Recently I've been wondering about my sexual attraction to others, I know I like girls, but now I'm questioning something else. I have never had interested in men what so ever, but I don't want to sound really stupid or anything, but I'm also attracted to transmen one of the biggest ones were to my first crush so far. But, I'm not ever sure if it's transmen I'm attracted to or am I attracted to really butch females?

I feel alone and sorta stupid to ask this question, but has anyone else been only attracted to females and FtM's? Or being attracted to males and MtF's or something similar to that.

Well i think FtM are atractive but i feel bad sometimes b/c they're males and ima gay girl. Except when i really think about it, they are men so it changes my mind. Maybe if you think about it realise they're not lesbian butch, but a complete male. even tho u may know they still have a female body underneith.
MtF are atractive of corse too. No porblem there Emoticon: Tongue :p cept might not like the fact they might have a males body, but they are completely female.
I try not to really think about trans people as just transexuals, but who they truely are. be that male or female.
if that all makes sense xP

I totally understand your confusion! I also seem to be attracted to girls and transmen, even though I had thought I only like girls! Even if they identify as male, maybe it's just that when I know they still have the body of a female, some part of me still thinks of them as a female. I feel bad about that, because I try to see as the gender they want to be seen as, but I have several friends who are transmen, and some part of me just thinks of them as a butch female. So I totally get your confusion!

Okay, it's possible that you have the attraction because of the female body pre-transition.

But it's also possible you have the attraction if the transmen are pre OR post transition if perhaps it's more about personality. Obviously they really are men and want to be seen that way... but at some point in their lives, they were probably treated as women, had to deal with womens' issues and stereotypes, went through these struggles. It just might add to some of the attraction. And some transmen do have feminine features depending on how the T reacts to their bodies.
You're stubborn, hard headed, sheltered, impatient, angry, and altogether you irritate and frustrate me more than anyone else on the planet. I love you.
