Hello CK.

If it wasn't for your final statement, I wouldn't have replied as I'm single.

Ideally I'll attract or be attracted to a female who's open-minded about my transgender identity. It's reasonable to say I think that a lady who wants a manly man isn't going to be interested in me for the long-run. I've talked about this a lot in this thread:

I usually have two reasons why I don't disclose my transgender identity with someone: there is no reason to, or the cons greatly outweigh the pros. There's good reason to share such personal information with a significant other, and if it would rock the boat too much to destroy the relationship beyond repair, I would question how good it was to begin with. In other words, I don't foresee myself as having a meaningful and committed relationship unless she's already on board with all aspects of myself. I think this is a much different situation than those who already got married or whatever before starting up with NBE and whatnot.

Correct me if I'm wrong, Flame, but my impression is that you normally project your feminine side in daily life, at least, to some extent. So, any woman that is attracted to you would probably suspect (or even anticipate) that you are transgender. That saves you from being in the position down the road of having to fess up, risking an end to a budding relationship. (The word 'budding' seems to fit nicely here )
