so uhhh this feels awkward but this seems like a safe space with lots of trans ppl, and i saw another thread about racism so i thought this was ok? idk. i just wanna know and feel weird at the possibility of me being a trans chaser.

if you dont know what that is, it means a person (usually cis) that dates or “chases” exclusively trans people for gross reasons like f3ti$hiz@ti0n. i myself find in between trans and cis, since i have an idea that my gender is mostly feminine aligned while being AFAB.

i always just find trans people more attractive than cis people, idk why. like i have a preference for people who dont fit heteronormative stereotypes. like fem guys and such. i totally understand that trans men and men and trans women are women, no matter what, but they fall into this preference too. i have a transmasc/man (idk what he prefers and lets call him purple) whos like REALLY attractive. like REAAAAALLY. i wanna kiss him so badddd. i also have another trans friend who i think i have a crush on? idk i have a hard time differentiating platonic from romantic.

a reason this worries me is that i know a boy irl (lets call him fish) who is a chaser. he has hit on and nearly asked out every transmasc (or boy) in school including my previously mentioned friend, purple (who barely know each other). fish also used to date another trans boy friend (emphasis on the space), smoke (not real name). he messed up smoke reaaaal bad, like really. fish is now in one of my classes and i kinda talk to him? idk i feel bad about it.

im so scared im like fish and am a chaser. like id hate to be gross about trans people. do yall think im a chaser? if so, how can i improve? please im too scared to ask my friends about this because itd be just weird.

@Washi_Tape: yeah, if you are afraid of being the problem, you’re probably not

(I’m a trans man btw) but “fish” is annoying and stupid, you are not doing anything wrong. You are allowed to have a preference wether it be feminine men or trans men or whatever. As long as you don’t go out looking SPECIFICALLY for trans people to be attracted to, you are perfectly fine

I honestly dont think you are

it seems more like you just have a preference for people who dont act/dress like well cishet ppl tend to

which is completely fine! It really doesnt seem like you are being a chaser, I used to date someone who was, and they were

so disrespectful

and it seems ur quite respectful, simply going based off the fact your worried about being a chaser, most people who are chasers wouldnt care to be worried about it, but- to me, it seems like your not one

(sorry if this makes no sense, for some reason english is failing me right now)

honestly, just having a preference isn’t bad. It’s when you only want people who fit that narrow preference that it starts to get weird. Like, if you find trans people more attractive in general, that’s different from hitting on someone BECAUSE they’re trans. You should be able to see them as more than just being your type, and see them as a human being. I think you’re fine

I'm Nonbinary so idk if you consider me trans or not, but I honestly don't think you are a chaser. Unless you are being weird about it (like saying stuff like (TW) "she-males are hot" or something like that, I don't think you are a chaser. If anything, you just have a preference for feminine traits in males and masculine traits in females- regardless of gender identity. I'm thankful you are so considerate! rainbowsmile
