Hi, I’ve got a date in a few days with a lovely trans woman whom I’ve not met before but chat online and talk with on the phone. I’d like to know if there are any faux paus in general that I should avoid.
I have reassured her that I unequivocally see her a woman, that I strongly support trans and LGBTQ rights.
For context I’m a bisexual cis man. She’s pre-op but looking to get hormone replacement therapy. She doesn’t seem to have dysmorphia about her nether bits, but does have dysmorphia from the negative social stigma. I didn’t press too much about it as I didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable. I also shared some personal details to put her at ease about my identity so she knows I’m not just a creep.
She very much seems into me though, and is very open to talk sexually as well which I find as a good sign as it indicates very open communication.
Thanks for any advice!


Thanks, this is great to know! This is the sort of thing that would get me into trouble if I didn’t seem to know any of the basics.
