False/fake source or not it's sad to imagine someone who really identified as the opposite sex, got rejected all his/her life, got this surgery, and still ended up alone.
But then again there can be trans people who date other trans people, with the dating pool overlapping with a small group of cis people. Homosexuals have a smaller dating pool as well, so it's nothing new really. There's also the problem of fertility. Most cis-heterosexuals want to be able to have babies, which automatically pushes this part of them away. But yes indeed, it is sad.
My point originally was that most men aren't probably being repelled by the penises, but by the infertility or the lack of sufficient femininity even post-surgery. I've seen some trans women who are really attractive. It involves as much luck as being an attractive cis, as in if you're an already effeminate biological male chances are the reassignment is gonna be "more successful" for the lack of a better term. Also trans men are usually more masculine overall and virtually indistinguishable from cis men, but the genitalia are difficiult to surgically reassign. We live in an imperfect world.

Yes, it's indeed sad. But it's really no different from persons who stay forever alone because they are just really fucking ugly - you can bitch and moan all you want, there's no way to force others to find you attractive.
Indeed, but i wouldnt be that harsh about it. Maybe the future will let us engineer our faces if were not happy with them. Not in a contemporary plastic surgery fashion... but like genetic engineering or so. But yeah, this is an example of dating being the most acceptable type of discrimination.
