“Hey, is that a dating site for Transgender women you are looking at?” I asked Lindsay, a T-girl friend of mine. I was looking over her shoulder at her laptop screen.

“Yes, it’s MyTransgenderCupid, one of the best sites for Trans women looking to find men to date in London,” she replied. “Come and sit here next to me and I’ll show you how it works.”

I had agreed to meet Lindsay in Starbucks in central London as today was a very special day for me. A cause for some sort of celebration!

As Australia’s most diverse city, Melbourne has a strong gay and Transgender community. The city has a vibrant arts and entertainment scene and attracts people of all sort of ethnicities, sexuality and gender. It is a veritable melting pot of people, with communities originally from the UK, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa and many parts of Asia. These include Hong Kong people, Vietnamese, Thais, Filipinos and Malaysians.

When most people learn I am Transgender, they are generally quite understanding. Whether I am looking to date a new guy or looking to make new female or male friends. The majority of people I meet are happy, but curious, when they know they have finally met a Trans woman. Some people may be a little cautious at first, but are usually respectful. Upon learning that I belong to the T (Transgender) community, part of the LGBTQ acronym.
