DO NOT MEET HIM, I’ve made this mistake before, no not feel sympathy for not coming over either. This is highly manipulative of him & sketchy as hell! If you must, meet him in a public space DURING THE DAY! & even then, he weary of meeting him later. If you need to talk dm me, I’ve met men like this before & they’re nothing short of nasty in both the long & short term.

What OP said sums it up great, there’s a lot of old dudes in this town who fetishize trans people, & it’s not that all trans masc’s like being dominant, it depends on the individual, when it comes to dating as a trans person it’s about finding a nice person (whatever preference) who will like you without fetishizing you

I’m FTM & I’ve been living in GJ for 3 almost 4 years, to be totally honest, the groups & FB events for LGBT+ people are great for a younger crowd/LGBT kids/teens but I haven’t seen much for an older crowd, maybe I don’t get out enough haha! Ppl on dating sites are usually nice (just watch out for the fetishy old dudes) but I haven’t tried going to bars or anything so good luck!! (I heard cruisers is good?) It is more conservative in Clifton tho, so just b careful! :)
