Ladies: Clocking men, Transgender Intuition?

[Remy]

Is there a way you go about "clocking" men in public?

Like, How do you know if he's approachable or not? Or if he is "open minded" ? Is it Transgender intuition? Or is it a Union trade secret? :^)

LOL!! @ "Union Trade secret"....Rems...I think this a pretty good question. I personally tend to not approach men. I've never really been "boy crazy"...because I've always been in a relationship....and even when I'm single...my experience has taught me that if guys were REALLY interested enough...they would normally approach me. Like any woman...Trans or Non-Trans...I check out the guys who speak to me and see what they are about. I tend to be patient when getting to know a guy. Because, honestly- I've never been a fan of "quickies"...and I doubt guys want to stick around for a girl that gives a guy "a quick sample".
As the old adage goes... "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" and in some cases...I've met a few girls who allow guys to not only get the milk, but shiit....they get the cold cuts, the steaks,and even the cowbell for free!!! :lol:
Oh damn...I've gone off on another tangent. Well...in any event...I hope I've answered your question.

Well, what we need then is more women who cowbell! :cowbell:

Anthony...you're bananas! :D

[AnthonyL]

well i may be silly, but im not :bananas: :bananas: :bananas:

[Remy]

I'm wondering if it has to do with 'Eye Contact' though? The Eyes tell a lot about a person from Men and Woman. Looking at her for than 8-10 seconds may give her a signal that she can approach you or vice versa.

If I am interested in a person, I look at the totality of the person. As such I
try to really get to know them. And like June states I'm not one for quickies
or casual sex.

At this stage of my life, I'm more into LTRs, and while a glance across a
room, or catching the eye of a stranger as I walk down the street could
conceivably lead to a lifetime relationship, it assuredly will not lead to sex
by the end of the day, week, or even the month.

As I have oft-times stated, "it would be easier for a camel to get through
the eye of a needle, than a stranger to get between my legs".

Hmm.. But if you don't know the person at all and never spoken with them, what gives you the indication that He may be approachable or even considered Boyfriend material?

[MsDazzler]

in my experiences, it s very difficult to tell whether the guy s going to be amenable. I have had many unpredictable encounters where I thought the guy was going to change his mind or back off once finding out but he didnt, and other encounters where i thought the guy would be open minded but he wasn't. So, I guess there s no real transgender intutition for the men who like Tgirls.. unless obviously, if we all are at a tranny party. lol

[Remy]

I think looking seems to play huge roll. When I was on the train today. There is this young TG (<21) and she sat on the opposite side of the train and I can just feel someone just staring at me. When I finally looked over, it was actually her. But, as soon as I look, she looks away. As I turn back to the Newspaper, she's back to doing it again. As she walks off the train, she's looking thru the window.

I don't understand women. If you want to talk, just open your mouth. It's not that hard.

LoL, men are always like that too. They just like to stare but they will never say anything.


I have no idea how to "clock" men, I don't know if they are attracted to me because I am a genetic woman or I am a TS so I just ignore all of them. I don't feel comfortable approaching strangers in public.

[Remy]

I don't feel comfortable approaching strangers in public.

But, a stranger is a stranger. So whether it's public or private, you still don't know him. So, no time like the present. ;)

I think the man should make the first move. I am traditional like that, lol.

There were a few guys whistling at me yesterday and trying to talk to me, I didn’t feel good, I felt scared.

I rather meet someone I‘ve talked to online so I know something about the person before ever meeting him but I am not really desperate for guys , because it takes time.

[MizzJune]

WORD!
For me...it'll be a cold ass day in hell before I strike up a conversation with a guy.
Honestly...it's just not cool to go after a guy on the street (unless I'm drunk!:wasted:)... running after guys just seems...desperate.

[flombago]

Well, I guess you could "clock" men by being on a Tgirl chatroom or a forum like this, right ?

I always found that the best way to meet people was through the "friend of a friend" network. Like you go to a dinner party and someone new shows up. If I were a Tgirl (hypothetically) I'd have my circle of friends, similarly to now, and people who entered that circle would be the candidates for my affection. A classroom in school is also a good bet, if you're young enough to be in school or college. For me, random public encounters or bars never worked well -- the women were almost always too different from me.

[Remy]

For me...it'll be a cold ass day in hell before I strike up a conversation with a guy.

So if you see someone you like, you won't ever approach? If the guy likes you, but can't approach there is no way to clock whether or not you're open to convo. But, if you like him, he won't know because you refuse to approach.

That seems like a very (unnecessary) vicious cycle.

Okay, so when's the next Tranny party???

I'm very gregarious, very outgoing. I will strike up a conversation with
someone (male or female, young or old) standing in a supermarket line,
etc.

Or depending on my mood, I may have on my walkman, and my Foster-
Grants, and be in my own little world.

But I never look at someone at say "gee I'd like to kick it with them", or
"I bet our babies would be cute".

I've learned that all nice looking people aren't nice, and that sometimes
the less than perfect looking one is the keeper.

Thus, as I said upthread i get to know the person, before we get emotionally
intimate or sexually intimate. Pre and post op, I have had fairly good fortune
vis a vis relationships. And though we may later 'crash and burn' relationship
wise, my transtatus tends not to be a negating factor.

I'm reading this and thinking of lesbian sheep.

Work with me here. :D

Apparently, in the land of wooly creatures, if the female is of a nature to boogy down, she stands perfectly still and waits for the male to mount her.

If the two critters involved are both female (And there have been studies to show that there are, oddly enough - either the study or the fact, I haven't decided yet -, gay sheep). they dutifully stand perfectly still, waiting for the other to mount. Assuming that one is on =this= side of the field and the other on =that= side of the field, you can see how this becomes rather impractical as regards the desired result.

I've had 'gay sheep' dates, it gets touchy and somewhat boring (Sitting naked, on opposite sides of the bed, saying "I dunnuo, what do =you= wanna do?" to each other all nite). :roll:

Yesterday's Non Sequitor by Wiley showed it best: A man and a woman sitting at opposite ends of a bar, each thinking "Where are all the good men/women looking for good women/men?". In the next panel they notice each other and smile. Returning to their drinks in the last panel they are both thinking (In reference to each other) "Loser".

And this is why dating has always been a serious pain for me. :mad:

I've had social/professional (Work stuff, not escorts) encounters with TS/TG people and while I'm sure that my interest and enthusiasm at meeting them was rather clear, they were pretty clear about not wanting to have much to do with me beyond that initial meeting.

It all comes back to that "If you don't know, I'm not gonna tell you and if you know, I'm not interested" grabitch. :mad:

[WillowQueen]

Gets naked.

I dunno what do you wanna do?
