CMV: it is not bigoted not to want to date trans people as a whole.

Yea I understand that, but it's still biased. I am also biased in a very similar fashion, I once ended a relationship because the girl had crohn's and I just don't want to deal with that for the rest of my life. I would probably sleep with a trans person, but I'd also probably avoid dating one seriously because of the higher than normal chances that they suffer from depression and will eventually commit suicide. I don't think any of this makes me bigoted, I'm not trying to tell them how to live their lives, but I am being selfish and biased in my choices in order to give myself the best chance at having an easy life. Again, I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with that but it's important to call a spade a spade, imo, lest we lose our intellectual integrity.
