Why or why not?

If so, would it depend on how they present or their assigned gender at birtb or something else?

(Edit: fixed AGAB to confuse less people. Sorry people.)

    I was never interested in dating anyone queer while I was looking. it’s not the kind of relationship I’m looking for. I more want a regular guy who wants to be the dad and who will likewise let me be the mom. new boyfriend is like that and we’re happily getting to know each other.

    I would but only if there’s no drama (their personality). Dont know what AGAB is but as long as we’re both focused on building our future together, sounds golden mate

    Yes.

    I see two scenarios. One, they catfish me if they can pass for a regular straight man. How I react to this when I find out will depend a lot on their personality and how everything unfolded, but it’s very likely I’d be very angry about them lying.

    The other scenario is one in which our personalities click really well, so well we would be besties. But the advances would theirs. Again, how I respond to these advances would vary a lot but if we already have that exceptional affinity then it’s likely to go well. I think looks would be important here, they don’t need to look masculine but they would need to have somewhat conventionally attractive features. I’m boring and limited like that, sorry.

    Yeah, if we were into each other. How they present and their AGAB matching my own preferences would be a factor.

    But at the end of the day, my “straightness” is just a convenient label. If someone gets voted in by the Tribunal (Heart, Mind, and Cock), all labels are ultimately superfluous.

    If we got along and I found them attractive, sure.

    Are they going to put up with me playing copious amounts of city building games, my weekly Dungeons & Dragons game, and never shutting up about Aztec history?

    I’d be surprised if a straight dude would date a non-binary person with a dick. Less surprised but similarly with straight women and vaginas.

    Depends if they have a pussy. In general most non-binary people I’ve met haven’t been particularly androgynous. Which is one of the reasons they confuse me.

    But yeah if they’ve got the body type I enjoy and a good personality then sure. No way I could make a universal statement though.

      Yep. There’s a general confusion between gender identity and gender expression, that’s why you “expect” non-binary to look androgynous. But indeed, a nonbinary can have a cisman-passing or a ciswoman-passing. I am non-binary and I “look like a man” and it causes me to be insulted or mocked when I go out with makeup or wearing a skirt.

      But yeah basically all you need to understand is that gender identity does not have to match a gender expression.

    That sounds like it would only work if the straight person can easily interpret the non-binary person as “basically like a cis man/woman just with different pronouns”, and the non-binary person either has the same set of genitals that you’d expect based on their appearance, or the straight person just doesn’t care about unexpected genitals, which seems rare.

    But I’m bi, so I wouldn’t know.

    Yes. If they look feminine and their AGAB is female and I find them attractive and enjoyable to be around. Relevant to your question - if they check the first two boxes, then while intellectually I can appreciate that they see themselves as not fitting into the traditional feminine category, my dick will disregard this and say “THAT LADY. WANT FUCK.” And if this person wants to use they/them pronouns and checks all my other boxes, then their nonbinary status is essentially irrelivant to my descision making process.

    I still don’t know what that means.

    Probably yes, to me it is not really important how they identify.
    The only label I’m interested in is if I like a person or not. If they plan to change that person in the future, is possible that in the future I don’t like them anymore but that can happen anyway without any planned change.

      I still don’t know what that means

      AGAB = Assigned gender at birth.

      I had to do a search to figure that one out. Feels like these abbreviations are popping up all the time and everyone just sort of assumes everyone else knows what they mean.

      What ever happened to “this is the way everyone should use abbreviations, first write the whole thing, Assigned Gender At Birth (AGAB), then add the abbreviation in parentheses like so. After that you can use AGAB freely and everyone knows what it means.”
