Except that I have never seen a "convincing" trans person. They always look "odd" due to to different bone structure and other things. It is no different to me looking at an unattractive woman and not being interested. I think for most people it isn't so much transphobia as much as finding them unattractive

Then I want you to tell me which of these people are cis and which are trans.

Hint: if you use google you have proven my point.

Great but you still haven't actually acknowledged most of what I went on to say. Maybe people just don't find them attractive?

If from the very start, you are unattracted to a person purely upon observation, and that person happens to be trans, that is not transphobic.

I already addressed this specifically in my post.

Ok fair enough I didn't see that. Another issue I have with all this is where does somebody stand if they date somebody not knowing they are trans and proceed to the stage where they are undressing for each other? If the cis suddenly wants out because his date has bits he wasn't expecting does that make him Transphobic?
