Title: What's your sexuality?
Post by: ladytiffielou on February 22, 2018, 01:56:11 AM
I of late have yearned for anyone individual regardless of identity or sexuality. Being transgender and soon transsexual with my identity. I for one am happy for everyone figuring out themselves and want to know your story!!! [emoji85][emoji86][emoji87][emoji137][emoji127][emoji129][emoji130]

           Distinctions are important, it is what allows us to feel 'special'. According to transkids.us website I'm a non-practicing homosexual transexual but I know which came first: the 'egg' is still 'a chicken'. In our popular culture 'sexuality' is over-rated and, while exciting when young & new, is intended primarily for procreation and can otherwise be very debilitating, especially emotionally.

lol Being long-time 'asexual' due pre-op status I, no longer being 'self-serving' either, would advocate against it!

I don't think so. There are a lot of people who can't or don't want SRS. That doesn't make them less trans or less female. SRS doesn't make you female, your heart does.

Androsexual (I'm still not comfortable with calling myself gay); post-transition, however, I could see myself sleeping with women even though I don't feel romantic or aesthetic attraction toward them if that makes any sense. I guess what would be sexually attractive to me in a woman in that case would be her personality, not her looks.

I'm also objectum sexual (http://objectum-sexuality.org/) of the animist variety.

I know but the thing is that I'm only attracted to straight males and I get a lot of crap from people for not being comfortable to date a bi man.
It's just that for me with my trans past it's important that my guy is straight and is repulsed by penis, despite me having one and keeping it because mentally I can't get over the fears of SRS.
So I'm non-op and hoping to find a boyfriend who is straight and makes an exception about the fact that I have a dick. Yeah, I'm delusional, I know :-/

I'm the same way. Before transition I hooked up with gay, bi and confused guys because that's all that was available to me then. But now that I've transitioned I only like straight guys.

I can't hook up with guys who are anything else than straight. My type is the " alpha male " . I'm not into sweet, sensitive boys. I am into fashionable, alpha males who will show me every little corner of the room. Even submissiveness is a turn off for me. When a guy tells me he is submissive I would be so repulsed by it. It's just tied in with my straight identity as a woman : a guy needs to be the dominant one, I am the only submissive girl in the room.
I would even be repulsed by a guy who is all hunky but loves to wear lingerie from time to time.
I'm into traditional men who love to take care of their family and expect me to be traditionally feminine.
In a few years I dream of having a little family, a hubby who takes care of us ( me and the kids ) . It's just so difficult being non-op. I wonder how I will function as a mother with a penis. It kinda repulses me.
Anyway :-P

Post by: Julia1996 on February 22, 2018, 11:00:12 AM
I hadn't thought about a submissive guy before. I guess that would be kind of a turn off for me. Tristan is very dominant in the bedroom, so much so that at first I wasn't sure it was going to work. He would never hurt me or anything but he's very much into BDSM and bondage. I had never experienced anything like that so at first it kind of unnerved me. As for a guy wearing lingere, yeah, that would be a deal breaker for me.

Something ive actually thought alot about

i am sexually attracted to men, but feel more romantically attracted to women, i think as a long term partner i would end up with a woman who accepts that i am not a guy, i am a trans woman and therefor does not want that role of a guy in the relationship, i never have

ive also thought about the idea of dating a fellow trans person, either ftm or mtf, but idk

Straight (a little bi) now. That was actually one of the weirdest things to deal with in transitioning, as presenting as male before I was gay (a little bi), and to have the label on my sexuality shift to the other end of the spectrum like that took some getting used to. But I realize I never really 'fit' as a gay man, I was basically a straight woman pretending to be a gay man... Okay, I think i'm making myself dizzy now...  :D

Lesbian with a minor in homoflexible?

I'm attracted to more or less everything about females ... Well less to some butch energy but butch women imx are so much cooler than males.

Not to be completely down on the guys, I know a handful of well adjusted men who's company I genuinely enjoy and definitely have some attraction to male genitalia.

Since transition I've regained my interest in leathersex and my new lover is a really fun switch femme. Life isn't always easy but it sure is good right now :-)

Well hon, you asked.

1 - My therapist: My therapist told me I am sexually interested in man and romantically in woman.
2 - Legally: I am female and married to a cis-gender female, so legally I am a lesbian.
3 - My current thoughts about man: I am getting more and more curious into being with man, especially after my GRS.
4 - My current thoughts about woman: I am super attracted to woman as they are so glorious and understanding.

I don't want to call myself Bi-sexual, but... hmm.. idk. Lesbian mostly I guess. Definitely a DIY active sexually. Does that count?

I had to look up some of the terms that have been used in this thread. 😃

Men only, so that makes me straight right? I guess that a bi man would be okay, I have in the past though it didn't last but not because of his sexuality. I have never dated a trans man but I think that would be okay. Submissive would not work for me, I am sorry there is nothing wrong with that but I have had it happen.  :icon_confused2: The effect was like he slapped me with one of those fish they feed the penguins at the zoo. Definitely not for me. Because I am slightly taller than the average guy I have had them come in to kiss me like a girl, just eww, instant turn off. So anyone who tries to put me in the dominant or masculine role is definitely out. I didn't like it when I was trying to date women, way back when, and I began to resent them for it, I definitely have no desire for a man to treat me that way. I don't think that I am submissive or I am but I cannot be hit or tied up, not ever. I can't.

I think that I am straight, I definitely am NOT into girls so.

I'm bisexual. I have a lot of fluidity in who I'm attracted to, some days it's men and some days it's women. Right now I'm kinda partial to dudes, but that's always subject to change. I'm also super into people who are non-binary, and those with androgynous gender presentations. I'd call myself pan, but I'm not having that printer cartridge pride flag [emoji13]

After years of observation and consideration of such things, I've come to decide that the usual labels of "straight", "gay" or "bisexual" are inadequate to describe sexuality. Consider, for instance, the "straight" male who finds himself attracted to an attractive transgender person who happens to have a penis. Does this mean he is in fact "bi". No. He is attracted to femininity, just as he always has been. The bodily plumbing matters are basically details to be worked out.

I believe people are usually attracted more to masculinity or femininity, though sometimes to both equally. Of course, to have a physical relationship with someone is another matter, and there are many possibilities there. I am pretty entirely attracted to femininity and detracted from masculinity, though the actual details of bodily gender differences are not that big a deal for me. I love breasts and vaginas, but I can appreciate the penis as well.

Sexuality is something that I really struggle with, more so after coming out as trans
I've identified as bisexual since circa age 13 and have always been more attracted to women. Now within the last year as I've been socially and physically I've been wondering if I identify as a straight man.
I'm also trying to figure out if I fall somewhere on the asexual spectrum.

Actually I think that's really cute, and you have a great sense of humor!  I think a fair amount of people on this forum might have the same feelings and outlook.

I feel like im Ace Bisexual tho
.

I can agree with this i find myself contemplating the depths of my sexuality and things i have tried and have not tried.
For instance:
I feel demisexual because ive never had casual sex nor do i find it attractive its that bond between
Two souls that really ignites my flame.
I feel pansexual because of that connection with the soul and how the body is but a shell and can
reflect the person inside with effort.
I feel bisexual because i love someone for them initially whether male or female though ive never been
with a man because of my romantic spiritual connection any woman ive been with had they
Just woke up one day as male id still love and please them in any way so . . . yeah
Your mind and soul determine who you are no matter what.
So it is hard to label sexuality unless youre very specific and know exactly what you want.

I guess im a Spirisexual xD

Lesbian, unfortunately.  I'm exclusively attracted to other feminine, "gender-conforming" women.  Transfused, I can definitely empathize with you not being comfortable with bi men, as I'm not comfortable with bi women.  I'd have far too much insecurity and fear that I'm not being perceived correctly.  So anyone I'd ever want to be with at this point would have to be lesbian, just as feminine, and perfectly comfortable with my genitalia (as I'm non-op).  Yeah, pretty microscopic pool there.   :-\

I've noticed something. I've recently moved toward almost 100% fantasizing about being a woman having sex with men. But, when I get "close", I find myself thinking of women right before, to get me over the edge. What does this mean? I mean, the thought of men and me as a woman turns me on, so this is "perplexing".

I am straight in the acts but with strong bi tendencies in reality.
I had lesbian experiences when a child, then had attractions for some specific women, without "practicing it".
More than 80% of my erotic dreams and fantasies for masturbation sessions  :P are with women and me having a penis...
I am not comfortable with the idea of being with a woman if I have to be fully female myself. I have to be male with them and when I'm around women attracted to me, I feel naturally male which I love.

Yes Ladytiffielou, such a wide and diverse variation which is good.

Maybe next time someone puts up this subject in a thread, it could be headed by a "Poll" but if so, the polling period would have to be at least 2 weeks. Just a thought for the future.

Thank you for initiating such an interesting discussion.

I know I've responded here before. But, sometimes, I just want someone to hold me and kiss me like I'm a girl. I just feel like one inside and sexually. If that makes sense.

After years of observation and consideration of such things, I've come to decide that the usual labels of "straight", "gay" or "bisexual" are inadequate to describe sexuality. Consider, for instance, the "straight" male who finds himself attracted to an attractive transgender person who happens to have a penis. Does this mean he is in fact "bi". No. He is attracted to femininity, just as he always has been. The bodily plumbing matters are basically details to be worked out.

I believe people are usually attracted more to masculinity or femininity, though sometimes to both equally. Of course, to have a physical relationship with someone is another matter, and there are many possibilities there. I am pretty entirely attracted to femininity and detracted from masculinity, though the actual details of bodily gender differences are not that big a deal for me. I love breasts and vaginas, but I can appreciate the penis as well.

This describes me exactly. I never knew really how to put it into words so Thank you. lol

Hugs,

Very fluid I am attracted more to the person some males I find attractive some females I find attractive. But mostly I'm attracted to guys.

I think I have a not-too-uncommon trans condition, which is that I'm male-to-something, primarily attracted to men, but knowing underneath that I also want to be with women. At the moment, I see women as people to aim to be like, people I want to be friends with. But I know that there's something there. I just can't bear the thought of waking up next to a woman and the contrast between our bodies. If anyone's seen "herstory", I guess I'm a bit like Vi in this respect (and as an example, Jen Richards is both a transition goal and a girl crush).

I wan't sure at first, but I think I'm leaning toward being just a plain vanilla straight woman.

I'm finding I have a physical attraction to guys but as far as a romantic one, I'm not sure. Back when I was basically pretending to be a guy, I had plenty of opportunities to see males at their worst. How to reconcile that in relation to some kind of amorous relationship, well I haven't quite worked that out yet.

I guess I never really was all that physically attracted to women, in spite of the fact that I was married to one.

Anyhow. I like men. Right now I have my eye on one of my roommates.. if he doesn't already have a gf. There's a bit of a cultural barrier because he's Chinese so I'm not sure if it could work long term.. I wonder what he thinks about me

Sexuality?  I'm a 64 year old woman, strongly attracted to femme presentations, so that would make me a lesbian, a female homosexual.

In practice not all persons with femme presentation necessarily self-identify as women, even though I find them attractive, which would make my attraction to them technically queer.

So, my sexuality would be lesbian/queer.    ;D.

I'm pansexual, I love who I love. Masc' or femme, It's someone's mind that really does it for me. Confidence and independence are two very attractive traits.

I am only attracted to women, so I guess a lesbian. However,  I suppose I wouldn't mind bedding a pretty boy, or maybe not. I don't know, when I think of a pretty boy my mind shows me an image of an attractive male anime character, such as Sebastian from black butler. Those standards are pretty high, so I guess only women then.

Hey Pamela, mind if I use your name in short for the poll idea?

By all means Ladytiffielou, of course you can.

Obviously most will know and this thread proves that Physical/Romantic Attraction and Sexuality are not necessarily intertwined and some are attracted by personality or character or other traits. However this your thread is headed "Sexuality" and therefore I think any Poll should also refer to sexuality to maintain consistency. I would suggest 7 categories but you may prefer fewer or more:

Straight:       attracted to opposite sex to that to which you assign (internally whether transitioned or not)
Gay/Lesbian: attracted to same sex to that to which you assign (internally whether transitioned or not)
Bisexual:       may be attracted to either sex
Asexual:        have no sexual interest at this time
Queer
Pansexual
Other

Hope this helps if you decide on a poll.

May I thank you for initiating such an interesting thread and a stimulating debate.

Pamela

It's really problematic for me. I'm in a relationship with a woman, but I hadn't had sex with her since two years now? Something like that. I hate my body so I can't even think about any kind of intimacy before my transition (and I haven't even started taking testosterone yet). But I always liked guys. I ended up in a relationship with a woman because I couldn't imagine myself in a relationship with a guy in the situation when I'm still in female body. Does that even make any sense? But now I'm pretty sure that I'm attracted to guys, but I don't know if I want to have a sexual relationship even after the transition.

Well, because I'm bigender I don't even know if the conventual sexualities are necessarily applicable. 

I am always attracted to women no matter what gender I currently am experiencing.  I love women as a maleish person and also when I am a woman.  The same goes for nonbinary people.
With men it's a bit more complicated; I'm infrequently attratcted to men in woman mode (but it does happen), but when I'm in male mode it gets strange.  I know my attraction to men is absolutely not heterosexual, but I can't exactly call myself gay because I never identify as a gay man.  So, formulating a single word for that attraction hits a roadblock.

I'm bi.

But I took a good while figuring that out. In the past life I was straight.
So after I came out, it made sense to call myself gay. I had no interest in women.

Being on T changed most of my way of looking at the world including women.
I'm mostly into women now and still interested in men - in a purely theoretical way - the thought of being with a man "again" after the delusion I went through, makes me uncomfortable.

After more than 5 years on HRT, I started out very much as Lesbian, although when I transitioned before i was living in a Polyl relationship with a bi-sexual older couple, so I was probably bi-sexual.

These days after 5 years on HRT and interestingly since having Micronised Progesterone added to my treatment regime I am now what I consider to be mixed, as I am sexually interested in relationship with a dominant man, where I fulfil  the role of a submissive partner, but I am much more romantically into relationships with women, either CIS or Transwomen.

However with women, I like them to be soft butch (cis women where I am the submissive one in the relationship), or other femme transwomen.

Technically straight as I still have a male body etc but as a female I'd be lesbian, I don't really know if I can truly classify what I am because of being TG it's a confusing crossroads.

I've been in a long term (15 years!) relationship with a big bruiser of a man.  But I can be attracted to about any type of person.  I have had crushes on butch lebians, gay men, straight women, straight men,  FtM, MtF, you name it.   To me, vaginas and penises are both not so great looking anyhow, and are only so much flesh.  The person, I suppose is more important than genitalia.  So I guess I am pansexual when it comes down to it.

My sexuality is purely theoretical.


A part of me feels that way too. I have a theoretical sexuality since I definitely not having sex with anyone. I have romantic interest in women. But my sexual fantasies are always about men as of late.

Good question! I'm feminine, attracted to women and like being submissive.

Sex and relationships is the main area I've received counselling for over the years and ultimately is what lead to my acceptance of being a trans woman. Since accepting who I am, being more feminine and starting HRT I have also started to have fantasies about guys with me as a woman. It's extremely rare for me to be attracted to a guy but it does happen now.

It's all a bit complicated, isn't it? Although I want sex until I've had surgery I would rather cuddle and kiss, the disconnect between how I appear and behave is huge. Hoping HRT will fix that; my psychologist doesn't get why I'm in a rush ;D

I'm not a "hunter" and have never propositioned anyone.  I've tried sex with women who made the first move, but I couldn't keep an erection, and they seemed to take it personally.  I enjoyed trying to pleasure them orally, though.  I've never socialised with gay guys and I used to be afraid of most males because I was beaten up so much in school. 

After realising that sex with women was a waste of time for me, my fantasies were all about passive sex with men but I've never been approached by a man in that way.

Bisexual, though in actual practice I've only ever dated women. The main problem is that I have no interest in being with men while presenting male myself... I'd want to with a guy who treats me like a woman in every way, as well as having the proper equipment for heterosexual interfacing.  ;)

Of course I'm married to the most wonderful woman I ever met, so as long as she still wants me, I'm strictly a hersexual.  :D

I thought bisexual but nope. I am only attracted to Women so I guess I am a lesbian. On a side note I have never been in a relationship or have done the sexy time so I guess its just speculation. However there is no room for experimentation  because I only plan on dating someone I know that I will be with for the rest of my life.

i am sexually attracted to men, but feel more romantically attracted to women, i think as a long term partner i would end up with a woman who accepts that i am not a guy, i am a trans woman and therefor does not want that role of a guy in the relationship, i never have

I'm the same. I love being with women romantically, but I have no interest in them sexually.

I'm Bi.  But I'm not interested in starting any relationships till I get my life sorted out, and sex is a very low priority, especially since blockers have reduced my sex drive.  So yeah, Bi, but not that it matters in my case.
