Even though i will hav the occasional man crush i consider myself straight. Usually the crushes are on feminine guys such as adam lambert or the typical emo guy. i would never want to date a guy i just am comfortable enough in my sexuality to be like "that guy is kinda cute" i love the female body and the mind of a female and find them better dating material, which is just my opinion. before coming out as transgender when i identified as female i did date men and it absolutely was not for me. which in turn i became a lesbian and dated girls....then figured out the whole trans thing and havent dated a guy since. but just wondering what everybody elses sexual orientation/preference is and if it was different pre transition or if it stayed the same.
I always dated men, and married a man, even though I didn't ID as F (didn't know that trans was my issue then).
Came out as trans, still liked men, but went through periods of thinking women and boobs were hot, tried dating a few, but didn't do much for me. Last several months seriously thinking about things, trying on dating roles in an online role-playing game, and coming to the conclusion that yeah, I like men, I mean I love men, so yeah, I guess that makes me gay.

I like to think of myself as "non-discriminatory". ^_^
At this point i'm not even really considering relationships until i get myself "straightened out" (so to speak.) I guess my "orientation" will establish itself once i'm more comfortable with myself, my looks, and where i am in my transition.
((though i admit to admiring the male body and all that comes with it more than what any straight guy would consider appropriate lmao))
I like women, yes, always have. When I was 12 and started to question if I was a lesbian or not, I realized that I wasn't exactly a lesbian if I wanted to be a man and wanted to be with a woman as a man. And I've always tried to look at it that way. As a 'woman', I just couldn't see myself with dudes and I had a hard time seeing myself with women and being comfortable with my body. Although sometimes I wish I could just be a lesbian, I'm just not a woman. But since I've always looked at it from a perspective of me being a man, I think I had an easier time coming to terms with my sexuality, even if I had no clue there were other people like me out there.
I like women, that's all there is to it. It feels right and I'm content with that.
I like women and always have. When I was about 15 and starting to realize that I liked girls I said I was gay (lesbian, but never liked or identified with that word) but that was before I ever realized that I was trans. But I am a straight man and pretty much always have been. Have never dated a guy and do not have any interest in men intimately or sexually.
I'm bisexual, but I've always been predominantly straight. When I was a girl, I mostly liked only guys, and only dated them. When I started coming out as trans, my attractions started shifting: I haven't had a significant crush on a guy since coming out, and I've only been with girls.
Always dated women.

I anticipate/fear myself getting more gay with transition. But my history of sexual preferences is fairly bisexual.
Label
Under 14: Straight Female
14-16: Bisexual Female
17-18 Gay Female
19-21 Straight Male
22+ Bisexual Male
I consider myself to be pansexual but with a preference for guys, personally. But it just always felt too wrong to think about being with a guy as a girl. So I dated girls to avoid being seen as straight. Since coming out as trans though, I'm more comfortable being the gay guy that I've always been. And my boyfriend definitely helps with that. :P
Started out with my first crush in Jr. High on a girl. This blew my mind because I was a Christian and thought people chose their orientation at that time of my limited life. I avoided analyzing that crush despite the fact that it consumed my thoughts. I was "involved" with older men for a few years before I was ever with a woman in my teen years. Been in a relationship or two with guys but I've always been attracted to women. My first relationship with a woman wasn't until I was about 24. I haven't been in a relationship with a guy since then. I thought the only option for my identity was that I was gay, I have NEVER been comfortable identifying as a lesbian. Being called or identifying as a lesbian felt gay to me.
Just recently realizing I'm trans has been somewhat of a weight off my shoulders because I identify for the first time. I consider myself a straight guy, but I have been known to be attracted to a few gay guys. I'm in an amazing relationship with a woman who is the best thing that's ever happened to me. She's more understanding of the FTM business than I am, she's truly a blessing.
I'm just queer. Never thought that ideas like "straight," "gay" and "bi" made much sense - I like who I happen to like at the moment, and their gender is whatever their gender happens to be. I don't bother investing in a sexual orientation identity beyond that.
I'm pansexual. I don't really have a preference for any gender. I used to though. Copying Nick Aiden:
Under 14: Straight (bi-curious) Female
14: Bisexual Female
15: Lesbian Female then Bisexual Male
16-17: Bisexual (gay-leaning) Male
18: Straight Female*
19+: Bisexual/Pansexual Male
*I converted to another religion and was taught that being GLBT was a choice. Although I had friends and was "accepted", I wasn't really happy living as a female.
Hmm. . . well, I'm not really sure what's going on with me. I seemed quite straight until this year. Had crushes on males, now I don't. More attracted to women, it's their bodies. Male bodies don't really do it for me. I'm attracted to femininity, what can I say? Feminine males are alright.
(Of course, not all women.) The girls around me all seem to be rather airheaded (moreso than me) and the males. . . well, they're either obnoxious or I see them more as "buddies." Still with a male though, it's an anomaly that's what it is. He's feminine and rather intelligent I think.
Pansexual. (My attraction doesn't rely on genetalia nor gender identity. I'm attracted to intelligent, rational, yet playful people, who at least try and take some care of their bodies.)
Always considered myself such, just didn't always have the word for it.
I do find certain "looks" aesthetically pleasing, but they aren't specifically gender/sex bound either.
I think everyone is at least a bit bi-sexual.
I could be with anyone, as long as I love them. That is their personality, intelligence.
I've always been attracted to guys. Before transition I entertained the idea that if I were living as a guy I might date women. I did have a brief crush on a woman once, but it didn't last long and it wasn't really sexual in nature. I think it was more of an intense admiration. (It's funny, I can't even remember her name anymore. That's unusual for me.)
Now that I have transitioned, if anything I'm even more attracted to men. And more manly men, at that. I won't say never, but I think it's unlikely that I will ever date a woman.
(new member, hello)
I've always been attracted to men exclusively. I identified as bi for a few brief years in early adulthood because it gave me an excuse to consider myself queer while having a female body and dating men, but I eventually discovered that if you tell people you're bi they're going to expect you to be attracted to women. And I'm just not.
It was weird growing up because I would notice two completely different types of guys. It took me a really long time to sort it out and realize that I was only actually attracted to one type, and was only looking at the other type (the ones that looked disturbingly like they could be my twin brothers) because they looked the way I thought I should. I barely noticed girls existing at all, as long as they left me alone.
From puberty I started to realise that I was attracted to women and assumed I was a lesbian.
I identified as gay (I didn't like the lesbian label. Far to feminine. Haha) for a couple of years before learning about transitioning.
I now identify as straight.
I started feeling like a gay man from about 16 but only inside. I was always attracted to men more than women but had a few crushes on females. When I became sexually active, I found that I hated being with a man as a woman. I then thought that meant I was lesbian but that label only lasted until I slept with a woman and it did nothing for me. I am very attracted to men and the male genitalia. From about may last year I decided that I would like to live as a gay man, because being a straight woman is upsetting for me.
So I'm a gay guy. As much as I hate labels, that label works very well for me.
I identify as a straight male. I'm just not attracted in any way to males. Tried it once, really didn't like it. Earlier on in life, I refused the label 'lesbian' because I felt it didn't fit me. For good reason. :P
For me I was attracted to girls since young. Once I realized that I was seen as a girl things got complicated. I didn't want to date women because, since I was seen as female instead of male, then I would just be seen as a lesbian. For me- and probably many guys- that just seemed so wrong since I'm not a lesbian. I'm a guy, yet seen as female even from the woman I would potentially date. So, what's the point? Everybody would just see me for something I'm not (even more) and- at that time- not much was know about transsexuals. So, I just didn't date and had no desire to (especially with guys).
In my late teens I finally gave up and dated a few guys. I ended up meeting a guy and feel in love with his personality. I loved his gentle, more feminine side and he had no problem with role reversal. I just learned to look past his body and love the person inside. Sex did become an issue but it's amazing what the imagination can do during sex to help cope. ;)
However, over time it became harder to look past his male body and I found myself completely falling out of love with him. My dysphoria started to cause problems, frustration and grief for both of us (even though he didn't know the true reason). I thought if I got married and was a wife (though not a good one) that maybe I could get "over" my ->-bleeped-<- and just learn and accept to be female. That was a mistake. It never gets better- only worse.
I've looked at guys before and admired their nice bodies and genitalia always thinking "I wish I looked like that" and "I wish I had that". I'd see handsome men and wished I was a dashing attractive man like them. I never seemed to be sexually attracted to the appearances- just jealous. I guess I just became fascinated looking at things I so badly wanted but thought I could never have.
I got to a breaking point where I couldn't take anymore but didn't know what to do. Then I learned more about transsexuals, FTMs and learned that something
could be done for me. For awhile I was too scared to do anything and feared what would happen and what people would think. I got over that
huge hurdle and am now taking the steps toward becoming the man I really am.
tl;dr
I liked women, but eventually dated a few men and married one- but I'm still only attracted to women. I don't recommend it.

Thank you for putting how I felt into words. :D You said that perfectly.
<8: "I like everyone"
8-11: "My friend says that if I like girls I'm a lesbian and that's 'bad', so I guess I just like boys..."
12-26: "I'm bi, but it's a big dark secret I have to hide"
27-29: "I really don't want to be married to this man anymore, and I'm pretty sure I want to date women, and it wouldn't really bother me to never sleep with a man again, so I must be gay (but I sure don't like that 'lesbian' word still)..."
30-present (nearing 31, lol): "You mean I'm not stuck with the sex nature gave me? I can actually be who I've always been and thought that I couldn't/shouldn't be? Then I'm a guy. Definitely a dude. What's my sexuality? I like everyone!"
Basically I'm pansexual, although I tend to like female bodies a little tiny bit more than male bodies, but that changes depending on which day of the week it is, which direction the wind is blowing from, and many other random factors. ;)
In other news, this post made me realize it's almost been a year since I came out to myself as trans. What a long, weird, good, bad, up, down, overall positive, but still tiring, year it's been...
i consider myself pansexual/omnisexual/whatever. i like people more than their genital configuration, but i do tend towards more androgynous to feminine people, or at least balanced...not super macho dudes or hyperfemmes - REAL people. when i was younger i thought i was straight because that was the only option i knew about and didn't really care anyway. then, i fell in love with someone online and discovered my sexuality, had a couple months of "omg i cant be gay, gay is bad!" said screw it, and haven't really worried about it since. i like guys as a guy, girls as a guy, girls as a girl....but not so much guys as a girl, i just can't see how that would work. never tried, kinda want to, but don't really see it happening.
I'm straight. I only like girls. always have. nope my sexual orientation hasnt changed.
Straight. Love women always have. Experimemted with men to prove i was female-even got pregnant to prove i was female but that didn't work!!!!!! :D Still love women and hope thst it doesn't change once i'm on T
Knew I liked girls a *little* young. Smart enough not to say anything though :P
Like a lot of you guys, i refuse to identify as a 'lesbian'...
I suppose to a point I like guys. Just not nearly so much. That and the guys I like are gay (therefore are not interested because I don't pass worth a crap). ::) whatever.
I realized that I was bisexual in the eighth grade. I've been open about it ever since. There was a period of about a month when I was on the cusp of admitting to myself that I was transsexual that I called myself a lesbian, but that label really didn't fit right. I've always been attracted to straight women and gay men. My being transsexual really helped me to understand that.
I started out as Straight when I was Female, then I turned Bisexual when I was still Female. Then when I found out about my Transsexuality, I was still Bisexual. My sexuality and romantic orientation tend to shift once in a while, but in the end, I'm always Gay
I'll never feel as comfortable with a woman then I am with a man, no matter what gender I identify as at the time
I love women. Ever since I was 3 I've loved women. I can count on one hand how many guys I've had crushes/liked. Two. LoL. I idolize men and their style, but no way am I sexually attracted towards them.
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.
I have no idea! :-\
In elementary school, I liked boys.
But while I was younger, I liked girls.
In high school it got really confusing. I still liked guys, but I also liked girls at the end of the high school.
Now, I just don't know! ::)
I was thinking about all this, and I realized that I never really loved a guy, like DavisJ86 said - I just idolize them and their style.
So right now - I think I'm pansexual...
But still I like girls a bit more. 8)
In elementary school, I liked boys.
But while I was younger, I liked girls
You had a sexual orientation/preference before elementary school? Wow, and I thought I started young.
I'm pretty sure I did, explicitly sexual or not...I never had much interest in girls for...well, anything, really. Except that some of them do look very nice. From a distance. With clothes on.
I have always been interested in straight girls. And after some thinking and reminiscing I find that I have only ever been with straight women.
I slept with a lesbian once but there was a straight chick involved too so I don't count that!
I'm still interested in straight chicks. And I doubt I am alone in this but they scare me to death!! lol
I think chicks were designed to scare those of the opposite sex and interested in them!
I knew i liked girls from pretty early on - hough at school i always wanted to hang out with the boys, because pre-teen girls are just dumb (or thats what i thought aged 9/10) :) I've had crushes on most of my close girl friends but get on best with the dweeby, geeky gay guys who i always end up hanging out with. :) Interactions with straight guys are difficult, either i sense they might be into me (or i remember the potential that they might be) i am undemanding, laidback and easy top be around... and that makes me feel really uncomfortable and squirmy.
I self indentified as gay from my early teens (possibly even earlier) but was confused on occasion because i too had the 'really like this guys cos i want to be like him thing. Kissed a guy once too...so not my bag.:)
Anyway it's taken me 15 years to figure out that how i see myself with a women is not how lesbian woman see themselves with women (i think :~) and that maybe i'm not a woman afterall. Unlike a lot of you guys i did use the term lesbian though tended to prefer terms like butch/dyke. And i've never really been a convincing part of the 'lesbian scene' which when you want to date women can make things a bit tricky *sigh*
I'm yet another who found myself liking girls as early elementary school (incidentally, most of the girls I have fallen for resemble the girl I liked in first grade, although older). Nothing much has changed.
I guess I'm still trying to figure that all out. I think I lean towards liking guys more. I've only ever dated guys and I tend to notice guys more and think how attractive they are. But I don't really like really macho guys because most of them seem like jerks and most super feminine girls seem like witches (not sure the policy on swearing here, so I'll use the euphemism). I tend to go in the middle. When I'm watching tv shows or movies or other things (cough) with naked men or women, I tend to appreciate them both but neither one of them really turns me on... I only get really turned on when I think of people doing things to me specifically and that can be a male or a female doing those things-- it's the personal stimulation feelings that turn me on, not the people who I do them with. Does that make me asexual? So I guess maybe I'm just not sure at the moment. I'm confused.
I've always been bi, figured it out when I was 11 or 12 (maybe a year before I figured out that I was transsexual) and there hasn't been much debate since, although I have definitely been becoming gayer as time goes on, and I've realized a lot of my girl "crushes" have been along the lines of "I love her outfits! And her hair!"
My development of gender identity and sexuality have been very twisted and entangle. I don't really seem to fit labels nicely, but I feel the most affinity with the identification of "gay male". Though I've been in love with a girl and think girls can be attractive too. :-\

Yeah, I've definitely been there. It sounds like a wonderful opportunity to explore, though - try new things, find erotica outside of your usual range of gender, style etc., explore alternative sexualities, and so on. I find, myself, that most conventional, modern styles of femininity and masculinity turn me off. I prefer styles of expression that're more culturally and aesthetically appealing to me - fetishy, underground, and queer styles. That's not a blanket thing either, though - I like bears, but I can't stand the generic, A&F-wearing Castro Street clone guys. Some goth styles are beautiful; others make me think the person is stuck in middle school.
Then again, it's as much the individual person as anything. Hewing too closely to one's aesthetic preferences can border on prejudice - it's good to try to take each person as they come, and see more than just the exterior package. It all gets rather complicated at that point.
At any rate, have fun exploring! :)
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.

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.

Silly yet succinct. I love it. :)
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.
Troy
I was straight and now not so sure... :(
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?
The dimples on either side of the spine just above their butts :p
before I transitioned, and through growing up, I basically went for girls, even though none of the relationships I went into ever worked out for me, often most girls I tried to go with, just told me things like "I feel like I am talking to another girl", like a best friend too. Rather than a 'Lover'. So when it did eventually come to sex, it didn't do anything for me anyway, I had always had men crushes though, through out my life, and decided to eventually explore this instead, My first ever boyfriend called David, was a very sweet man, but we sadly drifted apart. Since him, I stayed exclusively to men, and prefer men to women. (I would NEVER date or attempt to date another woman now) Doesn't do a thing for me :) So I guess that means I am a straight Heterosexual woman now.
I like girls.Before I thought I liked guys,but that was cause I thaught I was supposed to.I also felt guilt every time I looked at naked women and liked it because I didn't want to be gay.I had crushes on men before but later in life I started falling for girls and it didn't bother me anymore.I identify as a straight man now.
I've always been Bi with an inclination towards women. I've been on HRT for over a year and I don't really have a stronger inclination towards men. For me it's more than just the physical...and I think I find solace in the heart of a woman. I identify as a lesbian publicly or I should say others see me as a lesbian since I stayed married to my wife. She also identifies publicly as female. I'm not quite fem nor am I butch. I'm just ME.
I just identify as a straight male. I like women and have always liked them. I can find men handsome and admire a good physique, but have only been sexually attracted to women.
I've always pretty much been attracted to men. I tried dating a woman once and it was super awkward, afterwards we painted each others nails and talked about men.
Guys. I like girls a little bit but certainly not enough to be bisexual, lolz. My sexuality was a lot more fluid when I was 12.
im straight ive liked girls since like 4th grade. before that i would get periodically obsessed with guys i thought they were crushes but it was just envy.
im straight. ive liked girls since prolly kindergarten and still do hhaha
I would consider myself bi although I like my women with a masculine edge.....
I like women. I've known it literally half of my life. I've liked a couple guys before, but interestingly enough they were feminine bi/gay men. Went out with one of them, but couldn't bring myself to kiss him. Blech.
I can't imagine ever being with a guy. No sexual attraction, and not emotionally appealing to me, either.
Women. They're my obsession. :laugh:
I identified as completely asexual when I was forcing myself to think I was female. I liked the idea of a lifelong commitment but sex was 100% out of the question. After figuring out my gender identity, I'm starting to lean towards demisexual as I have developed feelings for my girlfriend after knowing her for about a year, but it certainly didn't happen right away and I don't feel it for anybody else, hahah.
I'm pretty asexual at the moment. I've never really been in a relationship, though I was "boyfriend/girlfriend" with a few guys in middle school, which mostly consisted of sitting together at lunch and holding hands when our friends told us to. I don't think I've ever kissed anyone, although I think I remember one of my "boyfriends" kissing me a few times back then. I have to admit, I don't mind looking at pictures of attractive men or women, although I don't think I could ever have a relationship. The only sexual partner I need is Hitachi. I'm too selfish and lazy to actually cultivate and sustain a relationship and have no motivation to do so. I don't feel the need for that kind of connection in my life. I'm open to if that changes, but so far in my life, that's how I've been.
