What is your sexual orientation/preference and has it always been that way?

I identify as a pansexual with a stronger attraction to females.  I am attracted to transmen as well.  I don't find myself that attracted to cismales because of my dysphoria.  My dysphoria would attack me like blood in shark-infested water.

I thought I was bisexual for the longest time, then thought/tried to convince myself I was strictly into girls (even though I constantly had crushes on other guys), and have only in the past year finally admitted/accepted that I'm completely gay.

Its weird.

I'm pansexual and always have been although my preference is very fluid so at the moment I prefer men but that will probably change.

It settled down, 2 years later and I still prefer men  :P

Pansexual.

Never been able to be attracted to a gender. Realizing i was trans hasn't changed that.

Though I've realized I don't want to date a girl if i can't have sex with her as a man - so small change

I've always been attracted to males. I will occasionally be attracted to females, but I ever don't see myself dating a female.

Always changing but I've always been more into masculine cismale's... but I'm attracted to any type of guy really if I find them hot.
It sounds shallow but I only really notice the stereotypically pretty girls, like thin, blonde, feminine, but I find it difficult to feel attracted to girls.

I'd say I'm Pansexual. I just like folks for who they are & whatever they've got under their clothes is fine with me :)

My first couple  'fool-around' sessions when I was younger were with girls, then I dated guys for a while, then both guys & girls.

Overall, I'm most attracted to other FTMs & athletic-bodied women.

And strap-ons :)

I'm pansexual.  I don't really have a preference for any gender.

And....yeah, that's not true for me anymore.  I've realized that I've always been gay, but I never really understood that at the time.  Liked boys as a young kid, occasionally thought about girls (but only as a male--meaning, I pictured myself as a male when I thought about girls).  Thought I had a couple crushes on girls in middle/high school, but I think I was mostly lonely; it was the ones who showed me the most kindness that I liked.

Dated a girl in high school/junior college.  We had all kinds of problems, but a big one was my lack of real attraction to her.  I thought she was pretty and a nice person, but I just wasn't sexually interested in her (although we had a lot of sex unfortunately).  Attempted to date her again when I went to uni (lonely again).  Didn't work out because I still identified as gay inside; called myself pansexual instead.

Now I've realized that I'm just gay.  I have problems with that, but I'm trying to work through them.  Internalized homophobia is a bad thing :(

For me, well...it's a little complicated xD

I thought I was straight, dated some guys, got scared.
At the age of 18, I started dating girls, dated three of them. Thought I was a lesbian, but I never wanted to do more than just hang out with them, and I only held their hands, and never even kissed one, I was too scared.
When I came out as trans, I tried dating a guy, he was bi. But I hated it because he said it accepted me as trans, and then he kept treating me as a girl, so I broke it off.
I went back to dating girls, but didn't actually date another until a week ago. It was a weird 4 long day thing, she came from another state to see me. By day 3, she was holding my hand, and I felt...nothing.  I realized, I have a lot of crushes on other men, so it seems more appropriate to say that I'm gay. So...now I identify as gay instead.

I always thought I was supposed to like guys and be a straight girl, so therefore I did. However, I developed my first crush on a girl at the age of 6, then a few more at 8, then steadily had crushes on girls throughout... though I dated guys. I think I moreso was attracted to male bodies, because I wanted those bodies, and not because I necessarily wanted to be with one. I never imagined having sex with men, and the thought of it made me sick. I thought I could be lesbian for a long time, but that didn't seem to fit. I wasn't homophobic, so I had no idea why the term "lesbian" bothered me so much.

I'm straight. I could probably date a male if his personality meshed well with mine, but then again, I'm really not sure. I have been in a relationship for 5 years though with a beautiful woman so I doubt that I will ever be in a relationship with a male.

I've always been attracted to females even before I came out as trans. Since starting T there is one guy I know that turns my head but for the most part I'm still highly attracted to females. I just love their curves.

I would define myself bisexual or queer, and I guess I have been that my whole life since I came out to my mom when I where a kid. 5-9 years old.

as a kid I had boyfriends, but I played around alittle with both boys and girls,
as 8 year old I dated a guy, and had guy chrushes.. and so on..

as 12 I convensed myself that I was straight and only like girls, and if I had to like guys then he should be very femenine, however then I felt in love with the most maculine guy in my class, who turned out to be the first girls I liked boyfriend.. (ups)
had another crush on another guy and after that I accepted that I liked guys, and for a short time thought I was gay untill I had a new female crush.. later on a male crush and then a female and so on so on so on....

lets just make it so simple that today I dont really care whatever its male or female,
all I know is I tend to be way more picky in girls and like girls and boys in diffrent ways..
I tend to like girls more in personalety sort of fall in love way, and guys are more as a attraction as I want to bang them, mostly..

I've liked females my entire life and now I'm dating a man. I find myself attracted to him mentally and physically but not other men, it's weird; I haven't tried putting any labels on my sexual orientation since starting my relationship with him.

My attraction fluctuates from women to men to whatever. I just really don't care what's between another person's legs so long as we get along and they're fine with my poly preferences.

Before transition I was into men exclusively.

During transition I went from being attracted to neither sex to being attracted to men, bio or trans.

I have always liked girls. I remember trying very hard in high school to try and figure out what people saw in men and I just didn't get it.
Its odd because I want to be exactly like them but I can't see why anyone would find them attractive.
I just see hairy rectangles lol what do people find attractive about them?
