Prior to realizing what I was, I would've classified myself as "straight w/ bi tendencies"  After finally figuring out and accepting that I was trans, I would classify myself the same way, only with the genders reversed, obviously.

There is a cool new term that I recently learned that would describe this well. "Heteroflexible" [Link].

QuoteHeteroflexibility is a form of a sexual orientation or situational sexual behavior characterized by limited homosexual activity despite a primarily heterosexual sexual orientation that is considered to distinguish it from bisexuality. It has been characterized as "mostly straight". Although sometimes equated with bi-curiosity to describe a broad continuum of sexual orientation between heterosexuality and bisexuality, other authors distinguish heteroflexibility as lacking the "wish to experiment with ... sexuality" implied by the bi-curious label. The corresponding situation in which homosexual activity predominates has also been described, termed homoflexibility.

This is it exactly, there are good and bad people of any gender.

As to the topic I never say never, but I haven't ever been attracted to anything but women and I don't expect that to change. I have to admit I have never had any emotional attraction to men either. So I picked lesbian.

If I imagine being with a man, as a woman, it appeals to my deepest emotions and turns me on unlike anything.  It also makes me wish to be submissive to him, which is an interesting experience since I like being in control.  Now if I think of being with a woman as a woman it's not outright disturbing but it just doesn't make my pulse race and warm my whole being like the opposite does.  So, I naturally conclude this means I'm a straight woman.

But then rarely, out of nowhere, I'll see a female who just has something about her that makes me very attracted.  And then... the moment passes and I wonder why the heck I felt that way.  Yet during these moments I could easily see myself as a lesbian.  This happens no more than maybe once in a month, but I'm a little bewildered and unsettled afterward. 

It may just be a "relapse" from being raised as male and expected to marry a girl some day.  Or maybe it's genuine, who knows.  Despite this though, I don't think of myself as bisexual since my attraction to guys isn't nearly so random or wishy-washy.  If I ever get married, it will definitely be to a guy.  =)

I think that omnisexual and pansexual is = Bisexual...   

but asexual is different..

I think the poll is wrong..  and bisexuals are more..   (sorry my english isn't good)

Guys tend to talk to other guys about women and its gross boring.  Men say very little beyond noting that they got some.  You want vivid, detailed and graphic accounts of sex, get girls talking to other girls.

I'm not sure if me identifying as straight would be correct, it's just easier to say, I guess I'd go with androsexual more than anything.

There is some truth to the bad stuff. But having seen things from a guy perspective , I don't think there is any reason to feel gloomy at all. So true.

I used to identify as heterosexual.
I like womens bodies. Now very often I feel mentally all females bore me.
Some males look handsome. I dunno how I can bond with them mentally.
So I say I just don't know.

I like people, just people

Hehe, the term is anything but new.  New to you perhaps.

I guess I would be considered as Pansexual. I have been in relationships with cis gendered men and women. Intersex people, trans, genderqueers, etc etc

For me, I become really attracted to someone's intelligence and personality. I know that is a phrase that is SOOO overused but to me, I really am attracted to someone's personality way more than anything else they present.

I've been with some attractive guys and girls but the relationship was very short because they lacked a personality I could get behind.

90% of my attraction to women in the past has been as role models.  I did get married, then divorced (for reasons other than my gender), and am now a friend and co parent with my Ex.  She was the agressor in our relationship from the get go, and the fact that we were simply good friends before sex and marriage entered the picture, I enjoyed her physical attention and affection to the point that sex, as the "bottom" for me was OK, and we did have 3 children that look too much like me to be able to blame the milk man.  When she divorced me for reasons of her own mental illness, I never did even seriously try to establish a relationship with other women, two dates I had since the divorce 26 years ago were "set up" dates by other family members, and were very un-satisfying.  (I was also too busy since I had custody of the children as a single parent.)  My relationships with other parents of either gender for 20 years were through the children and their activities, and none of them resulted in dates for me.  I did not want any.

Two years into HRT, I find that I do have fantasies about relations with both sexes, but with me always in a female role.  Some of them are real hot too.  My fantasies about males do involve some types of sex, and I often look with some interest in typical het fashion.  I am however too darn gun shy about most men since I have done the CD thing in the past, and Admirers are not my idea of possible partners.  I may turn out "Try-sexual" but it hasn't happended yet.  Fantasies with women seem to include more of a "mind" relationship with a very good looking woman who can still help me be a woman.

lol this is very true

And count me as another vote for boys are yummy

I have to agree that if you want all the details listen to women's conversations!  I used to work in a nearly all- female workplace and sometimes they would forget I was there.  Many men's performances were discussed 'at length'.

Yeah I do have to admit that I know a few guys that are not such bad people.  But then I have some close friends that I just get over the fact that they are disgusting..

To quote When Harry Met Sally...

"I"ll have what she's having."

Triple scoop yummy. 

I've had a lot of time, and experience to settle on this. For me it's, with no doubt, to the ladies. A cute face goes a long ways for me. And of course, without saying, that extends right on up to some of our friends here. 

For me I'll take a straight big man any day!, It just feels so normal to make a man happy & be myself, let him watch his football game later while I do my nails, go shopping or take a bubble bath, shave my legs nice & smooth.
