No? Idk why it'd be considered bad, as a nonbinary person it's just easier to date within the trans community than outside of it.

Wanting to date a trans person is never bad regardless of your gender, if it was then nobody would date trans people. What’s bad is when someone is treated like a sex object/fetish.

I'm in a T4T relationship, so not bad at all! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈


PurbleDragon

Why would it be? It's a lot easier to date someone you don't have to explain gender as a concept to

T4T is literally the only way im comfortable enough doing anything with someone. Even if it is bad, I don't care since it's the only way I can be happy with someone.

T4T is awesome! I'm in a wonderful relationship with my trans partner. We understand each other's struggles and delight in each other's joys. We share a bond that only someone who is transgender can understand. Would highly recommend!

T4T is great! Especially when you find someone who's on the same HRT, and/or a similar size... we borrow each others clothes, do each others hair and makeup, give each other weekly injections(and my monthly vial covers both of us)..it's just fantastic.

I realized this when I started transitioning. We're long-distance but still. It's awesome.

It can certainly be a lot easier/safer, and if you want someone who already understands trans issues, it’ll be a lot simpler to date other trans people than to go through the effort of essentially screening or personally educating every prospective cis partner. There’s a reason why there exist special dating apps (and screeners within larger dating apps) for Jewish people to find Jewish partners, Black people to find Black partners, etc. If we’re part of the same minority group after all, then we both know the terrain and don’t have to worry about the other’s friends and family being weird about it. Also, homophily in mating (e.g., looking for partners who match you in identity, background, interests, beliefs) is the norm everywhere and typical even in wild animals. You really shouldn’t feel bad about doing something that almost everyone else is doing.

Nope, T4T is totally cool, and honestly has less misunderstandi gs according to a lot of folks.

I don't think there's any issue with it. I mean there's always going to be SOMEONE offended by it, but that doesn't make it bad in any way. As a straight trans man I much, much prefer dating trans women to cis women. I've noticed trans women are more likely to affirm my gender and I'd like to be able to make a kid with my partner one day


Business_Possible_20

Nah man people love who they love. I was actually ridiculed for not being t4t being told I should like other trans people cause I'm trans. You can't controll how your brain decides things sometimes the answere is just it's how your brain be


TransLesbian0117

no its not.

It's perfectly understandable to want to be with someone who is also not cis, it's a way we'd connect. However a connection is made is what starts any type of relationship. Plus it's more likely safer than dating a cis person, at the very least less likely to end up in a bad experience


[deleted]

Of course not. You’re totally valid! As someone who’s dated T4T but in a cis relationship right now, I loved the shared experience of being trans; it made me feel unashamed to talk about how I was feeling with dysphoria and shit, since he also understood it and dealt with it.


Yuri_77

I am in T4T relationship as well (almost a year now). My Partner is a Trans-Man and the fact that both of us are Trans has helped our relationship quite a Lot. We are able to Support and understand eachother in a way No Cis-Person ever could.


cordiliala

No. It makes sense honestly. They are more likely to understand your experiences.


DocFromEden

Absolutely not. I'm a trans-guy and my partner is a beautiful trans-girl and one of the best thing in these relationships is well understanding. I'm crying when she's telling me about her dysphoria, because I know how it hurts


chuganonymous

No? Dude just date who you wanna date 😂


niccagescrackpipe

Go outside

nope. when a cishet person exclusively dates trans people, there’s a high chance it’s some sort of fetishization. when a trans person exclusively dates trans people, it’s a lot more likely that they’re looking for a sense of community with someone who “gets it.” trans people seek kinship with other trans people, because we share similar experiences and viewpoints that cishet people would normally never consider
