I'm jealous.

Being attracted to a man is one female experience that eludes me. I do want to play the underneath role (but only with female parts, not what I have now). But I haven't yet seen a man I'm attracted to in any way.

Women are looking less attractive, perhaps because I can no longer take full advantage of their special parts and if I want to feel breasts, I can just grab my own chest, so that loses it's thrill. But that hasn't been replaced by attraction to men.

Sigh.

Well, I've been on teh 'Mones for 17 months, and this is the first time it's happened...so maybe there's a time span that happens before you "allow" yourself to see their smexyness.

It's a pretty powerful experience, here it is 4 hours later, and I'm still doing kegels and...errr....enjoying the memory.

Woof!

something like this happened to me when a bunch of shirtless guys were jogging by my car from the military base...

Pix or it didn't happen!  Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin' Hot night, wind was blowin' Where you think you're going, baby? ... Oh sorry! Got a bit carried away there.

I have noticed, since this has all started, I have felt a stronger attraction to men. I have always been bisexual, but ohhh boy~ Maybe it'll get stronger even yet! Already have to stop myself from drooling a bit, sometimes! I think I failed a little, today! 

I'm curious if the reverse has ever happened.  Has anyone who was straight take hrt and become a lesbian?  It seems like the hormones work in one direction from what I gather.  I guess that makes sense, but I don't know. 

I've always liked guys so hrt has done nothing for me.  Perhaps if I am on it long enough I will become super straight,lol.

I'm not sure of any orientation changes, but I have read that some girls become repulsed by the newly-detected male pheromones.

I wonder what brought that on? Maybe Beth you did have feelings for men before but you just didn't realize it or suppressed the thoughts.  With me I always thought I was bi but always had a strong leaning towards men. Now prior to hormones I could be into a woman physically. But now looking at a beautiful woman  does nothing for me at all. Men on the other hand is a different story I look at men from a whole new perspective and it's not just based on looks either. I've been into a man just because I thought he was sweet and considerate. But it also does help if the man is sweet considerate and hot!!!  Now women I wouldn't ever say I could never fall for a woman. But with women it's more of an emotional attraction and not a physical attraction.
But really I'm not really attracted by a persons gender I'm attracted to the person whether they be male or female (Preferably male  😉 ) I'm attracted to that person because I love them and want to be with them. If being trans has taught me anything it's that a person is more than their gender. 

Yes, before I HRT I considered myself bi...about 90% for women, 10% for men. (I actually told my therapist that if I were in a room with 10 men and 10 women, chances are I'd "do" 9 of the women and 1 of the men--meaning, 9 out of 10 women would excite me, but only 1 of the 10 men would get me "happy.")

This may have been the "one" that I'd have done (or who I'd allow to do me!).  😘 If it happens again in the near future, I will be able to say something is changing. A friend of mine said she'd changed once she got on HRT, in fact now she's wondering if she is "just" gay...

Well this just might be the one guy your into. Now if you get like me and go to gym everyday just to check out guys.  😉 Your sexuality may have changed but I bet it hasn't you just seen a cute guy and you can recognize that now that's all!  🙂

Right now my orientation is on that merry-go-round, unsure where it will stop. There's little libido to talk of, but I have been noticing both guys and girls.

Before HRT, I was only interested in girls.

Wherever I end up is just fine though 🙂

So, I think that I have only found men attractive in the "abstract".  That is, I find myself fantasizing about being swept off my feet by a chiseled hairless super-fit guy with a warm sensitive personality and a strong aggressive nature in the bedroom.  But when I think of guys in real life, they are overweight, hairy and repulsive.  However I find just about all women beautiful and I find myself hypnotized by them.

I think the idea of being with a man, for me is more about embracing womanhood than it is about sexual attraction.  I think I am attracted to the idea of being with a man only in the sense that it will make me feel more like a woman, and not so much that I'm actually attracted to them. 

Just my $0.02

That's the guy I saw today, LOL! They're out there...but yeah, most cis-guys are just slobs, imho.

That's how I've felt about men my entire life. I used to be so jealous of girls when I would see them with their boyfriends. Now I know I can have that too. one day.

I was and still am bi,I think I was attracted to women 75% men 25% now it's 50/50.If I have noodles I want rice tomorrow!

Do people still buy porn? There's so many free sites...

And in my life, I have more time than money...and one can't get STD's from the good friend at the end of one's arm (or the bed post LOL. 😉 )

I don't believe in being straight or gay. I think love runs deeper than just gender. Sure I'm mainly attracted to men but I would only be lying to myself to say I can't fall for a woman. I'm attracted to who the person is not whats between their legs. But the more I think about it the more I realize I'm bi. If I limit the people I date based on gender I'm basically passing up on a person who could be the perfect match for me.  😉

I understand that sentiment,  but people are different.   I know plenty of straight and gay people that can't fall for rhe opposite team.  I have always been romantically straight and physically bi.  The idea of being in a relationship with a woman is uncomfortable to me, so I can't help my limitations when I have no control over it.  At 4he end of the day, we all differ.

I just don't think sexuality is set in stone as some people believe it to be. In my case I think my sexuality has evolved as I've gotten older and have learned more about myself. I'm in a constant state change before hrt I thought I had it figured out but as my body and mind have changed so has my understanding of myself. I may be the extreme case because I'm on hormones but I believe our understanding of ourselves and our sexuality can change as we do.  😉
