Would you stay with your partner if they had a sex change to the gender you’re unattracted to?

there are actually two issues here: sex and gender. the answer really depends on ones sexual orientation and gender orientation. society inappropriately interchanges these two words when they actually mean two different things. gender is what is in between your ears, and sex is what is in between your legs. while many trans people go all the way and not only change gender presentation, but sex reassignment surgery, there are some transpeople who decide to change gender presentation, but not have genital surgery.

ultimately, there is no right or wrong answer to this question. it really depends on the wants and needs of the partner in question. you really need to think carefully about the person and determine what it is that attracts you to them. is it genitals? is it gender presentation? is it their morals and values? is it their hobbies and interests? will a change in gender presentation from masculine to feminine change your attraction to them? will a change in genitals influence your ability to enjoy sexual activity with them? maybe the answer is yes, maybe it is no, or maybe it is 'don't know'.

if you really care about this person, then i'd recommend approaching this with an open mind, but bew totally honest with them, so that they will be aware and understanding that the transition could potentially be a show-stopper for the relationship.

no matter what, relationship or not, try to be a supportive friend.

Look at it this way: this person was always that gender. Only the outside parts are changing, not the gender. If they fell in love with that gender in the first place, it means they like that gender so changing the sex would not be such a big deal. They're already in love with said person, so they're already attracted to said person emotionally.

Many bisexuals have a similar issue (if that's what you call it). They're attracted to one gender emotionally and one gender sexually. They end up with the gender with the emotional attraction, most times. That's more important in a relationship.

This is a very good question. I think if my partner did get a sex change and I truly loved them, then I wouldn't care. It's not what's between their legs that I like, it's their personality.

Yes because love goes beyond gender. Most of us are pansexual if we explore and dare to love more than a persons body!

I would stay with them as I generally consider myself a strait woman, but I do find myself attracted to a few women. To me sex doesn't matter so long as I love the person.

Yes, of course, I am bisexual and consider many things more important in a partner than their gender.

there was a girl i loved who decided to become a man: i still love him. love is love and unconditional.

Well, I'm pansexual. So it wouldn't phase me in the slightest.

odd as it may sound, honey.....there are people in this world who find something other than sex to be their driving force.

sex is not always the be-all, end-all in many minds.

much love and hope. pj

OH HELL NAW.
