While her acclimation to the trans community has been successful thus far, Caitlyn Jenner is still unsure about the challenge of dating as a transgender woman. 

In a preview for tonight's episode of I Am Cait, the former Olympian shares her concerns during a candid conversation with her assistant Courtney Nanson's boyfriend Johnie—asking for a man's perspective on the topic. 

"I believe that's something that should be up front, otherwise it's sort of deceptive," he explains, but then asks, "Like, how soon into the relationship does that come up? I believe that's something that should be up front, otherwise it's sort of deceptive."

Somewhat surprised by her beau's response, Nanson presses for more details. "If I told you right now that I was [transgender], would it change us?" she questions. "And would you continue?"

"Yeah," he answers. "But then we could choose to continue to be friends."

The discussion proves to be eye-opening. "You would have to be honest right from the beginning," Jenner concedes. "Honestly, in the heterosexual dating world, it is nothing
compared to what it is for people in the trans community."

Catch I Am Cait on E! Sundays at 8 p.m. EST.
