A guy could enhance my female experience by being a gentleman, opening doors, lightly touching but never imposing, being protective, giving honest compliments, treating me with respect, being a good companion in public venues, and by dropping expectations of sex but still flirting.
Sooo what are you saying (?) .... you're expecting for a guy to "play along with you", "treat you like a woman", pay your drink, but with no reciprocal attraction whatsoever ....  :( ....

No serious physical contact, embracing, kissing, wandering hands .... ultimately that "very special thing" .... sex ?

That's like seeing a guy as an "accessory" .... absolutely unfair and sad !

Sorry, but guys are not there to "enhance your female experience" .... wow, even that phrase sounds like being in theme park or acting school ....

Laura .... ??? ....

Hi Laura,

Thank you for the valuable feedback. I came here hoping to learn more about myself and you have given me something to ponder. I have lived a number of years in a male role, but as a female, I am still at an adolescent stage. For me, I do feel like I am acting to some extent and still sorting out who I am as a female. Take care.

Heh, that sounds like my boyfriend. :)

Kind of confused on which way to vote... I'm M2F and mainly attracted towards girls. However, there have been some guys that I have really liked... I usually say I'm bisexual, but there's only been a few guys.

I want to be an M2F (haven't even started transitioning,) and I'm bisexual. Honestly, I'm open-minded about taking it in the ass or whatever. I just wish I wasn't so damn disgusting.

Poly dear, what do you mean? You're not disgusting, sweetie. You're just a person who has gotten a raw deal in terms of gender. And there are many who would love you as you are even before transition. Please don't ever think of yourself in this way again.

I'm androgyne, I spose I'm Bi-sexual. My preference is towards female and my experience towards male. But my experience is pretty damn limited anyway. I more a romance sort of person to a dry humping the furniture sort of person.

I appreciate the comment; I really do. The problem is that I know better. I'm not naive. Essentially, unless the god or goddess of beauty and perfection tells me otherwise, I know I look like a mangled car with no hope of ever being repaired completely.

Why though? Have you been dysfigured in an accident or something? if so, you're still lovable sweetie.

I am MtF and voted straight. I tried being with girls and gave that up years ago. I like guys but since I really don't want to be with a guy sexually in this body(makes me fell dirty for some reason) I guess I will have to wait till I get ME sorted out and then worry about that. So that part of my live is on hold for now

I am quite emotionally attached to men. Some people say that's the "woman in me" talking. I want to freaking snap their necks when they say that. A man can have emotions, damn it. So I consider myself gay, and strictly so. Sure, I'd have SEX with a woman, but I'm not particularly attracted to them. Now, I have noticed I am somewhat attracted to MtFs, but in a sick way almost, because I like their whole bodies, including the parts they DON'T like. Maybe it's safe to say I like ->-bleeped-<-s, because I wouldn't want to trigger dysphoria. But it's weird. Something about the female identity and the mostly female body is interesting to me... then again, I'm really not sure about all that. It's so confusing, I just say that I'm "curious" about transwomen, but that my orientation is gay

Hey, I think androgynous people are hot, whichever side they come from. I suppose a queer-theory purist might tell me I'm really "omnisexual" or whatever, instead of "bisexual" because my sexuality doesn't depend on a gender binary but is more drawn to the in-between. But I just keep on calling myself bi, I guess thinking it's good enough to go on using the term most people are already familiar with, too lazy to bother explaining a neologism all the time.
Here's what I find about compromise--
don't do it if it hurts inside,
'cause either way you're screwed,
eventually you'll find
you may as well feel good;
you may as well have some pride

Before HRT heterosexual.  Married three time to women.

After starting HRT, still heterosexual.  I'm find out that too much guys are way cute.  ;D

After transition, don't know. Guess I'll find out. ::)

Much Love,

I am a t-girl, and I am more attracted to women than men for love-making sessions.  But I occasionally have sex with men because some of them are fascinated by mixed gender bodies and are really turned on by my body, which I find is very erotic for me.  To be desired.......is an exciting thing.

im ftm, i voted straight cos i've only ever been attracted to women but if i met a guy that i was attracted to & could connect well with i wouldn't hold back on a relationship just because of a label.. so idk i guess i'm just open hah
;D

I've liked women all along, that never changed.... early on in transition I came to notice guys. HRT added to that I think. Now though I find a few attractive but don't want to get close. Kind of like, to use an analogy, a cake made of wax - looks good from a distance but not particularly yummy. :P

On the other hand I do find myself attracted to somewhat boyish women - truly they're the best of both worlds. They can look like cute guys but still have the softness, curves, etc that gals have, and they're so sweet and caring. Maybe I just want to have my cake and eat it too. :D

I am most definitely a lesbian.  I was attracted to women as a man and am still very much attracted to them as a woman.  I must admit however that there were a couple of occasions when men have flirted with me that I've flirted back, which is something that I would've never done as a male.  Go Figure! >:D

Well, it's still way up in the air for me, but at this point, I seem to be leaning very heavily towards straight - I like boys. ALOT.

I was never really into either before - I did have a relationship, and in fact a marriage, to a girl, but that was never really, to me anyway, a sexual attraction as much as a deep friendship ... with benefits. Neither did I really like the sex all that much.

Now though, ooooh... meanwhile, while I appreciate beautiful girls and such, it's more a question of comparing and trying to figure out how I could pull off whatever they are making look so easy.

So yeah, either my sexuality is only really emerging now, with the right hormones coursing around my system, or I was just so repressed as to be a zombie!
