Dating..the other Privilege

There are lots and lots of discussions around Blogdonia discussion various privileges that cis (non-trans) people have. Things that are so often taken for granted like having all of one's documentation match, being able to travel without being flagged as a potential terrorist, being able to get timely medical care (Tyra Hunter).. and on and on.. All very important issues. Critical issues in every case.

However, one thing that gets overlooked is forming relationships. Cis folks have the luxury of forming organic relationships. They can meet someone at work or a party, hit it off, exchange numbers and go out. This is becomming so painfully clear to me because I'm single
