No, but they didn't say not date, they said not attracted to.
Attraction can change as you learn more about a person. There's plenty of people on tinder who looked hot in their pictures but their bio then went on to turn me off.
So you were never attracted to those people?
There was initial attraction but the additional information killed it.
So in other words, you are not defending the statement that the commenter was making, about never experiencing attraction?
I don't see such a statement in this comment chain. Closest thing is "exclusive sexual interest", which isn't as broad as "experiencing attraction" and also doesn't imply a magical way of filtering out anyone he believes is in that group but isn't.
Do you consider yourself attracted to AI, cartoons, and or wax figures? Or do withhold judgment until you find out if they are human?
So in this metaphor trans people are AI, cartoons, and wax figures, and cis people are human?
Or, on a less confrontational tact, do you only experience attraction once you've confirmed that the person is cis? How does that work, do you ask for medical records before having an initial impression of people?
They didn't actually use either of those terms.
