as much as the LGBTQ community do not owe anyone any explanation concerning their sexuality, I feel they at least owe their partners that honesty that comes with relationships. Letting their partners know they’re trans. What do y’all think about this?
Should transgender men and women let their partners know they’re trans even without asking?

Does someone who is infertile have to declare their infertility? No. Being transgender is not an STD. Therefore, a transgender person doesn’t have to tell you anything. If you claim not to be attracted to trans people, well, maybe you should check yourself again. The issue lies with your own rigid notions about your sexuality, not that person. Moreover, if you have preferences about your sexual partners regarding their hair color, genital status or whatever else, it’s your job to communicate that. It’s not a trans person’s job to warn you that you may in fact be attracted to people that you never thought you could.
Ordinarily, transgender people don’t have to, but it will mess up their relationship since keeping secrets from a straight guy or girl who is interested in the opposite sex will be disappointed in that transgender person and will more likely cut off communication from that person. If you keep your transgender identity to yourself without telling that special someone you like, then that means you’re mostly ashamed of who you are since you’re not being honest to yourself or proud on what you represent. what happens if a straight guy or girl wants to have a child that’s of their bloodline? what will you say if you got that far into the relationship or marriage without telling him/her on who you really are since transgender people can’t reproduce if they got their ovaries or penis removed? Not disclosing on who you really are will make the relationship fake instead of genuine and it will create tension where the marriage will end badly if your wife/husband find out about who you are by looking at your medical history or contact with the parents. What happens if that individual you date hates transgender people? Thing can end badly if you keep up with the secrecy by not being upfront.
