Birmingham and the West Midlands
Trans Dating Birmingham: Trans Singles and Admirers Near You
Members from the city centre out to Coventry, Wolverhampton, Dudley and Walsall.
Trans dating in Birmingham reaches well beyond the city centre. More than 350 My Transgender Secret members live across the West Midlands, most of them men, and about one in ten picked the CD/TRANS option for trans and crossdressing people when they signed up. If you want to meet trans women in Birmingham, there is a real choice on your side of the motorway.
Spread out, but never far away
The region is big, and members are scattered through it rather than packed into one postcode. That works in your favour. Someone in Wolverhampton can chat with someone in Coventry for a week, then meet in the middle without either of them crossing the country.
VIP search filters let you find your own sweet spot by city and distance. Set it tight for a weeknight drink, then open it up at the weekend when a trip into town feels easy.
Hurst Street, where the evening starts
Birmingham's Gay Village sits around Hurst Street in Southside, right beside the Chinese Quarter, so dinner and a drink are a short stroll apart. The Nightingale Club, a long-running fixture of the Village, is there if the date goes well and you both fancy dancing.
Birmingham Pride usually falls on the late May bank holiday weekend. It is a joyful couple of days, and a lot more fun with someone you have already met.
A crowd with a few years behind it
The West Midlands leans older than any other city we cover. More than a third of members here are 55 or over, and more than one in five are 65 or older, a bigger share than in London or Manchester. The largest single group is still 35 to 44, at just over a quarter.
On the trans side the picture is more mixed: a little under half of the trans and crossdressing members are under 35. Set your age range on your profile and your daily matches will follow it.

Somewhere easy for that first hello
Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery has reopened and general admission costs nothing. A slow lap of the galleries gives you plenty to talk about, and the city centre is full of places for a coffee afterwards. Daylight, other people and an easy way out: the three things every first meeting should have.
If one of you is coming in from Coventry or Wolverhampton, pick a spot near a station so the journey home is simple. More ideas are in our guide to trans first dates.
People on your side in the Village
Birmingham LGBT runs its centre at 151 Hurst Street, in the Village itself, with dedicated trans support workers.
On My Transgender Secret your real name is never shown, your location stays at the level of your nearest town, and you can block anyone instantly. Before you meet, check for a blue tick: it comes with a free ID check, and a moderator's live video check is there for anyone who prefers not to share a document.
