RantTired of bisexuals being expected to be open to dating trans people by default because we like both biological males and females

I think choosing to trans is to choose to preemptively produce what are basically future trans-widows out of people who would otherwise be attracted to the individual. Someone who, despite their sexual orientation, cannot be attracted to the transed person due to their gender identity, behavior, or modifications due to surgery or drug use that remove primary or secondary sex characteristics and replace them with archetyped facsimiles of the real thing.

Imagine someone you like suddenly lacking many of the sex specific characteristics they have now and also large parts of their personality having disappeared overnight in favor of a character's of the opposite sex in a novel they read that they figured it would be cute/cool to imitate permanently in your presence. The severity varies, but at some point their old self(and the reason you were drawn to them in the first place) is basically dead to you and it should be okay to no longer be attracted to them. And this reasoning can be used for people who you haven't even met before they transed. The Trans-widowism effect is not just a feature of marriage.
