You see two men. One is white, one isn't. If you treat them differently based on this one trait, that's racism (obviously, ill intent, systemic opression are important variable I didn't take into account here, but) ->
"At least I hope I am correct in assuming that 'transgender woman' means that a penis is still attached to such a person." <- 1)Focus on the cis-perceived difference between cis and transwomen. Again, genitals are none of your fucking business. Also, no, the difference between a cis woman and a transwoman is that one wasn't attributed to correct gender at birth. This is true for 100% of trans people, and you can't say that about a lot of things.
"Simply ask yourself if you would draw a line between dating women and transgender women; if you are honest about it, the chance is higher than 99% that you will draw a line." <- That's the very definition of discrimination and an ill focus. Don't define us trough your sexuality. Well, this is actually dumb of me. Don't define people based on your sexuality, and that's fucking it. Trans hyper fetishization is extremely damaging, and leads to a shitload of violence (verbal, sexual, physical).
"I assume this is an issue of society trying to make absolutely everything normal and acceptable." <- What does that mean ? explain it to me like I'm 5, what exactly isn't normal and acceptable ? I would love to know.

@1st bold When it comes to the person you're dating, yes they fucking are!
@2nd bold Not only is perfectly acceptable to define potential dating/sexual partners (or not) based on your own sexuality (like, what else would you even base it on?) but I have no doubt at all that you do the exact same thing.

1) Except no trans peeps should someone who thinks that (that'll end badly), and the POV isn't into trans'. If you're not intimate with the person, you don't have to have any knowledge of their genitalia.
2) This has nothing to do with how you see your partner and everything to do with how people here are talking about trans people when they are 1, cis, and 2 apparently not attracted to them, so not concerned at all by trans people in the dating pool.
bolded: i have no reason to talk about my sexuality here, has it has nothing to do with the subject.
