I went on a first date with someone extremely attractive. Put "moderate" on her profile, didn't seem too bad. With no prompting from me whatsoever she brings up trans people and asks what I think. I say something along the lines of well I get it because as a guy if someone said I was biologically a girl I'd still be a guy inside. She said she wants kids and if the kids are trans she'd beat it out of them.
I mean she was hot enough that I had the thought that maybe I could change her. But I had to say no to a second date because there's no way I could date someone who one date in is already negotiating how she's going to beat my future kids for being themselves.
parents beating kids is a major red flag. means that they have some pretty unsavory beliefs like believing children are property in addition to being okay with violence. also means they don't have appropriate conflict resolution and communication skills.
you dodged a bullet, they are some of the worst people humanity has to offer, hands down. coming from someone who had one of those parents. my sibling was beaten for questioning their sexuality.
I hope you told her why?
