The information can't affect my attraction but if I was bigoted I could convince myself otherwise, repress my true feelings and pretend to no longer be attracted for bigoted reasons.
Quote:We could take into account preference and maybe there will be a lost of interesest in wanting to go on with the interaction but that is just speculation.
Well, the only reason to lose interest on the outside, despite still being interested deep down on the outside, are reasons that are phobic and bigoted.
Quote:Btw, I think homophobic is the apropriate term for this situation.
I don't because we are talking about someone who becomes phobic once discovering someone is trans, right? We're not talking about being phobic of someone once discovering the person is gay, we're talking about being phobic of someone once discovering that they are trans and not cis. As if that makes a difference to how attracted you are when it doesn't, but if you're anti-trans you're certainly going to act like you're no longer attracted even when you are.
I mean, sure, it would be similar to someone who believed they were a hereosexual man and then discovered they were attracted to another man and then suddenly pretended not to be and buried those feelings because they wanted to continue to believe that they were fully straight, as if there's something wrong with suddenly realizing you're partly gay when there isn't. That would be homophobic, and that is analogous to what we're talking about but we're talking about someone discovering someone is trans.

3) The physical aspect of maleness before me is sexually arousing despite the biological gender.
Right. And if you thought they were a cis man and then you discover their DNA is actually similar to that of a cis woman, so what? What possible motive is there for pretending your body isn't reacting the way it just did a split second ago besides "OH NOES I'M SUPPOSED TO ONLY LIKE CIS MEN YUCK TRANS MAN! ICKY TRANS."
Or "OH NOES MY RELIGIOUS BELIEF NOT ALLOW IT EVEN THOUGH I FEEL IT! BETTER PRETEND NOT TO FEEL WHAT I FEEL! GOES AGAINST MY IDENTITY CAN'T LIKE CAN'T LIKE SCRATCH OUT SCRATCH OUT ERASE FROM MEMORY BURY IN THE SAND!"
