But once I started HRT and could imagine a female future, it opened the door for my sexuality, like you said.Īnd my sexuality apparently has a "No boys allowed" sign. It was like my past self couldn't really imagine being sexual with ANYONE because of my male hormones and body, so boy or girl didn't matter. My attraction to women became WAY stronger and explicitly sexual in nature, while my ability to imagine myself with a man basically vanished.

This would have been super inconvinent because I'm married and like my wife quite a bit, even if I'd never really been sexually attracted to her because asexual. When a lesbian, gay, bi or trans persons sexual orientation or gender. So when I started HRT I was worried, based on stories that I'd read, that I might end up becoming straight - interested in dudes only. who have a fluid sexual and/or romantic orientation which changes over time. I've had an experience that was.pretty similar but in an opposite direction? I'd always considered myself asexual, but somewhat biromantic - I could see myself being with a dude, as long as it was the right dude. I still feel like I wouldn’t say one or the other, but it’s like opening the door to accepting myself as trans has led me to start accepting myself in other ways which I’ve yet to fully stabilise and figure out for sure.īut I just wondered whether other people have also experienced this? I always assumed if I went the route of exploring my gender identity that I’d continue to be attracted to women predominantly, but now I’m not sure and yeah.I just wondered if this is sorta normal or ok. Over the past few months of worldwide lockdown I’ve thought a lot about my gender identity and have gotten to a good point where I’ve actually accepted it and am working on moving forward to live the life I want to have and present how I feel inside.īut since accepting that I’m trans, and want to live more so as female, I feel like my sexual orientation has kind of come along also, I think I’ve always been somewhere which wasn’t quite straight but since accepting that I am a trans woman the feelings and thoughts I have toward men have really escalated and those for cis women have really scaled back, dramatically.
