If it is an attractive factor despite appearance, personality etc, then it is a bit creepy IMO.

Hmm true, I am not disgusted with people who are trans however. Just my personal beliefs basically are that "I would not sleep with them", and I tend to hold to my viewpoints pretty tightly, even though I see nothing wrong with the action or with TGs.
I am neither turned on nor off by them, depending on how they look, some are much more "noticable" than others, and I admit I find that a bit of a turn off. The indistinguishable or near so, I am indifferent.
I was using "Life Style" to talk about people who are lesbians and gays. I am fine with people who choose to have what most consider to be an "alternative" life style I suppose, just as a showing that their "former" gender or whatever doesn't really have much of an impact on my decision. Just using it as an example to show how I can be accepting of things, yet choose not to do them or indulge myself in them.
If the TG'd person is happy, I feel happy for them and hope they live a long fulfilling life, but it does not necessarily mean that I personally will sleep with them just because they are a woman. Heck I won't sleep with women for many reasons, being TG'd isn't even close to the "worst", and like I said, I can find TG women plenty attractive. I admit I don't travel in those circles much, so it's hard to say exactly how I would respond to an "intimate relationship over a long period of time", but these are my views as of right now until I had more interaction with more than my grand total of 1 TG'd friend, since my personal viewpoint might change if I got into an actual relationship with one I found attractive.
