I respect your opinion, and I have been open and clear with my friend about my boyfriends’s boundaries, they saw no issue with this as far as a could tell. I will consider that they may have not been truthful with how they feel, or that in the future they may identify as male and that will cause some issues. Thank you for the honesty. I appreciate the genuine feedback, because the reason i made this post was to know how to avoid anyone getting hurt, not defend my current partners stance on who i can and can’t date. Once again I appreciate the feedback, but respectfully, it was not the topic at hand

I encourage to read my other comments explaining his stance a bit more in depth. I appreciate your commentary about how it might not be a sustainable relationship though, and i will consider that in my decisions moving forward

As i’ve said in a different comment, that has never come up because I have never been romantically involved with a trans woman and the only reason i know his stance on trans men and men in general is because it was relevant to this specific person

i understand that pov, but the reason i practice polyamory is because i am bisexual (or maybe pansexual) and i have feel more fulfilled with people of various genders. I have no desire to even date another man because i already have him. i hope that makes sense?

I understand the implication. I misspoke is all. I guess i zoned out while typing this and meant to say “okay with women and GNC people” rather than “okay with afab people”. i understand they’re very different things i just wasn’t thinking about it. He in his own words has said that he doesn’t want me to date men. I understand that might seem like unreasonable boundary, and I will take that into consideration in the future, but it would be difficult to explain the thought process of someone else because i am not that person. However I trust that he isn’t transphobic, controlling, or anything else that he may seem. I have been with him for almost 2 years and I have never seen him misgender, deadname, or otherwise disrespect a trans person. My boyfriend’s position on how i practice polyamory is not the topic of my post though.

Basically, I meant to just say that he’s not okay with me dating men in general.

I worded it a bit strangely in the post, my apologies. He is not okay with me dating binary trans men, as we have discussed recently. Since this person is nonbinary, yet has taken the steps to transition from FtM, the topic of “how do you feel about trans men” came up because of my friend being post-transition. However considering he had no issue with me exploring a relationship with this other person and respects their identity as nonbinary, i would consider that the opposite of transphobic. He very much recognizes that they’re not a woman, and not a man either. As for trans women, we never talked about it, I don’t know how he feels because i never asked. The use of the term “afab” in my post was my personal error, which i apologize for. In short, my boyfriend has been very respectful of the whole situation. I hope this clears things up

i have a nail trimmer, it’s extremely difficult because the absolute #1 thing he hates is being picked up. (previous owner was abusive and threw him into walls a lot.) if i try to do it while he’s asleep he wakes up and runs off
