Gay is gay. Trannies is trannies. They are different type of people. really? i've always thought that trannies are gay too, like trannies is a sub-group of gays How to explain? Basically, trannies are guys that are trying to be ladies physically because they deemed themselves having a mentality of a women. Gay is gay, they are attracting to the same sex. It is only people tend to categorise which one is the "man" and which one is the "women" in a gay relationship due to the narrowness of definition available in society. when i talked about trannies i'm about their original sex. like a male become a female through surgery is still a male, so even tho it appears to be a woman and have sex with men. It's still gay since the tranny's original sex is male. that's how i c it.
