Autoandrophilia refers to a person assigned female at birth (typically cisgendered) who is sexually aroused by the thought or image of being a cis-man. Its counterpart is autogynephilia, which refers to a person assigned male at birth who is sexually aroused by the thought or image of being a cis-woman. There are four subtypes of this form of fetishism: Transvestic autoandrophilia/autogynephilia: arousal to the act or fantasy of wearing typically opposite gendered clothing Behavioral autoandrophilia/autogynephilia: arousal to the act or fantasy of doing something regarded as opposite gendered Physiologic autoandrophilia/autogynephilia: arousal to fantasies of body functions specific to people of the opposite sex Anatomic autoandrophilia/autogynephilia: arousal to the fantasy of having a normative opposite sexed body, or parts of one So there we have it folks. I've been this way for as long as I can remember, only recently discovering that it had a name. The sensation of having male *ahem* "parts", is so real to me sometimes, its as if I have phantom limb syndrome! I do believe this ties in very much with my gender identity/fluidity, but always felt as if it somehow went against the fact that I'm a lesbian. Its the reason why I can enjoy watching gay porn or a man performing solo sex because I use them (and the images they provide) for sexual surrogacy. Does anyone else have a similar experience or understanding of this? I'd love to hear from you! Do you have a weird or unusual fetish? Please dont't be too graphic.
My girlfriend is like this. She loves being a woman, but she loves the thought of taking the male role and even being a man sometimes. I find it very sexy even though I'm a cisfemale lesbian. I love masculinity in women. :3 It's a normal fetish to me! I find it endearing. ^-^
