He’s talking about dating adverts, not flirting.
I suppose it’s like ‘no dogs, no blacks, no Irish’ from one POV. But everyone has preferences. Rich, thin, blonde, big dick, educated - it’s not a rabbit hole I want to descend.
Transgender is it just me that is totally perplexed?

It's nothing like the no blacks, no irish thing at all.
Dating is a very personal thing, you're looking for someone to spend time with and sexual connection is a massive part of that, personally I don't fancy blondes, dunno why, also not attracted to blokes, that's an easy one for me, transgenders, if they pass I may be interested but most of them seem to still have cocks, so fuck that.
I said “I suppose it’s like ... from one PoV” - please don’t misrepresent me in order to virtue signal in future. Thanks in advance.

But when people are openly stating their desires, how they do so is useful for instance in assessing whether they are a bigot, a racist or indeed transphobic.

Fucking virtue signal, say what you fucking mean instead of bringing external bias into personal coupling.
Daft cunt.
I did, several times and all I get is that you should accommodate sexual partners that you are not attracted to because of 'reasons'

Well then i catagorise you as being a turgid thick idiot. Why dont you quote the bits of what I wrote that informs your vom sorry view?
'Transgender' is an adjective, not a noun.
Sorry, I have looked
but I can't find that info anywhere in the pdf you linked to. Could you quote it here or point to the exact page no & paragraph, please?

So you believe in Dysphoria then?

Being able to make things and design things on this planet instead of being a gobshite on the internet makes me a lot more above you, what have you done in the world that has changed anything?

Indeed, someone who says "no blacks" on a personal ad could well indeed be a massive fucking racist. Or they're simply not turned on by dark skin. Since racists can be attracted to dark skin, it doesn't seem unreasonable to extrapolate that the inverse can happen, people who aren't raging bigots who aren't attracted to dark skin.
Trying to police that sounds like an ethical and moral minefield at best. I'm not sure what good it would do either.

I'm on my phone so I can't quote it. But it's on the first paragraph of the second page. It cites Dutch research.
What does "believing in" (I'm not even sure what you mean by that) dysphoria have to do with grammar?

So why bring it up as a grammar attack when you haven't got a fucking clue what I am leading towards, did you just want to shut down that tangent of discourse?
Do you believe gender dysphoria is real?

'transgenders' is offensive, just as ''gays' or 'disableds' would be. They're people, not things. The adjective describes the people.

How is transgender offensive?
How else does the layperson who doesn't give a shit about 0.3% of the population refer to them? Especially when they are so vocal, violent and predatory?
Well I experience it myself, so yes.
What exactly were you leading towards that couldn't be said just as well with the grammatically correct and non-dehumanising phrase "transgender people" (or "transgender women" or whatever)?

No, not explicitly. But...
Medical treatment are classified as hormones, top surgery and genital surgery or a combination thereof. Not necessarily all three. So if a fifth of all transgender people seek medical treatment, and not all are going to seek all the treatment, then it is reasonable to say that less than 20% will have genital surgery, meaning that more than 80% do not.

I'm trying to find a common ground here, most people that live their lives don't give a shit about this, I'm the devil's advocate.

Naw, you're being a prick.I'm trying to find a common ground here, most people that live their lives don't give a shit about this, I'm the devil's advocate.
Ah right, I get where you're coming from now, cheers.
I'm still not entirely convinced, but I cba looking up all the research and I probably don't understand statistics enough anyway

The 700,000 figures is "people who are gender incongruent to some degree" - of these around a fifth are estimated to go on to seek medical assistance and so less than that will actually have treatment.
This figure will though include occassional crossdressers, non binary people or other variations who will probably never even socially transition and don't want to - so I'm not sure it is that useful to say 80% of people who would normally be thought of as transgender, as in people who live in a different gender to the one assigned at birth will never seek any assistance or treatment. The pool is much larger than that.
