Went to a theatre competition, sat in a hot classroom for 3 hours, chatted with everybody near me to keep sane, talked to a cute blonde the most, got her number, been texting for two days.

Shame she lives clear across town. Still though.

Ehhh... It depends. It seems dickish on the surface (and I'm sure more than a few of them are ignorant of trans* stuff, including personal feelings of legitimacy), but some kinda find it deceitful when they're looking for cismen and find transmen, which just isn't the same. It's a bit vain, but not really too different than the people who prefer certain skin tones or hair colors or personalities or whatever. Ultimately, it's their love life and their choice, whether the reasons are agreeable or not.

It sucks that you went through that wiffle, and dating sites are full of dicks no matter the orientation. You're far better off without dealing with people who don't accept you.

I'm sure you'll eventually find someone.

And dire beat me to it. Stupid phone.

Hell...even if you took two straight people of the opposite gender and put them together, there's no guarantee they'd hook up because even when things are that straight forward there's no assurance of attraction.
This. A complication to come out of discovering that homosexuality is found to be completely biological is that sexual attraction is also completely biological. While the last part wasn't exactly something we had to discover, the implication is still there that we can't just ignore it. Imagine there was someone you click with on an emotional level in the same way you'd consider clicking with a significant other, but they're not the gender you're physically attracted to, possibly even to the point where the simple thought of sexual relations causes you to wince. What do you do then?

It's not deceitful, like at all. Not only does my profile state that I am trans but even if it didn't I AM A GUY.
Anyway since there's nobody for me I think I'll go off and die alone in a hole somewhere.

That's a reasonable, adult decision to make.

I thought it was some hideous scar where they'd conjoined themselves at the hand.

The reality of the picture is much better, congratulations!

Second physiology lecture, second cute girl successfully talked to and name acquired.

I've got this "talking" thing down, it's just this "dating" thing that gets me...
