Hi Clayona, good question(s). Hope some other board members ad their takes as well.

For me, I like to see both TS and GG providers. When you see a hobbyist here asking if a girl is real or a fake, it usually means that they are asking if the lady in question is worth paying a visit to or not. Since this is a review site, most of us are here to meet ASP's and we don't want to spend our cash on ladies who are not good dates. Ladies who post ads using fake pictures are fakes. Ladies who promise all kinds of great things in their ads, and then don't do what they say they will when you meet them may not be fakes, but that would count too, imo.  TS providers who have reviews and reputations as ladies "with something extra" and then don't mention the fact that they have had SRS, and see clients who are expecting a date with a lady who is still sporting original equipment, fake? That's kind of a gray area, but I would say fake to that as well. Like  you say, guess it varies from person to person.

For me, personally, since I like to see GG's too, don't think I would be too interested in meeting a post op TS lady, since I could call a GG provider to begin with if that was the kind of date I was after.

Best of luck with the procedure and for how everything goes for you.

Thanks for the responses.

It's rather disappointing that it seems post-op TS are kind of singled out in a way. I know there's some people who have a phobia about TS so I understand the importance of making it clear that we are one, but other than that it seems unfair that we're a "niche" and a small one at that. Assuming a TS goes to a good surgeon, and doesn't have any other masculine signs (which can also generally be taken care of by surgery if required) there shouldn't be any noticeable difference by hobbyists that a woman is TS or GG.

It seems like this is something that needs to change in some way. I'm not really sure of the normal etiquette for sites like this, but imo a post-op TS should be allowed to post as a female, and just make a note (that's clearly visible) that they're a TS. I think something like that for post-op TS would lead to a lot more good providers showing up, which anyone without transphobia would like just as much, if not more than GGs. People could then decide based on pictures and such if they'd want to give the TS a try rather than us being sort of a subgroup of TS that most people looking for TS aren't going to be interested in companionship with.

I agree with all said so far... .

Definetly be upfront and don't claim to be a GG... that is problematic and unfortunatley with homophobia still prevelent in our society you run the risk to "tricking" the wrong guy and thus becoming a statistic that no one here wants to see happen!

In my mind Post-Op is pointless... if I wanted to be with a woman I'd see a GG. The whole purpose of being with a TS is to do something you otherwise could not with a GG. I suppose there might be those who are curious and that may be the niche but unless you are famous like Danielle Foxx... I don't think there will be much demand.
