Hey one and all!
This was kinda triggered by another post but has anyone's attraction changed since going to the other side.
Pre-transition: I liked guys and ONLY guys. Always around my age. No questions
Early transition 2-3months: Guys around my age. No questions
Early to mid transition (4 months - 2 years): Guys my age. No questions
Now, 2.5 years: its like my eyes have opened up to girls, I honestly never noticed them before in this way. And i kinda like guys BUT not always. Its a little hit and miss, so some-days I'm cool with it and other days I'm not.
I also now have a thing for older people, I'm talking 40-70's (yes older than my mother) and I never had that before! My habits on naughty websites have changed a fair bit as well.
It's not a peer influence, nor is it an exploration. This has all literally changed over night, I'm not taking T but my hormones have been naturally going toward the male side for whatever reason. I also feel very romantically immature as if I'm about 13/14 and not the 18 years I actually am.
Has this happened to anyone else?

I'm still pretty young, but if you're saying that you're 18, I think it could be related to that. During adolescence, all the hormones and all that stuff changes, and so do other things. With time your preferences can change, and I think puberty is a real big part of that. Of course I'm no expert, at all, but I'm just thinking it has something to do with puberty, and that's ok. Good luck man.

Attractions for people can easily change even without being trans. I know when I was much younger I was ONLY attracted to girls, like cis-women or post-op trans women exclusively. As I got older (and I eventually met my wife), I found my attractions changing to accommodate more varying types of people. At almost 23, my attractions aren't remotely the same as they were when I was 18.

When I was starting middle school, I was into guys and only guys, and was somewhat of a homophobe. (Though, I would see a woman and think 'Dang, she's hot.' Or catch myself starting at her chest and scold myself. "You're not GAY!" Funny thing is, I'm still not.)
I was "bisexual" up until about 10th or 11th grade. First, it was a lean to guys, then a lean to females. It changed from time to time. I have some of the most fluid sexuality of anyone else I know.'
By the end of 10th grade, I was "butch lesbian." Not man-hating, just never really attracted to them. And if I was, it was only for their looks. I rarely felt a strong emotional connection like I did with females.
A year ago this month (April 2014), I came out as trans*. Now, I only date women. Cis and trans* (post- and pre-op). I feel too dysphoric and self conscious to sleep with anyone, let alone anything that meant penetration on me. I don't find men's private parts attractive in any way (unless it would be my own). I tell all my friends that "I want a dick on me, not in me." I'm definitely heteroromantic. I only really get emotionally into it with girls. Bisexual? Maybe. I see a guy and think "He's hot," but rarely do I want to take it further than a short stare.
I do believe that my coming out has helped me on my journey of only liking women. I don't want to be a gay man. I don't like butt stuff or other men's junk. I don't feel like a gay man. I'm a straight man. A ladies' man. Ya know?
