Where is This Stuff Coming From

I've been reading posts and I wanted to put my two cents in
I sort of woke up a few weeks ago and realized that as "Neil" I'm most certainly "Het"
But Shelley is bi and proud of it. I'm confused, but not in a bad way.

We are who we are. The entire time I presented as male I thought I was hetro. Garbage that. Social conditioning as near as I can tell. Now as near as I can tell I am and have been bi and now just no longer suppressed...

I think (emphasis on that) that a lot of where 'it' (the new and contradictory feelings/thoughts/etc.) all comes from is it is who we are, deep down.  There is a lot of being honest involved in transition, and a lot of throwing away what we thought, and what we were taught to think.

Transition is an interesting process to be sure.

My sexuality has been on a sliding scale lately.

I have finally come to terms that I am more attracted to individuals rather than to someone's gender.  With that said, I am usually attracted to women but I think that is because many of the women around me have been very supportive.

As a male I used to be overly attracked to females and seemingly always (Should I say it . Ya)horny.
Now could care less. I love my wife but not intrested in anyone (what ever gender) else. And sexy can take it or leave it. I'm happier and more secure in who i am.
