept everything because they think bi = doesn't get to have a personal choice. It's ugly out there, but we can't wait for a group of people to step in that aren't really affected much.
