Orientation realization?

[PrincessKnight]

So for about a year now, I've considered myself gay, because I like guys but don't really want to have sex with a girls. But now I'm not so sure...

See, I'm usually not all that interested in sex with a girl. When watching videos or looking at pictures, it's easy to imagine myself as the girl who's with the guy- I never want to be the guy. But if there is no guy, just two girls, that's actually rather appealing. If I had a female body, I don't think I'd have a real problem being with a girl. So I guess I'm more bi than gay.

Has anyone else had thoughts like this? Like, I don't like girls- oh wait, yes I do, just not in this body?

Yes, I've had thoughts like that. I've also noticed that my interest in girls has increased.

Ya... except the opposite.  It's like for me, until I transition further, I don't wanna be with a guy just yet... but I certainly don't wanna be with a girl either.  I see myself having a relationship with a guy, not a girl... but I'd have sex with a girl until SRS.  But then that's a contradiction in itself because I don't believe in one night stands or friends-with-benefits.  All in all, for the time being, it's complicated.

I'd like to theorize that when you start seriously considering something as life changing as transition that you naturally kind of shift your thoughts (with or without noticing), which causes a reevaluation of your preferences in partners. It's not a simple or obvious switch but it's more like your mind is given an opportunity to consider things from a new current and potential future prospective.

Maybe it's as simple as how you view yourself kind of changing, you now viewing your relationships more (or almost entirely) through a real or imagined female "frame"

Nope, I know exactly what I like and it doesn't matter what gender I'm presenting as. Heteroflexibility ftw.
