The great news is, we’ve really solved all the biggest issues facing humanity and the human condition.
We must have done, because otherwise there wouldn’t be time to ask why women don’t want to date a woman masquerading as a man.
The only difference between Lee and a man…Is that Lee has one fewer penis than a man.
It’s such a little difference (well, I’m not speaking for myself here – my nickname at the rugby club was “Tripod”, after all), but one that seems to significantly matter to single women with whom Lee would like to have romantic relationships.
Lee’s complaint seems to be that regardless of whether “he” is honest from the start of the online flirting phase or saves the big (non) reveal for later, once he’s excited the potential partner that he might be a possible mate, the reaction is universal; they decline.
Obviously (?) this confuses Lee and, presumably, the commissioning editor of Vice who published this column.
How can it be, in 2019, that women can be so prejudiced and cruel to just a regular trans man seeking romantic partners? Love is love, after all, is it not?
Bill’s Opinion
If the entire world disagrees with you, particularly in the form of revealed preferences, consider the possibility it’s your world view that’s at fault.
Given that we’ve only decided women can be men and men can be women in the last decade or so, one wonders how long we might need to wait for societal norms to overturn the millions of years of biological expediency that has resulted in our arrival at this point?
In the meantime, our golden rule when reading heartfelt articles about matters trans remains true; look at the picture first, if the person provoked an immediate reaction that they are one of the ugliest men/women you’ve seen, it’s because they aren’t.
What comes straight to my mind is a sentence my parents used to say to me on occasion. Everybody’s out of step but our Johnny.
Show us your tats.
“It is a penis, it’s just shaped liked a vagina due to an industrial accident”.
Who amongst us hasn’t heard that on a Saturday night at some point…..

Yes, and so I must reconsider my belief in small, fully funded government every morning.
Especially in Australia, especially if you make the mistake of watching QandA.
