This should be a fun topic, have any of your tastes or interests changed on HRT?

I don't necessarily mean in food (unless that's a passion of yours). I mean more along the lines of music, movies, TV.

Have you found something that you absolutely loved no longer interests you at all?

Good topic!  I enjoy clubbing now - I'll listen to dance and dubstep in my car and at home.  I also find myself leaving music on or the television on to keep my company when no one else is home.  I used to play vid games a lot - that's ebbed.  It doesn't make sense to me to play them alone anymore.  Basically, I've become a helluvalot more social.

No... but my passion towards things I like, and things I don't like has strengthened. I used to dislike physical labor, now I absolutely hate it. I used to like make up, now I absolutely love it. I used to like men ... now I drool over them

I used to not like talking to people, but now I do.

I was watching The Daily Show from Thursday with Esperanza Spalding. I was really into it and it just got me thinking because it's not really the type of music I listen to.

Hm, I used to absolutely hate dancing, but now, when I listen to music alone, sometimes, I dance a little and find it somewhat fun. I would never do such an embarrassing thing in public, but still.

Apart from that, uhm, my interest for video games seems to have decreased a little, but not much.

My interest in talking and singing has significantly decreased, but that's just because my voice is rotting.

Not really. I have been happier, and thus I tend to be a bit more open-minded.

I still listen to all the crappy heavy metal and '80s rock I used to listen to. 

I have definitely gone of anything in the way of fiction, be it books, TV or movies that has any violence or even aggression in it.   I now find myself turning off the news if there is something really traumatic on as well, especially if it involves children. 
Musically I am more into female artists, and have started to listen to singers like Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Christina Aguillera.  I have gone off Metal a fair bit too.
I still like playing loud rock and blues on Bass or Guitar though.

I no longer fly - I let my certification lapse - and I now enjoy clothes shopping.

I get more emotional when hearing needless violence or distressing situations on the news or in the papers. I've also lost a lot of interest in competitive contact sports - I rarely play football(soccer) but have started going on long runs a lot more.

Oh, and I still hate going clubbing

he he I could not have put it any better myself

I cry more, rarely but before HRT i never cried unless it really hurt me super bad and even then sometimes the tears just won't flow out.

I also get more emotional about things, i still love video games.

Someone said about enjoying dancing, i do enjoy dancing nowadays whilst before i never danced.

Lost all interest in sports

and i think that's about it lol.

Amelia NO!

Men.

Even when they just come up and ask me if they can have sex, I still like them. What sort of chat line is asking for sex BTW? Geez, I had another guy this weekend go exactly to the sex request. Then it went to begging and then it got so boring, and then my drink was spiked. Then I managed to lock myself in the car for several hours. Thank goddess. Felt like crap on toast the next day

But they are still cute.

Just not that one. He will burn.

Not good to hear that Cindy.. Having been a victim of drink spiking twice, you have my sympathy.. And yes, you do feel like crap the next day..

Have been thinking about this question lately,

Almost to the hour that my girl side hit the world in 3D after being in hiding for 50years I noticed my tastes in music, culture, tv, and even my art (I'm a professional artist) seemed to change, I actually can't understand why...but I like it a LOT, it feels more like the real me which I have always considered female is finally breathing fresh air instead of the "recycled" air from this male body that mother nature mistakenly gave me.

 I find that I like video games less than I used to... which is probably healthy in the long run. Overall, though, my tastes have not changed.

My taste buds have not changed lol but my taste in activities and such has changed just slightly.

Is there something that you just loved as a guy (minds out of the gutter, ladies) that you just lost interest in?

Letting your pilot license lapse would certainly qualify given what you have to do to get one...

The only think I have noticed was I like to shop more than I used to. I loathed having to try on clothes etc. Now it's fun.
