Why don't women like dating tvs

A question for the born females on fab. Why do you not like to date tvs? Is it because we are to much like you? Because of not being manly? Because we may be gay, bisexual? You are worried about sexual health issues? Just curious to know what you really think? Honesty more welcome than being politically correct. Give it to me girls

My only real experience with TV's was in the Sex Work community and I found almost all of them incredibly difficult to work with - entitled, selfish, all "me me me".

Was probably enough to put me off.

A very valid question about sexuality and attraction. Ignore any sniping comments. If people can open threads about what's for tea or how to fix my car, you have every right to ask what you want.

Women may want to meet the guy first as crossdressing isn’t the person, that’s just something we’re compelled to do.

I’ve dated loads of women, who were well aware of my crossdressing but it was after they knew me as a guy. My wife enjoyed going out and also sex whilst dressed, others enjoyed going out but no intimacy with it.

But if you’re going to display yourself as a TV / Crossdresser first, then it maybe more difficult than the opposite.

1. Don't put us all in 1 group, that is very presumptious of you.

2. Nobody has to explain why they are or are not attracted to anybody.

3. Cross dressers can vary dramatically, am I attracted to a hairy man in knickers and lippy. No.

Am I attracted to someone who puts in time and effort to look good, sometimes.

You're getting a bashing. Maybe you would have been better off asking the question without giving us multiple choice answers.

Personally, I find most tvs unattractive as they clearly look like men in women's clothes. It might be something I'd be interested in sexually but that would be as far as it went.

No, of course you don't have to explain your preferences, I am just curious for the reasons, putting politically correct stuff aside. Some interesting comments, and opinions. But surely copying is the sincerest form of flattery, and after all aren't we all mixtures of male and female. It is much more acceptable for a woman to express masculine traits, than for a male to express femenine traits,challenging gender norms.

I never would dare to date them but its lovely to just chill and have a laugh and banter .

Occasionally things lead to more interaction between us. Never expect never pressure and just enjoy their company.

Some ladies are not interested at all that's fine just respect their views on what they like.

Its no different from anyone else on the scene with preferences .

I'm pan-romantic, but hetrosexual.

Basically I can fall in romantic love with anyone, but only be sexual with men.

So I would be happy to have a wonderful platonic relationship with anyone, including TV's, but I'm only going to be sexually active with cis men.

That's my preference, and I don't speak for all women. I'm sure there are plenty out there who would be totally fine with being sexual with TV's, but like any alternative lifestyle, it's just going to be a smaller pool.

This is the crux of the issue for Tgirls on here that are either straight or not, but want to have a relationship with a woman.

A woman that’s never been in a relationship with a TV will always have some misconceptions of what he’d be like. All of my previous relationships weren’t with women looking for a Tgirl but looking for a guy, then found out later I liked to dress. Did they immediately go off and find a ‘real man’ no, I talked through my desires to dress and what it meant to our relationship together.

So she’d know but never see me dressed, I’d go away and dress on my own. Or she’d see me dressed but no sex whilst in female mode or actively get involved as it was an exciting new world being opened up, you know like how some couples decide to start swinging.

What they don’t get, is a guy mincing about wearing eyeliner and lipstick in Male mode. But maybe they get a guy who’s happy to help around the house and fix the car, a guy who actually takes an interest in her fashions but at the same time discuss football if she enjoys sports. But most of all can keep his dressing between them in their relationship.

I’m an ex soldier, marathon runner, who’s rides motorbikes and enjoys football. I don’t present outwardly my crossdressing persona if you don’t know you’d probably not guess. I work and have a decent job and a very good father to my young sons, basically I’m not a bad catch in some ways.

But I could have a lot worse traits that some Men have and if crossdressing is my worst secret then for some women who’ve been in really toxic relationships a guy occasionally slipping into a dress would be a welcome relief to much worse behaviour.

My argument won’t convince any woman on here who doesn’t want a guy expressing a feminine side to his character. They are after what they desire and that should always be respected

But as Tgirls maybe it is down to us to convince those women who are sitting on the fence, maybe we are a new experience and can be the best of both worlds a sensitive guy who’s happy shoe shopping but also change the wheel on the car on the way home.

Obviously where trans women are concerned it could be different, but I don't find men who dress like women attractive - unless you're Tim Curry.

I find that a lot of cross dressers dress for the male eye too, almost fetishy, which I have no issue with but I don't find it attractive.

Very interesting answers and opinions. The trans community is very diverse and encompasses many different groups. But social stigma still leads to people hiding it all their lives, even from wives and children. I have known people lose wives,girlfriends, children, jobs,and some people to end their lives because of discrimination. There is still a long way to go to get true equality in many aspects.

I don't find cross dressing attractive, it's that simple.

OK so this could be a long one so bare with me on this.

Let's get the first thing out of the way, there are many different levels of what people see as crossdressers and that has the biggest bearing of things for most people regardless of looking to date or not, we are all blanketed under the same banner be it from a guy in his wife's knickers through to those who go out shopping to tesco during the day and who live a lot of the time as a 'female

Trans women I will leave out for this as they are women and not what the OP has asked about.

1, women dating crossdressers.

It does happen and probably more frequently than you think. Some are fully aware and embracing of it yet others may not even know their man is a crossdresser.

I've dated women who know I crossdress and have met them because I am a crossdresser. Honesty about being a crossdresser is key here from the get go.

2, Crossdressers being manly....are you serious? If you met me day to day you wouldnt have a damn clue. The only give away is that I have no body hair but then nor do many men, check out a lot of sportsmen and tell me a footballer, athlete or heavyweight boxer isn't manly.

I've got facial stubble, a deep voice, male physique so nobody is going to know unless I've got make up and a dress on....ask those who know me and they will tell you the transformation is glaring.

3, we may be gay or bisexual.

So may a non crossdressing guy be, your gender has sod all to do with your sexuality. Stereotypes abound here and are often wrong.

Yes I may meet couples but rest assured im coming after the wife and never the husband. I like femininity plain and simple.....I adore women!

As for health and sexual cleanliness, does make up mean im a walking STD? does that even warrant an answer?

As for what women want and look for, that's entirely up to them and there is no single answer at all as its down to personal preference.

Some like alpha males, some like androgynous men, some like effeminate men so that question is moot.

The one thing crossdressing has shown me particularly via FAB is that it is much easier to find women who will like you as a crossdresser but rest assured its because of who you are, not how you are dressed. Crossdressing CAN get you the attention you might be looking for, your personality does the rest.

Ad a side note, my one on one meets have mostly been as a male coming from my crossdressing account and very few have yet to meet Sophie but they will when time allows.

And breathe

Hello O.P.

I have a problem with your question.

It seems to be based on the idea that all tv's / ts's are male.

I deduced that because you address the question to women.

Also .... a few posts down you claim surprise at 'just how many women there are wanting to be men' ..... why the surprise? It's not something new.

To answer your Q from my own perspective it wouldn't bother me remotely to date a T.V. In fact quite a few of them are creative, exciting, interesting, arty , bold , highly sexual.

Some just look like blokes in frocks.

I'm not into the ones that think being a woman means looking like a two bit hooker in her little sisters skirt , size 12 shoes and being and entrant in the 'How thick, bright and trashy' make up competition.

The ones that are truly convincing and beautiful wouldn't appeal to me either - not when made up anyway. As a bloke they might.

T.S's are a different kettle of fish altogether. They become women. So .... no interest sexually on my part.

I don't think TV/TS is a good enough label to attach to the wide variety of genders / genderless humans out there.

Cutting to the quick .... in the end it's the person not the gender or the look. If I fancy and fall then I fancy n fall. The rest can be dealt with.

Do I go looking for problems ? NOPE.

I quite fancy Grayson Perry. Used to fancy Eddie Izzard.....

I have learnt from being trans, all my life, is that I will never understand the female thoughts process, because I was born male, and as such was programmed by society with male ideology. I don't know what it's like to have periods, or what it's like to give birth, have stretch marks, or a vagina. I can see where femenists are coming from, about what makes a woman, and I dare say I will be pilloried for saying it. But in the womb we are all subjected to hormones, which influence our development and sexuality, could it be we are your sisters under the skin? And either way I have great respect for females, and their rights, and would not intentionally be offensive by stating a hypothesis. Perhaps trans is between male and female, like in India with the hijra, trans women. Controversial I know

The OP asks, why don't women like dating TVs?

Well,there are at least two different scenarios I can envisage here.

Finding out that a partner likes to cross dress.

Specifically looking for a TV to date.

I imagine the first scenario would be quite easy to cope with. What's the harm,after all?

The second scenario? Definitely not for me. I suppose it's not unheard of,just seems unlikely.

"A question for the born females on fab. Why do you not like to date tvs? Is it because we are to much like you? Because of not being manly? Because we may be gay, bisexual? You are worried about sexual health issues? Just curious to know what you really think? Honesty more welcome than being politically correct. Give it to me girls

How about being a bit more positive? Sell the idea.

How about you say what you feel are the reasons anyone would like dating a tv?

This is the crux of the issue for Tgirls on here that are either straight or not, but want to have a relationship with a woman.

A woman that’s never been in a relationship with a TV will always have some misconceptions of what he’d be like. All of my previous relationships weren’t with women looking for a Tgirl but looking for a guy, then found out later I liked to dress. Did they immediately go off and find a ‘real man’ no, I talked through my desires to dress and what it meant to our relationship together.

So she’d know but never see me dressed, I’d go away and dress on my own. Or she’d see me dressed but no sex whilst in female mode or actively get involved as it was an exciting new world being opened up, you know like how some couples decide to start swinging.

What they don’t get, is a guy mincing about wearing eyeliner and lipstick in Male mode. But maybe they get a guy who’s happy to help around the house and fix the car, a guy who actually takes an interest in her fashions but at the same time discuss football if she enjoys sports. But most of all can keep his dressing between them in their relationship.

I’m an ex soldier, marathon runner, who’s rides motorbikes and enjoys football. I don’t present outwardly my crossdressing persona if you don’t know you’d probably not guess. I work and have a decent job and a very good father to my young sons, basically I’m not a bad catch in some ways.

But I could have a lot worse traits that some Men have and if crossdressing is my worst secret then for some women who’ve been in really toxic relationships a guy occasionally slipping into a dress would be a welcome relief to much worse behaviour.

My argument won’t convince any woman on here who doesn’t want a guy expressing a feminine side to his character. They are after what they desire and that should always be respected

But as Tgirls maybe it is down to us to convince those women who are sitting on the fence, maybe we are a new experience and can be the best of both worlds a sensitive guy who’s happy shoe shopping but also change the wheel on the car on the way home.

"

Thank you for this: rare to find a post to make me think/rethink!

I'm guilty of having a stereotypical view ie "mincing around in lipstick" whilst dressed as a man. Yes, that wouldn't be for me but a man who's in touch with his feminine side whilst saving me from tarantulas and wasps the size of chinooks...oooh...Yes please!

Maybe if the person is all about being TV, that's what puts some people off. Same as if a person was all about being into football (for example) and nothing else mattered.

If the person liked a bit of sport and a bit of theatre and a bit of gigs, it's different.

I think you make an important point. I have met girls for whom their life is being TV, and being TV is their entire life. They have trans friends, go to trans events, talk about matters of trans interest, wear trans clothes... On the other hand for some of us being trans is just one aspect of who we are. We have friends, go to events, talk about matters of interest, wear clothes... I see myself as a person who happens to be trans, but being trans is not the whole of my life...

Thanks for this, as it takes time to try and write something and try not to be patronising or belittling other peoples perspectives. So the fact it made you reconsider some of your concerns, means it was worth writing.

It should also be noted, the reason I joined up, took up boxing whilst in the Army and played rugby (not football thats for sissies ) as when I was younger I’d fight those feelings by trying to be ultra macho, ensure I matched up or bettered other guys. Knowing I had a softer side within that needed expressing outwardly.

Me and my Wife (16 years together) didn’t split up over my crossdressing, in fact she admitted missed my feedback over clothes and borrowing my makeup but other reasons that long term couples go through.

My crossdressed self is a completely different part of my personality and can only be shared with those I truly feel comfortable with. A partner would always have the right to be totally separate from that part or join in. Just like any hobby if you’re both into it (like swinging) then a new life and interests can be discovered, life’s about new experiences

I like men in some womens clothing, but I'm not a fan of a faceful of make up on men or women (or myself) so while I admire the time and skill involved I've never found that kind of TV sexually attractive.

Never say never tho.

Perfectly explained Polly! That goes for Abby too. Mostly we lead a normal life together but it’s always handy if I’ve run out of nail Polish or need some stockings!

This is the way I feel:

Why do you not like to date tvs? Because I'm attracted to men, and I like them to look like men. I wouldn't find my/a man dressed as a woman attractive.

Is it because we are to much like you? No

Because of not being manly? Yes

Because we may be gay, bisexual? The above is the main reason, I don't know if TVs are gay/bi or if it varies by individual.

You are worried about sexual health issues? Now you mention it, maybe, if you're meeting men.

I've had sex with women and couples in swingers clubs, there are some women that find us attractive sexually and some that don't. Just like any other preference. As for dating well that's a different matter. My ex wife knew all about Lisa from day one and was happy with it but it was me, as a man, she lived with the majority of the time. When we visited swingers clubs or met other couples at home I was always Lisa then. Unless you live full time as a girl then any woman, who could accept cross dressing, has still got to be attracted to the "man" underneath first and foremost when it comes to dating.

There shouldn't be, I know. It's a crappy preconception that men are more likely to engage in high risk behaviour. Rationally I know that's not true for all men.

Some TV's are very fortunate to have supportive wives and girlfriends and family members, but a lot don't. For some women it's definitely a deal breaker, I have been dumped immediately for being honest, on fourth date. One burst in to tears. Men definitely have more issues with it, I was outed at work, and got lots of abuse and sexual innuendo. But it's best to be honest, than live a lie.

Ok here’s my thoughts, I’ve been a bit of a play around man, I have been pretty bad and very unfaithful. Now I’m a tv I still love women and am so attracted to a bald pussy, tattoos mmmmmmm. Pierced nipples mmmmmm too.,.i love dressing and started very late in life, mainly through depression anger issues, medication etc, they give guys like me estrogen to counter act the excessive testosterone, this I feel more feminine now..

I’ve been very very ill and therapy even gave me a stroke...

Life’s been very difficult over last few years, but hey I’m still here.

I love life now..

I love being alive, being here for my wife my kids etc, I’m human first..

Now I adore the female form, but I don’t get erections now, so I’m mostly useless to females now,that’s not my fault, it’s life and hard facts.

But I still enjoy the thought and my imagination is still full or eroticism.

Don’t paint TV’s as bad press..

I’d date women if I could, wife isn’t bothered about sexanymore, but my magic pills help.

If I had the opportunity to meet any ladies off here I would very much like to do that

It's more just that men - on the whole - are far less discerning than women when it comes to casual sex partners, and thus the average gay/bi man will have had more sexual partners than the average straight man. Every extra person is an increased risk, hence the greater prevalence in the MSM population as a whole.

Absolutely right. I was together with my ex for 17 years and I told her about Lisa (well I was called Tanya then but that's irrelevant!) from day 1 as I can't live a lie or deceive someone. I'd say 95% of the time I was the guy she fell in love with but she also loved Lisa/Tanya too. We split up 3 years ago (nothing to do with the cross dressing) but we are still great friends and still go out clothes shopping etc together.
