More importantly, I have no idea how many people are primarily attracted to trans individuals, but I’m fairly certain we’re talking about a tiny fraction of the population. If I recall correctly, research suggests that attraction toward them mostly comes from the heterosexual demographic rather than the gay community. Basically, a homophobe is going to label a trans woman as some kind of freak or a societal epidemic threatening to ruin kids' sexuality. Meanwhile, a gay man is just going to stick to his own gender and won't lose much sleep over a man with breasts or a woman with a penis. But for straight men, a trans woman is often just as attractive
as any other woman, and despite all the social stigma, some straight guys clearly don't find them off-putting at all.
