Got deep into a research hole today after discussing med changes with my doc and let me tell you the state of research on GRT/GAHT/hormones and impact on a wide range of factors for trans people is...

would love to do more research to help with this except the radical trans people keep deliberately sabotaging my ability to do so so ???

despite their best efforts i seem to have some data on how taking estrogen affects sexual preferences now, tho

Can you DM me what you have on this or point me to what you found? Super curious...
I've been reading research papers on how/whether E and T affect sexual preferences for like the last three days because I've been wondering about this

There's anecdotal reports of hormonal birth control affecting levels of same-sex interest for bi (genetic) women explicitly and _some_ supporting research but a ton of studies also show no impact on pref across all populations and it's hard to sort out noise

on phone now but it was looking like yes, changes trans women to prefer being more submissive, more nonconsent scenarios. More stuff across the board, too!
this is interesting--useful things to examine from self-reported changes are like:
- variation on type of method (andro suppressor? / gonadectomy? / estro delivery method?)
- length of time on hormones
- original preferences and change across time
basically no one has data

I asked how long on hormones, but not hormone method or base rates of fetishes.

I now want to combine this with my belief system about how sexual preferences have a strongly causal relationship with preferred learning styles
