An unexpected thing has happened to me. I've become boy obsessed. I think I said back in January that I was 70-30 bisexual favoring women. Well I'd say it's now more like 50-50, but I spend more time thinking about men.

Maybe that's because this intensity of boy crushing is new for me, so there's a novelty effect. Or maybe I'm halfway to becoming straight. Who knows. Everything is changing quickly. I'll call it bi/queer for now and see what happens.

I know this sounds outlandish but it turns out to be pretty common for trans people's sexuality to shift when they transition. There are Kinsey-6 "lesbians" who become gay men post trans, and every other possible permutation.

If I were to speculate about why I'd say that sexual orientation probably shouldn't be understood only in terms of who it's "toward" but also where it's "from." I.e. your orientation isn't just disembodied contextless attraction but also involves your own conception of self.

Transitioning really alters your conception of your self and your body, and sexual orientation can be dramatically affected by those changes. There's also no doubt a hormone effect. But I'm just making this up, I don't really know. Anyway hiii boys.

My fiancée was a gay man when we met. She started transitioning soon after we first became friends and about a year and a half into our friendship we realised we had fallen in love. While I’m non-binary, I present as female (just easier). TLDR: she’s definitely a lesbian now.

The first trans person I met (that I know of) was AMaB and only attracted to men prior to transition. For a while after, she was still attracted to men but within 5 years she was attracted to women only. 20 years later still is to my knowledge.

If you say you like girls my whole world makes sense. (Yes I’ve been drinking. Why do you ask?)

So true, as I've become more masculine (f to fuckknowssomefuzzyplacebetweenmidandmale) I've definitely gone from being into allsorts to being all about femmes of any gender. Glad to see it's common. X

IME, lesbians were more likely to accept me as masculine (ie butch) while men just saw me as a woman pre-transition. Looking back, I was never really into girls, I just confused plantonic feels for romantic ones. A lot of trans guy friends have said similar.

...Also I was intimidated by dongs until I was about 22 years old, so. That played a part
